The intimate, tented retreat is located amid the shimmering grasslands of the Khwai Private Reserve, one of the best-managed concessions in the greater Okavango Delta. Up here, there’s something to see around every corner and a different activity to enjoy every day, from classic game drives to mokoro trips and boat safaris. And the best bit of all is that this iconic safari experience is all yours for an extremely affordable price.
This unfussy camp has 8 rooms all simply furnished with a touch of quirkiness that you would come to expect from a Natural Selection lodge. For many years the lodge has been a site for hosting photographic trips, a result of the abounding wildlife populating the grasslands and wetlands including road, sable, crocodile, hippo and elephant. This is the perfect place for enjoying classic safari components at affordable rates.

Mokolwane | Okavango Delta
Situated on the Matsebi River, Mokolwane camp is made up of tree houses 2 metres off the ground. A real haven for elephants that love the palm trees of this area. This camp is situated in the open flood plains that receive floodwater 3 weeks earlier than the southern areas of the concession. The vegetation consists of smaller palm islands and wide-open spaces.
Mokolwane is made up of 7 charming canvas tents, with the accommodation boasting superb views, each with a private bathroom. The Matsebi River is your main feeder for Lake Ngami, which is historically famous to the region.
One of the remotest camps in the Okavango Delta. For certain parts of the year the camp is only accessible on foot. This really is one of the earth’s last wildernesses. A place to take in all the noise of nature from your raised tree cabin. A simple but beautiful camp.
