Bush Nights are an optional extra available to all guests who stay for a minimum of four nights at Beho Beho. Starting in mid afternoon guests will leave the camp by vehicle accompanied by an armed guide, when conditions allow they will leave the vehicle and walk with the guide for approximately one to two hours through the splendid isolation of the Selous wilderness until they arrive at their Bush Camp.
This is no ordinary Bush Camp, there are only two tents, suitably located for privacy along the edge of the Beho Beho sand river. Each tent, or bush gazebo, is mostly constructed from gauze to increase the bush feeling and is totally insect proof. It also has the added advantage of an en-tent shower and loo, a 'proper' double bed and of course is sumptuously decorated with lots of '1001 nights' touches which will no doubt surprise, if not delight!
Guests will be able to have a hot shower on arrival, be served a full 'camp style' dinner in a gazebo set up in the dry river bed and then enjoy an evening under the stars around the camp fire entertained and protected by their safari guide.
After a romantic night of star gazing and listening to bush sounds, the dawn will bring birdsong and early morning tea, before heading off on foot to see the animals at their most prolific, returning to the bush camp after two hours to find the breakfast table all ready and waiting and a suitably attired chef to cook up a gourmet breakfast.
The intrepid guests will then be taken back to camp by safari vehicle and resume the rest of their Beho Beho safari itinerary. Supplementary cost - fully inclusive.
Bush Nights must be pre-booked and are not available to be purchased in the camp.
This kind of option is fraught with local difficulties, rain, heat , dust, mud, insects, animal movements etc etc - so all bush nights will be operated at the discretion of the senior guide in camp at Beho Beho. The guide will decide which is the most suitable night of the four nights stay that guests will be able to enjoy this activity. If for whatever reasons the guests are not able to participate in this activity a full refund will be given to the booking agent and a complimentary voucher for a bush night in the future will be given to the guests.
Beho Beho is closed from 01 April to 15 June each year
