Mombo Camp

Photograph by Wilderness Safaris
Elegant and exciting Mombo is
located at the tip of Chief's Island in
the Moremi Reserve. This area is crowded with big game, especially the
great predatory cats. As you relax on your private deck or nap in your
own sala you can look down on the floodplain and often see animals
passing under the raised walkway that connects Mombo's 9 luxurious
tented rooms. Thrilling game drives in open Land Rovers are followed by
superb food and wine provided by the camp's renowned chef.

For those who prefer a more intimate but no less
luxurious
experience,
Little Mombo could be the perfect choice.Its
three spacious,
comfortable rooms are
connected by raised wooden walkways to a charming
lounge, dining area and plunge pool. Game
viewing is superb and may
even include sightings of the rare wild dog.
Vumbura Plains

In a remote area of the
northern Okavango are two 14 bedded camps
linked by raised walkways. In these top of the line camps each room has
a bedroom, lounge, sala for outdoor snoozing, and its own plunge pool,
as well as en suite bathrooms and additional outdoor showers under the
stars. The decor is spare and modern, the effect spacious, light and
airy. All game viewing activities are available at Vumbura Plains
except when high water levels make Land Rovers impractical.
Jao

Designed by distinguished
architects, each of the nine
beautiful rooms at
Jao Camp is unique. Each features its own "sala" where you may take
your siesta out of doors listening to the voices of birds and enjoying
a view of the floodplain (if you can keep your eyes open). Raised
walkways connect the rooms to lounge, bar and plunge pool and to Jao's
unique feature-a salon offering a wide range of massage therapies. Jao
is on the outer edge of the Moremi Reserve. Water activities are
emphasized, but there are fine game drives in the dry season.
Abu Camp

Set in an ancient, riverine
forest the 6 custom designed tents
of Abu
Camp offer perhaps the ultimate in exclusivity. Each tent has its own
deck overlooking a lagoon teeming with bird and animal life. The lounge
and dining area are on platforms that wind around old ebony and
sycamore fig trees. Most remarkably Abu is host to a family of 8
elephants with which you may interact, walking with them in the bush,
coming to know intimately each of these vastly intelligent giants. This
is a magical experience that for many visitors has changed and enriched
their entire view of the animal world. As if this feature of Abu were
not enough, game viewing by both land and water are excellent. Across
the lagoon Abu Private Villa will accommodate four guests or a family
with children.
Little Vumbura

Located on an island in the
Vumbura Private Reserve, this
intimate camp
offers every kind of African game viewing, although drives in 4x4
vehicles are restricted during periods of high water. Guided walks on
the larger islands allow one to listen to the innumerable soft voices
of Africa and draw strength from its silences. After such a day the
pleasures of the camp-its good food and convivial gathering-are
welcome, as are its six tented rooms, each with en suite bathrooms and
our usual soft beds.
Xigera Camp

Lovely, tranquil Xigera lies in the heart of a riverine forest
on
permanent water. You will view its abundant wildlife from dugout
canoes, on guided walks, and, water level permitting, on game drives
through the Moremi Reserve. Xigera's 10 comfortable tented rooms and
lounge area are reached by crossing a bridge beneath which a long sand
trap records each night the passage of the camp's four-footed visitors.
Tubu Tree

Tubu Tree Camp accommodates
guests in five comfortable tents
on raised
platforms each with its own small deck, en suite bathroom and outdoor
shower. You may enjoy both land and water wildlife viewing and can
expect to see a diverse crowd, including elephant, zebra, giraffe,
lion, wildebeest, kudu, red lechwe, leopard and bushbuck to name only a
few.
Seba Camp
The 5 tented rooms of this new camp in
the heart of the
Okavango Delta
overlook a lagoon full of birds and animals. At night you will hear the
roars of an exceptionally large pride of lion out on the floodplain,
and on a game drive you will almost certainly see them. But Seba has as
well a very special feature. It is a base for research into elephant
behavior and a centre for wildlife film making. Guests have the chance
to talk with wildlife scientists and satisfy their curiosity in the
camp's excellent reference library. This is a unique travel
experience.
Jacana Camp

Jacana is a true water camp offering
mokoro and
walking
safaris all
year around. Herds of beautiful red lechwe and even the shy sitatunga
antelope can be seen as your boat slips along banks of papyrus and
pushes aside the crowds of water lilies. This is a bird lover's
paradise, but even the big game is never far away. 5 Traditional meru
style tents have en suite bathrooms that are enclosed but open to the
sky. The cozy pub and lounge include an area where you may sit by an
open fire under the stars.
Kwetsani
On a remote island in the Delta Kwetsani Camp is surrounded by
palm,
mangosteen and fig trees. Under this shady canopy Its five spacious
"tree house" chalets are raised on stilts permitting wonderful views of
the animals on the floodplain below. Game viewing is tremendously
various but always fascinating whether from a dugout canoe or an open
Land Rover. In winter when the flood waters literally lap at the door
you will be taken by boat to vehicles waiting on another island and
from there to the amazing sights of a successful game drive.
Chitabe Camp

Chitabe is located on one of
the most beautiful islands in the
Delta.
Bordered on three sides by the Moremi Reserve the area is host to an
astonishing assortment of wildlife. You will see many of the big
predators and their prey during a day time game drive. At night you
will glimpse the secret lives of nocturnal animals such as civet,
serval, pangolin, porcupine and aardwolf. 8 spacious East African style
tents with en suite bathrooms welcome you at the end of a thrilling
day. The camp owners, Dave Hamman and Helen Heldring are authors of an
acclaimed book on the wild dogs of the area and Chitabe lies within a
3000 sq. km wild dog study area.
Chitabe Lediba

Like its sister camp, Chitabe Lediba is near the border of the
Moremi
Reserve in an area of great habitat diversity. As at Chitabe the 5
large, comfortable tents are on raised platforms, as are the lounge and
dining area. There are 2 family tents with adjoining rooms and a full
sized swimming pool. Day and night game drives are the chief activity,
but viewing does not end when you climb out of your Land Rover. The
camp overlooks a waterhole where elephants and many plains animals come
to drink during the day.
Duba Plains
Photograph by Wilderness Safaris
Remote and intimate, the camp at Duba Plains
accommodates a
maximum of
12 guests. Its 6 roomy tents are shaded by tall ebony, fig and
mangosteen trees. From the swimming pool you will have a wonderful view
of the floodplain with its super-abundant wildlife, including many
spectacular birds like the Slaty Egret and Wattled Crane. The area is
known for huge herds of buffalo and attendant lion prides. Grisly kill
scenes are a common feature of game drives at Duba. The concession is
part of the Okavango Community Trust, which trains local people to
protect and administer this region as a photographic safari
preserve.
