Little Vumbura Camp, Okavango Delta, Botswana
A Luxury Tented Camp in Botswana
Camp Details
Wilderness Little Vumbura is set on a compact island with endless views of the floodplains. Bring your family and friends and take over all six tented suites. With few boundaries from the bush, wildlife seems almost within arm’s reach.
Marvel at the sheer size of a buffalo herd, (hundreds-strong) moving between islands. Keep a lookout for endangered African wild dogs, a privileged sighting, and leopards staking their territories. Spot our resident elephant, often seen around the island, eating the sweet fruit dropped by the African mangosteen trees.
WHY CHOOSE LITTLE VUMBURA CAMP?
- The habitat mix means that just about every species found in the Okavango can be seen
- Excellent predator sightings are possible all year round
- Epitomising island living, this intimate camp is accessible only by boat
Questions about Little Vumbura
How do you reach Little Vumbura?
The camp is reached only by boat, which is part of its appeal: it sits on a compact island with open views across the floodplains, and island living is very much the point. Once there, the mix of habitats means water and land activities both work well.
Can we take the whole camp for a family or group?
Yes. Little Vumbura has six tented suites, and taking all six for family and friends is a natural fit for a group booking. It remains intimate whichever way you book it, with few boundaries between the camp and the surrounding bush.
What are we likely to see around the island?
Buffalo herds hundreds strong move between the islands, and endangered African wild dogs are a genuine possibility here, as are leopards holding territory nearby. A resident elephant is often seen around the island feeding on fruit dropped by the African mangosteen trees, and predator sightings are good year-round.
