Pitched in a hidden crease in the northern reaches of the Okavango Delta, Expeditions Camp is a semi-permanent, expedition-style safari camp designed to take guests back to where safari began - under canvas, around firelight and fully immersed in the wild.
This intimate camp of eight Meru-style tents rests beneath ebony trees beside a seasonal floodplain in the 90,000-hectare Northern Okavango Concession (NG12). Built lightly on the forest floor, without raised decks, the camp honours the tradition of early safari expeditions while offering all the comforts that matter. Each tent is purposefully simple, yet undeniably comfortable, and features a fully plumbed en-suite bathroom, four-poster beds, Persian rugs and rich textiles.
The camp's mess tent captures the essence of safari life. Carefully curated furniture, a small library and a well-stocked drinks cabinet set the scene for unfussy meals, easy conversation and evenings spent around the fire. Expeditions Camp is a place to slow down and experience a safari that is unhurried and wonderfully real.
Eight semi-permanent Meru-style tents are thoughtfully positioned beneath shady ebony trees, resting directly on the levelled forest floor for a closer connection to the bush. The camp comprises three double tents and five twin tents, each comfortably appointed with four-poster beds, antique furnishings, Persian rugs and rich textiles that create a warm, nostalgic feel. Every tent features a fully plumbed en-suite bathroom with flush loo, indoor shower and hot water, as well as plug points for charging devices, ensuring comfort without losing the spirit of expedition travel. A private deck opens onto the surrounding floodplains, offering a peaceful place to pause and watch the Delta shift with the light.
