A Typical Day at Chisa Busanga Camp

Morning:
As dawn breaks over the Busanga Plains, you're gently awakened by the sounds of the wild. Step out onto your private deck, elevated among the trees, to take in the sweeping views of the mist-covered plains. Enjoy a steaming cup of coffee as the sun begins to rise, painting the landscape in soft golden hues. After a light breakfast, set out on a guided morning game drive in an electric vehicle. The receding waters of the plains attract a variety of wildlife—wildebeest, zebra, and impala grazing peacefully, while predators like black-maned lions and cheetahs stealthily patrol the area. Your expert guide shares fascinating insights about the ecosystem and its inhabitants, making this an unforgettable start to your day.

Midday:
Return to camp as the heat of the day sets in, and indulge in a hearty brunch served in the elevated boma, where you can continue to enjoy the panoramic vistas. The midday hours are perfect for relaxation—take a dip in the solar-powered plunge pool or retreat to your Nest for a restful nap. For those with a curious mind, the camp’s library offers a collection of books and artifacts that delve into the rich natural and cultural heritage of the Busanga Plains. Or, simply sit back on your deck, letting the tranquility of the surroundings wash over you.

Afternoon:
As the afternoon cools, embark on a walking safari guided by local experts. This intimate exploration allows you to connect with the smaller wonders of the plains—from intricate insect life to the vibrant bird species that call this place home. With over 470 bird species recorded, including the endangered wattled crane and the elusive Pel’s fishing owl, this experience is a must for bird enthusiasts. For a different perspective, consider an electric mountain bike ride across the plains, guided by someone who knows the terrain intimately, revealing hidden gems and stunning viewpoints along the way.

Evening:
As the sun begins to set, casting a warm glow over the plains, return to camp for a sundowner on your deck. Enjoy a refreshing drink while watching the silhouettes of elephants and antelope against the fiery sky. Dinner is served under the stars, a delicious blend of local and international dishes prepared with fresh ingredients. Afterward, gather around the campfire or relax in the boma, sharing stories of the day’s adventures with fellow guests.

Night:
For those eager to continue exploring, a night drive offers the chance to witness the nocturnal wonders of the plains. Glide silently through the darkness in an electric vehicle, spotting lechwe, porcupines, and perhaps even a lion on the prowl. As the night deepens, return to your Nest, where the sounds of the African wilderness lull you to sleep, surrounded by the serenity of the Busanga Plains.
