Sedadamas kingdom reaches a savage chapter

Belmond Safaris invited Mmegi’s intrepid traveller THALEFANG CHARLES* to their luxury camp in Savuti to catch up with the status of the world famous Savuti Marsh pride of lions and how they are doing after a long period without tourists

From the intermittent flooding of the mystic Savuti Channel to the unbelievable fishing leopards and extremely successful pride of lions, Savuti, is a place of wonder.
