Accommodation
Accommodation during the safari is mainly Kujwana Camp, an exclusive tented camp beautifully located on the Xudum River. Here, authentic bush atmosphere is combined with high comfort – guests stay in spacious tents with ensuite bathrooms and can enjoy a pool, wooden decks, and Wi-Fi. The views over the floodplain often reveal a variety of passing wildlife, ensuring you are always surrounded by nature. On request, and at an additional cost, you may also book one of the two spacious Riverside Suites, both offering spectacular views over the river. During the safari, a stay at the so-called fly camp is also possible (see further below), providing a more secluded wilderness experience.
Kujwana Camp (standard accommodation)
With outstanding comfort and private bathrooms, the standard tents, built on fixed canvas structures, offer everything you need to enjoy an authentic safari experience. The tents are nestled within the camp’s groves, where you are constantly surrounded by the wonderful songs of birdlife. Expect visits from vervet monkeys and perhaps even a morning wake-up by an elephant quietly feeding on marula fruit along the riverbank. With both double and twin tents, we can accommodate groups of all sizes.
Riverside Suites
The Riverside Suites are beautifully situated on the Xudum River – offering views of the river during the winter months, and in summer overlooking a waterhole where elephants often gather to cool down. From the veranda, you can watch elephants bathing and colorful kingfishers resting on the branches of ancient fig trees. Elegantly decorated and full of charm, these suites provide the perfect combination of luxury and wilderness. Here, you can fall asleep to the sound of hippos grazing below the veranda and wake up to a sunrise filling the room with warm light. The suites are especially appreciated by couples and honeymooners seeking a romantic and secluded experience with that little something extra.
Fly Camp
The term ‘fly camp’ refers to a temporary camp that can easily be moved – a classic safari tradition. On safaris lasting five nights or longer, two nights at the fly camp are included. You’ll find luxurious and spacious tents with comfortable beds, as well as hot showers in your ensuite bathroom. The experience begins with a full-day ride from Kujwana Camp, deep into the more remote wilderness of the Delta. After two nights of exploration and overnight stays in this area, you return to Kujwana Camp enriched by an authentic and unforgettable bush experience. Accommodation at the fly camp can also be opted out of entirely, if preferred.
Platforms
On request, there is the chance to spend at least one night on raised sleep-out platforms, where you fall asleep under the stars. The platforms are simple yet comfortable – equipped with a mattress, mosquito net, wash-stand, bush toilet, and bucket shower – and can be moved to follow the movements of the wildlife. It creates an adventurous and unforgettable night’s experience in the heart of the Okavango wilderness.
