Okavango Delta

Overview
Experiences

The Okavango Delta is the world's largest inland delta, and produced by seasonal flooding. It is formed where the Okavango River empties into the Kalahari Desert and most of the water is lost to evaporation and transpiration. A maze of lagoons and islands cover some 15,000 sq kms and the region is world renowned for its biodiversity and contrasts – a must see on any safari to experience the incredible bird, plant and reptile species found in the aquatic habitat of the Okavango Delta.

Okavango Delta - Duba Plains

Duba Plains Camp lies in one of the most remote reaches of the Okavango Delta in an area renowned for the endless conflict between prides of lions and the herds of buffalo, which sustain them. The camp is built on a large island shaded by trees and surrounded by expansive plains which are seasonally flooded. The real treat here is its exclusivity and is particularly suited to those who want to be in a truly remote reserve.

Selinda Canoe Trails

There are few places on earth where humans have not walked. Yet deep in the Selinda Reserve, a private concession in north-eastern Botswana, there are such places. Here are vast areas of woodland, places never exposed to human pressures, a place where wildlife can breathe freely. The area is well known for elephant, buffalo, sable, roan, wild dog and it is possible to encounter cheetah, lion, leopard and a variety of other species and is a birding paradise.

Okavango Delta - Camp Okavango

Camp Okavango sits in the heart of the Okavango Delta on Nxaragha Island. Its main lodge features a bar, sitting area and library, with the dining room leading onto an expansive open-air patio where evenings around the fire can be enjoyed. Accommodating just 24 guests, the tented rooms are raised on teak platforms with ensuite facilities and private viewing decks. All game viewing activities are conducted by experienced guides and include exploring the area by mokoro or motorboat and tracking the larger game species on guided walks on the many surrounding islands.

Okavango Delta - Pom Pom Camp

In the heart of the Okavango Delta within the Matsebe Concession Area, Pom Pom Camp is another jewel in Botswana’s crown! Here hippo grunt and frolic in front of camp’s permanent lagoon that is surrounded by miles of reeds. In a clear water oasis, a mokoro ride offers you a wonderful means of viewing wildlife as you glide between palm fringed islands.

Okavango Delta - Gunn’s Camp

Overlooking the legendary Chiefs Island, Gunn’s Camp is one of the last few remaining luxury, vintage safari camps, set under leafy palms and African Ebony to blend naturally with the unique surroundings. The accommodation offered consists of six traditionally furnished, deluxe Meru style tents with ensuite bathrooms featuring standalone baths and outside private showers. Set on raised platforms and connected to the main camp by raised walkways, this is the ideal place for a more intimate and personalised safari experience, with all tents discreetly set apart ensuring privacy and tranquillity.

Okavango Delta - Xakanaxa Camp

As the custodians of one of Botswana’s very first safari camps, the owners of Xakanaxa Camp (pronounced Ka-ka-na-ka) have gone to extraordinary lengths to preserve its original African bush camp character, whilst always providing guests with every comfort. Its prime location on the banks of the Khwai River on the Xakanaxa Lagoon in the heart of the Moremi Game Reserve ensures that it is one of the only safari camps which can provide guests with an authentic, year round Okavango Delta land and water safari experience.

Okavango Delta - Kwara Camp

Kwara Camp is situated on the edge of the permanent waters of the Okavango Delta and shares a common boundary with the Moremi Game Reserve. The presence of permanent water ensures year round game viewing and mokoro trips (traditional canoes) can take place in shallow water throughout the year.

Okavango Delta - Sanctuary Stanleys Camp

Sanctuary Stanley's Camp is a classic tented camp with just eight tents built around an imposing sausage tree on a private concession overlooking the Okavango floodplains. The area around the camp changes with the seasons - from lush green when the rain flows down from the Angolan highlands to dry savannah when the Kalahari Desert tightens its grip.

Okavango Delta - Sanctuary Chiefs Camp

Sanctuary Chief's Camp is located on Chief's Island, one of the many islands created by the seasonal floodwaters of the Okavango. The island was named after Chief Moremi, the hereditary king of the area who used the lands as his royal hunting grounds. The vast number of animals who congregate here make it easy to understand why the area was put aside for the chief. It was Moremi's people, the Tawana, who turned it into a reserve where animals are protected.

Okavango Delta - Sanctuary Baines Camp

Sanctuary Baines' Camp is located on a huge private concession bordering the Moremi Game Reserve in the Okavango Delta, home to some of the most spectacular wildlife on Earth. This is Sanctuary's smallest and most intimate camp, with only five luxurious suites.
