Large suites decked out in soothing earth tones in the heart of excellent wildlife country make Baobab Ridge an excellent choice. Freestanding bathtubs and enclosed private terraces are all a part of the experience, while guided drives and walks (walking safaris cost extra) make for a fine bush experience.
