NXABEGA OKAVANGO TENTED CAMP – COSY, EXCLUSIVE LUXURY TUCKED AWAY IN THE OASIS OF THE DELTA

&Beyond Nxabega Okavango Tented Camp is located in a riverine forest on the channels and lagoons within a private concession of 7 000 hectares (17 300 acres) in the Okavango Delta, southeast of the Moremi Wildlife Reserve. Massive canopies of African ebony trees offer seclusion within this luxuriously remote location. Overlooking expansive lagoons and channels, as well as reed floodplains, you can’t help but feel that you’ve found a small piece of heaven, an oasis of your very own.

&Beyond Nxabega Okavango Tented Camp consists of 9 luxurious ensuite safari tents with standing fans. Raised on wooded platforms, the safari tents are invitingly spacious warm tones and accents, ideally placed on either side of the camp’s thatched guest areas. Indulge in the luxurious comforts of the refreshingly cool swimming pool, broad viewing decks overlooking reeded floodplains, ensuite showers, burnished teak floorboards, private wooden decks, sweeping guest areas, leather fittings, comfortable reed chairs and a gleaming dining room area.

NXABEGA WATERS AT SUNSET

NXABEGA WATERS AT SUNSET

“The sun setting, reflecting our shape in shadows on the tall reeds as we passed, then 'sundowners' while floating amid lillies now closed from the faded light. Sitting and sipping in silence, the only sounds the noises of the African bush. Moving as the pale blue sky fades to violet and pink, then to orange, indigo and, finally, the African starlit sky.”
Patrick Cantwell

Game drives are offered twice daily during the morning and late afternoon / evenings within the comfort of open air safari vehicles and in the company of an enthusiastic armed guide and tracker team. Explore the floodplains, seasonal grasslands, woodlands, shrub lands and savanna areas of this magically beautiful wilderness area tracking the Big Five and many other rare and remarkable species.

A truly special way to experience a close encounter with Africa’s wilderness is to discover it on foot with an interpretive bush walk. In the company of an armed and passionate guide, a leisurely walk of this kind allows you an intimate adventure and the opportunity to learn about the finer details of this remarkable place.

Take advantage of those invitingly peaceful waterways with an incredible mokoro ride! Fringed by dense reeds, water lilies and papyrus, you and your experienced and highly knowledgeable guide will explore the wilderness of the Delta, discovering a rich diversity of plant and wildlife species as well as fascinating bird life.

DELTA DREAMS

“Magic… pure magic. That is the only way to describe the experience. We could have never imagined the pure, life–affirming joy we experienced during our stay.”

Immersed in some of the world’s most beautiful landscapes, surrounded by Africa’s most majestic of creatures, and hosted and befriended by some of the warmest people we have ever encountered ’ no other travels we have ever done can compare to our &Beyond experience.

– David Cobb

A gentle tap on the door of your luxurious safari tent as the morning hues of the day rise over the horizon will awaken you to a brand new and exciting day. Sip a steaming hot cup of fragrant tea or coffee and enjoy a few biscuits or rusks as you daydream of the adventure of the day that lies before you. An open safari vehicle awaits your arrival for the morning game drive of a lifetime!

Upon your return to &Beyond Nxabega Okavango Tented Camp, fresh fruit and cheese platters will invite you back as the aromas of a freshly prepared hot breakfast selection being cooked will tempt your senses. Take a leisurely walk around the camp accompanied by your guide who will expand your knowledge of the wild in a brand new and exciting way or simply enjoy the exclusive tranquillity of the camp facilities and surrounds. Lunch will then be served in the shady guest areas tucked away within the riverine forest.

Treat yourself to a refreshing dip in the camp’s pool or a delightful afternoon siesta before a late afternoon tea is served. Enjoy an afternoon adventure with a boat ride along the crystal clear channels of the Delta on a mokoro or in a motorised boat, discovering the treasures of the Okavango at eye level.

IT'S A BIRD! NO WAIT, IT'S A BAT! - 12 August 2012
While on the boat cruise through the papyrus channels that Nxabega is well known for, we noticed what seemed to be a bird hawking insects from the water lilies. As we approached it became evident that it was not a bird but a bat! I managed to snap...
