Jao Camp is a beautifully designed lodge. The views over the flood plains provide some of the most stunning scenery that Botswana has to offer. I knew I was in paradise while relaxing on my private veranda taking in the birdlife and the peace and tranquillity that the Delta has to offer.

Tubu Tree is a small camp built on the western side of Hunda Island, in the Okavango Delta's Jao Concession. Generally a water-inundated area, during the floods this is the largest stretch of dry land in the area, so Tubu Tree usually has the most diverse game viewing experience within the concession, from the water-loving lechwe to blue wildebeest of the plains. The area is a combination of open grasslands, dry forest and shallow floodplains. Therefore game viewing is varied, including giraffe, elephant, lion, warthog, lechwe, hippo, leopard, cheetah, tsessebe, buffalo, serval, aardwolf plus all plains game.

Client Comments

The arrangements were excellent with a high standard of accommodation, interesting locations and many opportunities to participate in activities that we enjoy outdoors. The birds, animals, flowers and trees were so different from ours. We were made so welcome at all locations.
