Delta Camp, Okavango Delta, Botswana

Delta Camp is set in the forest of a large, beautiful and palm-studded island on the south western edge of Chiefʼs Island, bordering the Moremi Game Reserve in the heart of the Okavango Delta.

Accommodation is for a maximum of 16 guests in spacious lethaka (reed) chalets with en-suite bathrooms. Built of natural materials and elevated off the forest floor, each chalet has hot and cold running water, a shower with a view, and solar-powered electric lighting.

Each room is different in design and décor, adapted to fit around the ancient trees of the island forest, open to the spectacular natural environment, and positioned to capture the best views of the landscape. Delta Campʼs guests enjoy the luxury of their own private guide. Our guides are locals – this is a man of the swamp, born and raised in the area, and you will spend your days in his mokoro (pl. mekoro), gliding through the floodplains and channels, and walking under his guidance on some of the many islands in the area, taking in the magnificent scenery and light as well as the abundant game and bird-life of the Okavango. Dine in the elegant dining room overlooking the sweep of the Delta, viewing the surrounding floodplains and the wildlife that abounds. Take a picnic lunch and go out for the whole day, wandering some of the many nearby islands for a secluded and intimate experience.
