Chitabe Camp

The eight spacious and individually-decorated tents are furnished with comfortable twin or double beds surrounded by mosquito nets, bedside tables and lamps, a writing desk, a luggage rack, and a soft chair and footstool, and each tent features stunning photographs of the Okavango Delta’s wildlife taken by camp owner Dave Hamman. All tents are en-suite with flush toilets, double sinks, and indoor and outdoor showers. Each tent has its own private deck where you can sit and relax whilst listening to the birds in the surrounding trees and watching the wildlife, including elephants and giraffes, wander by the camp.

Raised wooden walkways connect the tents to the camp’s main thatched building, which has a lovely lounge and bar with comfortable sofas, and an open-sided dining area where you can take in the spectacular views of the floodplains whilst enjoying a hearty breakfast, buffet lunch or delicious three-course dinner. Below the dining room, there’s a plunge pool which is surrounded by a deck with comfortable sun loungers making it an ideal place to relax in-between safari activities, and along a walkway from the main building, there’s a small library, nestled in the branches of a large tree, which is a perfect spot to sit and read or simply gaze out at the wonderful views. There’s also a small gift shop selling traditional crafts and baskets made by the staff. 

Facilities include a plunge pool surrounded by sun loungers, a thatched main building with a lounge, a bar and dining areas, a central firepit, a small library, a gift shop, and laundry services.

Guests can enjoy an early breakfast before heading out on game drives, and later in the morning, a substantial brunch is served. Afternoon tea is offered before the afternoon activity, and a delicious dinner is served in the evenings.
