This exclusive safari camp comprises top-notch accommodation on iconic Chief’s Island – the largest in Botswana’s Okavango Delta. Twelve secluded bush pavilions with thatched roofs are located in the Moremi Game Reserve with views of the Piajio floodplain and guests are all but guaranteed predator sightings as this area is generally thick with game. During the flood season guests are able to explore the miraculous waterways of the Delta by mokoro (dug-out canoe) in search of a diverse array of wildlife, including the elusive white rhino seen nowhere else in Botswana.
Twice daily games take place in 4x4s that seat six, meaning each guest has a coveted ‘outside seat’. After returning, be welcomed back to Chief’s Camp with refreshing hot towels and cool drinks. Birders should be on the lookout for jewel-like malachite kingfishers, while leopard frogs cling to the reeds of the Delta. Chief’s Camp is well laid out, with a swimming pool, open-plan bar, safari shop for last-minute essentials, and tranquil views over Piajio. Sisal, leather, wicker, and wood combine to create tasteful and comfortable interiors. The wellness studio is on tap for massages, facials, scrubs, and nail treatments during the sunny afternoons between a delicious lunch and your late afternoon game drive.

A kitchen, freestanding tub, comfy king-size bed, and spacious indoor dining area make your stay homely. Adding to the regal air of the suite, a private vehicle, dedicated guide, personal chef, waiter, and housekeeper are included when staying in the room.
Facilities
The camp’s raised outdoor relaxation areas provide plenty of comfortable seating from which to enjoy the Delta terrain and the wildlife that inhabits the sparkling water surrounding Chief’s Island. A swimming pool surrounded by loungers and umbrellas is built into the deck – a great place to cool off.
An on-site spa facility offers a full range of packages with indoor and outdoor beds for guests to take in the wildlife and Delta scenery while they enjoy their treatment.
Dining
Meals are taken with your ranger and fellow guests who share your 4X4 unless you request privacy; the communal approach allows a convivial exchange of information about the day’s sightings and the animal habits within the area.
For romantics, a private dinner in the bush under the sequinned night sky can be arranged.
Afternoon tea and pre-dinner snacks have been replaced with a scrumptious all-day snack menu, offering guests a unique range of delicious delights.
