Stanley’s Camp is located in a private concession on the southern tip of Chief's Island in the Moremi Game Reserve in Botswana - a region of startling contrasts with its mix of wetlands, forest, and dry savannah.
Set amidst shady ebony and sausage trees overlooking the perennial Boro River, Stanley’s offers spectacular game viewing in an area rich in birdlife, wildlife and scenic beauty. Stanley’s Camp prides itself on its impeccable service, luxurious accommodation, decadent cuisine, making for an unforgettable African safari.
Stanley’s Camp offers ten individually designed canvas safari Tents, raised on wooden decking. startling, the tents exude understated elegance. The Tents feature an en-suite bathroom with a shower, fan, minibar, tea & coffee making facilities, lounge area, hairdryer, in-room safe, bathrobes, complimentary Wi-Fi, and a viewing deck.
The camp facilities include an expansive lounge, dining area, swimming pool, gym, bar, and laundry service.
Expert guides accompany guests on early morning and late afternoon game drives, and guided walking safaris afford the opportunity to track and follow Okavango wildlife and learn about the plants, birds, and habitats of this pristine wilderness. Tranquil mokoro trips provide a soothing way of viewing the multitude of water birds and pods of grunting hippos up close and afford a view of the plains wildlife from the water. The Living with Elephants activity is a must-do. This leisurely walk with two semi-habituated elephants is an extraordinarily enriching experience, giving guests a chance for personal interaction with these gentle giants.
Large numbers of plains game and predators are found throughout the year. After the recent introduction of rhino to this concession, the area is home to the Big Five. Predators abound and include several lion prides, leopards, cheetah, hyena, and the rare and endangered Wild dog. Large herds of elephant and buffalo, frequent the area. Blue wildebeest, steenbok, giraffe, greater kudu, impala, Burchell's zebra, and tsessebe abound, and the region’s flood levels attract the much-sought-after water-dwelling antelope species such as sitatunga and red lechwe. There are also unexpected little gems – such as the frogs and neon-blue water lilies.
The area is home to over 400 species of birds, including the African fish eagle, Bateleur, Crested and Wattled cranes, Black-tailed godwit, Sacred ibis, Green pigeon and the rare and elusive Pel’s fishing owl.
Sanctuary Stanley's Camp is ideal for solo explorers, couples, and families looking for a luxury safari getaway.

Pascal is a travel angel! Highly recommend him.
We started planning for our safari trip contacting a bunch of different travel advisors but Pascal's service truly stood out to us as the best in the industry. He took care of planning everything from start to finish for our very last minute honeymoon trip (literally a month out and during the busiest safari season). He is extremely meticulous and very responsive to our 100 questions. He shared first hand experiences at each of the different lodges, personal pictures and gave us solid recommendations within our budget. He hopped on a call with us initially to explain all the differences to us first time safari goers, and continued to be very flexible and patient with us as we couldn't decide! We are very excited for our trip and cannot thank Pascal enough for being our first interaction on our upcoming trip.

I highly recommend Shann Shaw
Shann Shaw has been great to work with and she has tried her best to try to meet our budget expectations. She is very kind, responsive and detailed in her explanations and really, really helpful. When I told her I decided to book through expedia or booking, she still explained how everything worked and how these websites sometimes don't have all the details you need, yet, she work hard in getting us our flights and the hotel that we really wanted for this experience. I couldn't be happier with her service and dedication and highly recommend her services!

The entire process from when we first reached out to her to inquire about a trip to when we confirmed the quote and booking was under a week.
