Chisa Busanga Camp’s woven Nest rooms are fast becoming one of the most iconic examples of contemporary safari architecture. Inspired by the weaver bird nests in the area, Chisa is perhaps the first property in Africa to adopt not only its shape, style, and structure from nature but also its materials and building processes.

Chisa Busanga Camp is entirely solar-powered and is the only camp in the Busanga Plains to operate Silent Safaris, where electric game-drive vehicles (which are also recharged with solar power) with no intrusive engine noises enable guests to get that much closer to the wildlife.

The four units are built four metres off the ground and shaded by terminalia trees. You are treated to expansive views from your luxurious beds, private outdoor deck and indoor/outdoor shower. Wooden steps lead you to your haven in the trees, which is lined in canvas tenting and fitted with a modern en-suite bathroom and king size bed covered in soft linens. Weaver birds are masterful little builders that knit together twigs and grass, which they line with feathers to create a cosy cocoon for their chicks. We like to think the Chisa Busanga Nests reflect the same loving detail and dedication that they put into nest building.
