Botswana: Ker & Downey - Shinde Footsteps Launch

Ker & Downey Botswana

SHINDE FOOTSTEPS LAUNCH

Ker & Downey Botswana is excited to launch the rebuild and rebrand of Shinde Footsteps.

Shinde Footsteps, previously known as Footsteps Camp, is an intimate camp located in the Shinde Private Concession.

Shinde Footsteps is open to all guests, not only families and walking enthusiasts. The camp has remained intimate, accommodating just six guests in a choice of twin, double or family tent. Activities on offer include game drives, night drives, walking safaris, boating, mokoro excursions and fishing.

MORE ON THE REBUILD

This classic adventure camp has retained its delicate footprint and charm as a discerning safari experience. Whilst days are spent exploring the wilderness areas, evenings are wound away around the fire, down on the Kalahari sand.

The main area comprises of a dining mess in addition to a lounge, both with views over a permanent hippo pool. A photo editing suite and guest toilet complete the main area.  

Guest accommodation is simple yet comfortable canvas tents on decks, comprising of an en-suite bathroom, indoor and outdoor shower. The Shinde Footsteps family tent encompasses two bedrooms and a shared ensuite bathroom. 

A huge amount of work has gone into upgrading all the back of house facilities including a full solar array, waste management system and new staff village.
