Light aircraft Maun to Selinda Airstrip ~40–45 min or fly from Kasane ~45–50 min. Fro the Airstrip to camp ~25–45 min by open 4×4 vehicle. When water levels are high, transfers may combine a short drive + boat. All Great Plains rates include the seat-in-plane inter-camp air transfers (min 2 nights; regional rules apply).
All suites feature a plunge pool, mosquito-netted king/twin beds, lounge, indoor/outdoor shower, and a shaded deck. For families or two couples, the Selinda Suite delivers space and private staff + vehicle.
Great Plains camps are known for interactive kitchens that become a social hub. Menus have a plant-forward influence (the founders are plant-based) but always include quality proteins; expect refined bush cuisine, private deck dinners and thoughtful cellar pairings.
Neutral layers for cool winter dawns (Jun–Aug), a light rain shell (Nov–Mar), polarized sunglasses, wide-brim hat, swimsuit (plunge pool), soft daypack, and a soft duffel that meets bush-flight rules.
Plan 3 night and ask guides to work the Spillway edges at first/last light for cats. In drier months, double-down on long land drives and photographic hides. When water rises, request a boat in/drive back combo for variety. Private heli flips over the Spillway are spectacular.
Levy proceeds support anti-poaching, habitat protection and community partnerships. Camp operations follow low-impact with solar-led practices suited to this sensitive floodplain system.
