Wilderness Linyanti Tented Camp | Linyanti Concession

1 May 2020 - 4 May 2020

Wilderness Linyanti Tented Camp is ideal for families and small groups looking to explore this wildlife-rich concession. Unrivalled in its remoteness and sense of space, the camp overlooks the iconic Linyanti Marsh.

Eight large, airy tents recreate an explorer-type style, while the two main areas are on a slightly raised deck. Game drives and full-day excursions with lunch at remote picnic spots enable fuller exploration of the varying habitats, including the river, floodplains, open dry-land savannah and woodland.

Booking sole use of the camp is no longer a prerequisite, however, sole use remains possible to book, subject to availability.

INSIDER'S TIP: Look out for large herds of elephants that congregate along the waterways of the Linyanti River and floodplain in front of camp.

Wilderness Pelo | Okavango Delta

4 May 2020 - 6 May 2020

Tall, graceful palm trees mark the location of Wilderness Pelo, while the island’s distinctive shape is instantly recognisable from the air. ‘Pelo’ is the local word for heart, and guests instantly fall in love with this tiny, tranquil island hideaway.

One of the smaller camps in Botswana, Wilderness Pelo has five tents with private verandas and magnificent vistas of the surrounding Okavango. The emphasis at Wilderness Pelo is on mokoro excursions – a smooth, silent way to connect both with the finer details of the Okavango Delta and the rich heritage of the people of this region.

INSIDER'S TIP: Watch the comings and goings of wildlife from the comfort of the camp and by mokoro – hippos, lechwe and sitatunga among many other water-loving creatures.
