Delta Camp Okavango

Intoduction - good ( Desert and Delta )

There are some really innovative touches here, including the most bizarre treehouse we have ever seen, but overall we found Delta Camp to be too rough around the edges for us to be able to recommend at these premium prices

 

Delta Camp is located in the busy and less than perfect Gunn's Concession in the southeast of the Okavango Delta.

The camp offers wet safari only, which is best during the flood months July to October.

In reality this place is actually more wierd than neighbouring Oddballs. There are some really innovative touches, including the most bizarre treehouse we have ever seen.

In our opinion Delta Camp is way too strange and simple to command these prices and we are yet to find an occasion that warrants recommending it to our guests

 


This is an intimate, yet informal safari camp nestled on a small island close to the south-western edge of Chief's Island, in the heart of the pristine and unique Okavango Delta. Guests are accommodated in spacious 'lethaka' (reed) chalets, with en-suite facilities. Deigned to take advantage of the many indigenous trees of their island forest, the chalets fit unobtrusively, blending into the surrounding bush whilst enjoying views over the flood-plains.

Hammocks complete the picture of simple luxury in the wilderness, and your chalet directly overlooks the waters of the Boro River, one of the primary channels of the Delta

 


Guests get to know the area both by foot and mokoro - the traditional dug-out canoe. These excursions are conducted in the renowned and beautiful Moremi Game Reserve, with your own professional guide, a local man, and completely at one with his environment.

You can enjoy meals in the elegant Dining Room overlooking the sweep of the Delta, or take a beautifully prepared picnic onto one of the many nearby islands for a secluded and intimate experience. Either way, the excellent cuisine ensures that guests are well prepared for their walks. Tea and coffee are available at all times, and the open bar is on hand to refresh!

This unusual Camp engenders, in its staff and guests alike, an acute awareness of the ecological sensitivity of this incredible area. Bio-degradable products are used, and careful separation and treatment of refuse ensures that nothing that is not fully bio-degradable stays on the island.

 

The accent at the Lodge is on peace and tranquillity (stalking game on foot provides all the excitement one could wish for) and guests are actively encouraged to visit a local village, home to the Lodge guides, and to interact, should they wish to, with the people there
