Chitabe Camp is a luxurious 8-roomed tented camp built on one of the most beautiful islands in the Okavango Delta, in a private area which is bordered on three sides by the Moremi Game Reserve. The camp is located in a diverse area incorporating mopang woodlands, acacia, floodplains and the perennial delta, all of which provide a variety of wildlife.
Accommodation at Chitabe Camp consists of 8 spacious East African style tents that are built on elevated wooden decks, beneath the lush tree canopy. Each tented room has en-suite facilities with flush toilets, a shower and basin with hot and cold running water. The room interiors are of the same standard as its sister camp, . The thatched dining area, lounge and pub are also raised on decks overlooking the surrounding flood plains, and a pool allows guests to cool off from the heat of the day.
Activities consist of day and night game drives in open 4x4 vehicles accompanied by an experienced guide, as well as nature walks.
The Chitabe Concession is 28,000 hectares of pristine Okavango wilderness. It borders the well known Moremi Game Reserve and is nestled between two main river systems, the Gomoti to east and the Santantadibe to the west. What makes Chitabe unique to some of the other areas in the Okavango Delta is that it contains such a variety of habitats within close proximity. A finger of perennial swamps extends into the Chitabe reserve, which is inundated by water throughout the year. The area is also dominated by seasonally flooded areas which transform 56% of the concession from dry floodplains into a lush oasis, when the annual flood waters meander through. This variety of habitat, which ranges from the classic Okavango scenery with Illala Palms dotting the landscape, to open savannahs and acacia woodlands, gives rise to a surprising diversity of species, which allows
Chitabe offer guests a wide variety of game viewing and birding experiences and is well known for its predator concentrations of cheetah, lion, leopard and wild dog and because we can offer night-drives, seeing the elusive nocturnal animals such as aardvark and pangolin is a treat.
Chitabe Camp can offer guests not only a wonderful game viewing experience in well-equipped game drive vehicles, but we encourage walking as well. Our guides are all trained and accredited to take walks and our guests can put their feet on the ground and get a real feel for Africa. Chitabe also has two elevated hides located in the reserve, where guests can experience a 'sleep-out' under the stars in full comfort and safety.
