DELTA CAMP - FAST FACTS
"Home of the traditional and original Okavango Delta experience"
LOCATION: Situated on the South Western edge of Chief’s Island in the heart of the Okavango Delta.
THE FOCUS: Is on peace and tranquillity (stalking game on foot provides all the excitement one could wish for) and guests are actively encouraged to visit the local village, home to the guides, and to interact with the people there.
More about the Delta Camp
The Okavango Delta with its crystal-clear channels, lagoons, sweeping floodplains and countless islands, is home to over 450 bird species, a spectacular array of plant species and the full spectrum of African game. The Okavango has earned its reputation as one of the world's premier wilderness areas.
Delta Camp and its sister camp, Oddballs’, are apparently the only lodges in Botswana that still use traditional mokoro – all the others use fibre-glass replicas.
Thus, Delta Camp provides a totally traditional as well as authentic Okavango Delta experience!
Chief’s Island Walking Trail, a fully- serviced trail into the wilds of the Okavango, offering guests a unique opportunity to explore the unspoiled southern portions of Chief’s Islands.
Delta Camp engenders in its staff and guests alike an acute awareness of the ecological sensitivity of this magnificent area.
ACCESS: Serviced by Delta Camp Airstrip – only Delta Air is allowed to land. A 20-minute flight from Maun.
CATEGORY OF SAFARI EXPERIENCE: Predominantly a water camp with walks on Islands. At Delta Camp we still use the traditional mokoro (dug-out canoe).
ACCOMMODATION: We accommodate 14 guests in seven Luxury Chalets, built from reed and wood. The Chalets are raised. Each Chalet has a shower, WC and basin.
The amazing design of the Chalets is such that you enjoy the luxuries of a 'top rate' hotel, but without affecting the environment. You will find you share your chalet with the trees, while taking full advantage of the views of the surrounding bush and floodplains.
