Onguma – Bush Camp

 

Location

A blend of rustic grace and luxurious design, Onguma Bush Camp is located in the confines of the Etosha National Park in some of Namibia’s best game-viewing land.

Lodge and Accommodation

Nature’s elegance is woven into each trimming of this modern and luxurious camp, where fine lines and authentic materials interweave to create an experience that is as pleasing to the senses as it is to the sustainability of the African wilderness. Guests can soak in the sun on the deck or in the pool. Children will love the games room, whilst adults will enjoy the peace of the lounge and dining areas, where views overlook the waterholes and other areas that the big game love to visit.

Of the camp’s 16 rooms, each carries a unique style that will keep travellers comfortable and within sight of the local animal attractions. From the 5 Standard Rooms, which hold three rooms and a loft area, the Family Unit with four beds and ample room, to the 3 Rondavels and Settlers Room, each suite overlooks either the pan, or the swimming pool. Wherever you turn there’s bound to be fun and adventure awaiting you, or perhaps a few quiet moments of peace and quiet to appreciate a good book. Allow the dedicated staff to help bring any of your desires to life.

Activities and Wildlife

With more than 300 species of birdlife within its borders, innumerable game and the Big 5 animals of Africa, Onguma provides the experience you’ve been waiting for. Choose to experience the morning safaris, where you’ll traverse vast stretches of different biomes, where the game of the park regularly pass on their morning errands.

The sundowner drive will sate your thirst as the sun goes down. Here, as night approaches, the animals flourish into activity and you treble your chances of making that prized sighting. Expert guides and trackers take you out on bush walks, where you’ll learn where to look for spoor and other markings, seeing how the landscape paints a picture of each mammal that has passed through its channels.

If you’re patient, a visit to the Onkolo Hide will provide you with ample viewings of birdlife and mammals alike, as they drink from the pan’s cool waters, satiating their thirsts. Private game drives are another option available, where you customise the trips to your liking. You dictate the hours you’re out and the direction you’d like to explore.
