To experience the ultimate Okavango Delta safari, combine traditional safari pleasure and sublime luxury in equal measure. Imagine your own designer lodge filled with great art, good food and indulgent wellness. Park that. Your safari begins in a simple yet luxurious mobile tented camp, and ends with a blow-your-socks off stay at the Delta’s newest and most indulgent camp, Xigera. From start to finish, it’s a well-rounded bucket-list experience.
We’ve handpicked three of Botswana’s most epic safari retreats, starting with a romantic front row seat to all the action at Selinda Explorers. This mobile camp is situated in a remote area smack bang centre of the Selinda Spillway. A classical explorer-style experience awaits with first-class game viewing and simple pleasures like your own private hammock and bucket shower. Next, we take you to Duba Plains for an authentic 1920s-style safari experience, complete with your own private plunge pool and a copper bath with a view. We end with pure luxury, high design, commissioned artworks, delightful foodie experiences, star-studded treehouse sleepouts, and the best place to revive worn souls, Xigera. Here, you’ll spend your days exploring the game-rich floodplains and waterways of the delta, searching for rare sitatunga and photographing reed frogs from a glass-bottomed mokoro.
