Camp Details

4.8 / 54 ratings

The principle underpinning Delta Camp is that the Okavango was, in its prehistoric form, pristine, and that every intervention comes at a cost to that pristine natural and cultural environment. Delta Camp’s vision strives to consider every action and to understand that each has a mitigating factor and a concomitant benefit. With each ‘pro’ weighed carefully against its ‘con’, they offer guests the highest standards of comfort consistent with the pure elegance of the environment itself.

Scattered in the forest of a large, beautiful and palm-studded island deep in the Okavango Delta, Delta Camp’s chalets are designed and built to take advantage of the many indigenous, old-growth trees of the island forest. The buildings cannot improve upon the natural landscape; they must therefore blend into it as unobtrusively as possible. This sometimes means that a tree grows through a roof or a floor, it always means that you will find no glass in the windows and it very often means that the building itself is elevated onto a deck. Each spacious, elegant chalet is individually designed and decorated to fit discreetly into its setting and to take advantage of the spectacular views of the surrounding bush and flood-plains.

WHY CHOOSE DELTA CAMP?

  • Delta Camp offers the purest traditional Okavango Delta experience – local guides, hand-made wooden dug-out mekoro, no motorised activities and no generators in camp.
  • The emphasis at Delta Camp is on peace and tranquility.
  • The Okavango has earned its reputation as one of the world’s premier wilderness areas.

Questions about Delta Camp

Are there any motorised activities at Delta Camp?

No. The camp deliberately runs no motorised activities and no generators, and gets around by hand-made wooden mekoro poled by local guides. It is the most traditional way to experience the Okavango, and it suits travellers who value quiet and detail over covering large distances.

What are the chalets like?

Each is individually designed to sit into the island forest rather than dominate it, which sometimes means a tree grows up through a roof or floor, always means there is no glass in the windows, and often means the chalet is raised on a deck. Views look out over the surrounding bush and floodplains.

Who does this camp suit?

Guests who want peace and a light footprint more than a checklist of sightings. The camp is scattered through the forest of a large palm-studded island deep in the Delta, and every decision about building and running it is weighed against its impact. Rates start from around US$562 per person per night.
