Any opinions on which camp (A Wilderness would be good) is most like Wilderness's Savuti camp (not the savute elephant camp)?

Do you mean in place of? In the same general area?

There is another wilderness camp at the far end of Savuti if I remember correctly, think we mentioned it in our trip report. Will have to go back and look to be sure, but I do know that this other camp also tour many parts of the Savuti area.

Actually all of the camps we were at I would say are similar in nature. Some differences, but nothing I would call extensive. Some are larger (more tents) but not significantly larger and some are maybe 1/2 the total size in number of tents.

Mombo was of course much more lavish in the nature of the accomadations and facilities, the water camp was similar in nature. The River Club is just plain different.

I guess just want different scenery, but liked Savuti and its staff (can you remember the first name of the manager ? we have forgotten it.

do NOT read anything negative in this post we really liked Savuti.

Wife seems interested in the elephants that you ride at abu camp -ever been there??

We have been very lazy about writing the trip report. We will try to have something together in a week or so.
