Machaba Camp is a traditional style camp nestling in the game-rich Khwai area. The Khwai Concession is a 35 000 hectare reserve located in the northeastern section of the world-famous Okavango Delta and it shares its westerly border with the Moremi Game Reserve.

Nestled in a riverine tree line, the camp offers privacy, spectacular river views and excellent food ­– enveloped in a layer of warm hospitality. Should you wander away from the comfort of camp you can spot a wealth of land and water-based wildlife.

Machaba is built in the classic 1950s style, with luxury safari tents, en suite bathrooms, living areas and outdoor showers. All the tents sit on the ground, and the paths to them meander between large riverine trees, which gives the camp an old-fashioned, unhurried feel.
