Chitabe Camp plays host to a breathtaking mosaic of open floodplains, waterways, marshlands, dry acacia and mopane woodland, riverine forest and open grasslands. This vegetation provides the perfect home for a diverse wildlife and has become a renowned area for predator sightings.
The 69 000 acre private Chitabe Concession is situated in the south-east of the Okavango Delta and is characterized by its grassy floodplains which separate the channel from acacia and mopane woodland. The western half of the concession has as its boundary the Santantadibe River and here a variety of typical Okavango habitats ensure a year-round variety of game viewing and birding experiences.
The camp boasts eight Meru-style Tents which are built on elevated wooden decks amongst the trees. Each tent has twin beds draped with mosquito netting, an en-suite bathroom with double vanities, both indoor and outdoor showers, pedestal fan, writing desk, sitting area, and deck with loungers. One of the tents has a king-size bed.
The camp facilities include a dining area, bar, lounge area, swimming pool and a raised deck that offers spectacular views across the floodplain.
Game drives reveal the rich wildlife of the area from predators to prey. Day and night game drives are conducted in open 4x4 Land Rovers and led by professional guides.
Guided walking safaris afford you the opportunity of seeing animals on foot as well as the smaller wondrous creatures of the African bush. Walking safaris are a great way of also seeing the diverse number of bird species living on the concession. This activity is dependent on the availability of guides.
It is this diversity and a mix of Okavango and Kalahari habitats that makes Chitabe unique and which allows good concentrations of all the larger predators – lion, leopard, spotted hyena, cheetah and wild dog – as well as herbivores like giraffe, buffalo, lechwe, tsessebe, impala and elephant.
Chitabe Camp is ideal for solo explorers, couples and families looking for a luxurious tented safari experience.

Shann could not have been more helpful. I enquired through WhatsApp from the UK and she responded quickly and efficiently to my questions. It was great to have my enquiry dealt with in such an efficient manner.

Anja is awesome!
Anja is awesome!! She went above and beyond for me as I had several changes until I locked in my bucket list itinerary and then my friend cancelled. She wasn't mad and just went about cancelling her portion which saved me money in the long run. Anja is a true professional regardless and I have been dealing with her since Sept 2023. Cannot wait until my trip in Sept 2024.

Shann was beyond amazing
Shann was beyond amazing. Listened to our needs, communicated super-efficiently and gave really honest excellent advice. She was so patient, kind and professional. The time difference across the globe made no difference. I am so excited for the itinerary she has put together. I usually cobble my own itinerary together for our holidays and it’s so time consuming and hard work. This was a piece of cake! Thank you Shann.

Great planning and service
Great planning and service, and everything worked like clockwork. We booked an Inyari Lodge safari with air with Safari.com. it wasn't clear if there will be 2 or three of us, so with Candis' help we booked a family chalet for 2 and added the third later when it was confirmed he can come. Candis put us on flights that maximized our game drive time (unlike some of the other guests) so we got all 6 drives in 3 nights. The lodge was great. Especially the game drives. We saw more than we hoped for. Additionally, Safari.com's insurance was very competitive. Highly recommended.
