Xigera Camp, Botswana

Contact a specialist about Xigera Camp, Botswana

Nestled in a magnificent riverine forest, Xigera epitomises the Okavango Delta: a tranquil true Delta experience in the domain of the elusive sitatunga antelope and sought-after Pel's Fishing-Owl. Xigera Camp (pronounced Keejera) dwells on an island in the heart of the Delta in Moremi Game Reserve. Xigera is set in what is truly a wetland paradise, surrounded as it is by deep channels and lush riverine vegetation. Lion and leopard are often seen from the camp crossing the bridge. Lechwe, sitatunga, buffalo, and hippo are seen often from mokoro. Plains game is good and bushbuck are a feature. There is an incredible diversity and abundance of birds.
