Accommodation
Gomoti Tented Camp — Santawani Concession
Nestled under large Acacia trees in an area rich with diverse wildlife sits Gomoti Tented Camp, located in the center of the private 6,000-hectare Santawani Concession, in the south-east corner of the Okavango. This is glamping at its finest: five spacious, Savannah canvas tents are furnished with teak director's chairs, plush beds and inviting interiors designed to recreate the style of the early explorers. Private, en-suite bathrooms complete these luxury camping accommodations. Enjoy the view from your veranda during the day, or sit beside a crackling campfire in the evening. Fresh, sumptuous meals are served in the thatched dining area.
Linyanti Discoverer Camp — Linyanti Concession
Set in the 125,000-hectare Linyanti Concession, bordering Chobe National Park, Linyanti Discoverer Camp is your base from which to explore this enormous wildlife-rich area. Unrivalled in its remoteness and space, the concession is bisected by an ancient watercourse—the now-flowing Savute Channel. Your innovative wooden-framed and canvas-sided tents are designed to recreate the accommodation style of the early explorers, with richly coloured teak director chairs and minimalist interiors. Bedside tables with reading lamps, canvas and wood wardrobes, bathrobes, comfortable beds and mirrors are provided. Private, en-suite separate toilet and showers form part of the structure. Paraffin hurricane lanterns and a crackling campfire set the ambience in the evening, while fresh, sumptuous meals are usually prepared around a fire by warm and friendly camp staff.
Xigera Camp — Okavango Delta, Botswana
Xigera Camp (pronounced Keejera) lies on the aptly named Paradise Island, surrounded by deep channels and lush vegetation. There are ten raised luxury tents with en-suite facilities, an outdoor shower – and superb views of the classic Okavango Delta floodplains that surround the camp. Meals and evening drinks are enjoyed in the lounge, bar and dining area overlooking a permanently flowing channel or under the stars in a traditional African boma. For those hot days there is a small plunge pool in which to cool off.
