Here’s a new, fence-free camp in Botswana that promises classic touches, contemporary luxury and chances to see some of Africa’s greatest predators.
The 2026 season will be the first in the history of this new camp, located in the Chitabe Private Concession just to the south of the Moremi Game Reserve, one of northern Botswana’s most wildlife-rich areas.
There are just 3 tents here, so only ever a maximum of 6 guests at any one time. That qualifies this camp as exclusive in our book, and makes it ideal for block booking all three tents.
The look and feel of camp are inspired by the safaris of a century ago, with a fair share of contemporary comforts, of course, including solar powered lighting, hot water and Starlink Wi-Fi.
Inside each of the trio of tents, either a super-kingsize bed or twins awaits, depending on your preference. The ensuite bathroom has two showers, two wash basins but just the one flushing toilet. A fan will keep things cool, plug sockets make charging your devices easy, and there’s Wi-Fi, so you can stay in touch with the outside world during your stay. Speaking of outside, your private veranda will offer an excellent angle on the surrounding landscape, which is likely to be regularly visited by wildlife.
All guests will no doubt be drawn to the communal central area with an open-sided, canvas roof tent providing a place to dine and drink under shelter or out in the open as you prefer. Expect to discover a decent range of drinks in the help-yourself bar, and also expect to feel spoilt as there’s a butler service in camp.
To get a Pel’s owl view of the landscape, you can book a helicopter sightseeing flight with the camp team. It’ll cost extra but is likely to give you unforgettable memories of your visit, not to mention some amazing photos.
Predators of the calibre of lion, cheetah, leopard and wild dog are known to prowl the surrounding reserves. Expert rangers will take you out and off-road in a 4x4 to find them. You’re advised to get on board for a day safari and a night time excursion to increase your chances of seeing the widest range of wildlife – lions tend to hunt after dark.
Walking safaris are also offered in areas less likely to contain predators, and more likely to get you close to giraffe, kudu, and a huge variety of insect, lizard and bird species. If you’ve never seen a grey-headed kingfisher or Pel’s fishing owl in the wild before, here’s your chance.
The waterways around here are either permanent or seasonal, meaning trips out on canoe-like mokoro to see hippo, crocodile and other water-based wildlife depend on the time of year.
