Mombo Camp

Mombo Camp is located in the Mombo Concession on the northern tip of Chief's Island within the Moremi Game Reserve in the Okavango Delta, Botswana.

This area boasts enormous concentrations of plains game and predators - providing arguably the best big game viewing in all of Africa.

Mombo Camp's main living and dining areas are under thatch, but a boma adds traditional flavor to a delicious dinner under the stars.

There is also a plunge pool in which to relax. The best big game viewing experience starts on the veranda at Mombo Camp, with wonderful concentrations of game occurring right in front of the camp.

Built under large, shady trees and overlooking the floodplains which teem with wildlife all year round, Mombo Camp comprises nine spacious tents raised two meters from the ground. Bathrooms are en suite, with both indoor and outdoor showers.

Magnificent vistas are the order of the day, with all the rooms, the sala, long veranda and lounge area taking advantage of the very best that the Okavango Delta has to offer. Guests often find animals wandering past, right under their rooms.

Activities at Mombo Camp include morning and afternoon game drives. Open 4x4s provide an excellent vantage for viewing the high concentrations of plains game and all the predators - including the big cats. Lion sightings are frequent. Guests at Mombo Camp can also expect to see leopard, wild dog, spotted hyaena, large herds of buffalo, elephant, white rhino, southern giraffe, blue wildebeest and Burchell's zebra.

Black and white rhino have been reintroduced to the region with outstanding success (albeit most are further away from Mombo Camp), thanks to the Botswana Rhino Reintroduction Programme.

Mombo Camp has arguably the best big game viewing in Africa. The sheer numbers and variety of wildlife all year round defy description. Mombo Camp is the Africa only seen in documentaries: from elephant to buffalo to tiny steenbok, vast herds of herbivores are trailed by numerous predators on the hunt.

Little Mombo Camp is a smaller and more intimate extension of the larger Mombo Camp, to which it is connected via a raised walkway. It shares the same island as its sister and offers the same high standards of accommodation and big game viewing with just three luxurious, spacious rooms.
