Chobe National Park
This property is located within the Chobe National Park, providing the prime bush location for exploring the Chobe Riverfront. The location inside the park gives guests the advantage of a head start on vehicle traffic entering the Riverfront from Kasane for activities, and therefore a more exclusive Chobe safari.

Following a morning activity (time permitting) and breakfast guests will be transferred to Kasane airport for their onward air transfer to Camp Okavango.  You’ll spend the next two days enjoying shared activities offered by the camp.

Camp Okavango is situated on the remote Nxaragha Island in the heart of the permanent Okavango Delta, assuring a year-round water wilderness experience. Camp Okavango is a romantic and peaceful haven, offering an idyllic getaway.

The bathroom includes a double vanity, double shower and separate toilet.

All rooms are connected to the main lodge area by means of elevated walkways through the trees and vegetation of Nxaragha Island.

All game-viewing activities are conducted by experienced professional guides and include exploring the Okavango Delta by mokoro (traditional dugout canoe) and motorboat. Guided nature walks on the various islands afford an opportunity to track some of the larger species that inhabit this water wilderness. Bird watching opportunities are outstanding, and fishing for bream and tiger fish is also offered.

Airstrip Transfer Time: 5 minute walk; however please note that during the wet season the airstrip can get flooded in which case alternative arrangements will be made.

Camp Moremi is situated on the picturesque Xakanaxa Lagoon in the eastern extremity of the Okavango Delta, within the Moremi Game Reserve. The area is a wildlife haven with incredible game viewing opportunities year round.

Twelve spacious thatched safari tents rest on slightly raised wooden platforms and reflect a modern yet warm, natural feel. All are en suite with shower, basin and toilet. One room is a family unit comprised of two en suite tents linked by an interleading door. Subtle touches in each room include a fan, tea/ coffee making facility, small hairdryer and eco-friendly bathroom amenities.

These are linked by boardwalk to the fireplace, situated in the front of the camp. An outdoor boma, swimming pool and curio shop complete the expansive central camp spaces.

Activities offered are game drives in open safari vehicles exploring the diverse range of habitats within the reserve – from open floodplains to belts of mopane woodland.
