If you're looking for a safari that feels both intimate and immersive, Tawana Camp is a rare find.
Location: Tucked into a quiet bend of the Gomoti River, deep within Botswana’s iconic Moremi Game Reserve, Tawana is perfectly placed for outstanding big game encounters. The surrounding floodplains and riverine forests draw in elephants, wild dogs, and lions year-round, and because the camp is unfenced, you’ll often find wildlife wandering right past your suite.
Rooms: Each of Tawana’s eight expansive suites has been thoughtfully designed to blend natural textures with elegant finishes. Timber, thatch, copper, and canvas come together in a way that feels quietly indulgent, while blending effortlessly into the surrounding wilderness. You’ll love how spacious they feel, with high ceilings and huge glass doors that open onto the wild.
Amenities: At the main lodge, you’ll find a welcoming open-air lounge, a library nook, a tranquil firepit area, and a generous pool deck with sweeping Delta views. There’s also a photographic studio where you can edit or print your favourite shots, and a curated wine selection to enjoy with sundowners. Everything here is set up to help you unwind and make the most of your time in the bush.
Activities: Tawana is all about exceptional, flexible game viewing. You’ll head out on expertly guided game drives with no fixed schedule. Night drives offer a chance to see the Delta’s more elusive creatures, while walks give you a different, more tactile sense of the landscape. And because it’s in a private concession, you’ll often have sightings all to yourself.
Sustainability: The camp was built with a light touch and a long-term vision: in partnership with Chief Tawana Moremi and the Batawana people, long-time guardians of this remarkable landscape, it plays an active role in protecting the Moremi Game Reserve. All power is solar-generated, water is sustainably sourced and treated, and most of the camp’s team are from nearby communities.
