The ultimate Delta water experience
Jao Camp is the epitome of luxury located in one of the most fascinating regions of the Okavango Delta.
Providing the ultimate Delta water experience in the heart of the Okavango, luxurious Jao Camp is set in an area where islands fringed with riverine forests meet vast productive floodplains. The camp itself perfectly mirrors the beauty of the Delta and allows an effortless entry into the wonders of this pristine wetland paradise.
Shaded by a canopy of trees, the 5 spacious and beautifully-designed tents and 2 ultra-luxe villas are offer en-suite facilities with indoor and outdoor showers. Expansive views from the private sala at each tent make for a sumptuous setting for afternoon siestas. With five tented rooms, and two villas, Jao Camp caters for different levels of privacy. In addition to the main lounge and dining area, there are two plunge pools and a boma for dining under the stars, complemented by wines from an excellent wine cellar. Jao Camp also has one of the best spas in the delta, where a wide range of massage therapies are offered and also a gym for the more active.
Jao’s position, amongst waterways and lagoons, yet close to dry Kalahari woodland, means you can enjoy both water and land experiences, depending on the time of year. There is no better way of viewing the Delta and its wildlife than by traditional mokoro (dugout canoe). Morning and afternoon game drives Night drives with spotlights allow you to find those nocturnal animals you wouldn’t see during the day. A raised hide located about 20 minutes from camp is a great place to watch the comings and goings of wildlife. The hide can also be used for sleep-outs for a maximum of two people on a queen-size bed with a large mosquito net.

Our Difference
The Far & Wild Community...
We think that the best people to talk about an experience are those directly linked to it. Our website and brochures let the ‘real experts’ show their stuff… local experts, travellers & industry insiders. Look out for the coloured markers all around the site... they mean that you are reading something contributed directly by a person from one of these different parts of the community we are part of.
The best memories aren’t simply places and hotels, they are made up of experiences and people… so we connect with local communities, and strive for sustainable travel to make your holiday special
