Botswana / Camp Okavango

Hidden beneath the pyramidal crowns of mangosteen trees in a permanent section of the Okavango Delta, the camp offers a year-round water based experience with exciting opportunities to explore by motorboat and mokoro safaris, the mokoro trips in particular enabling guests to quietly approach smaller wildlife.

The camp’s interconnected walkways and ramps lead to viewing decks and an excellent range of amenities including seating areas, fire pits and an attractive rim flow pool, whilst the spacious suites themselves are built on raised platforms to provide expansive views over the Delta. The traditional thatch and reed lodge has a dining room which leads to an open-air patio that’s ideal for brunch, afternoon tea and convivial get-togethers round the fire. The camp is fully solar powered. Nearby islands offer the chance to track larger land-based animals on guided walking safaris; birders will delight in the abundance of freshwater species including the white-backed night heron and rare Pels Fishing Owl. Anglers, too, will be in their element with opportunities to catch tiger fish and bream.
