Gunns Camp

Overlooking the legendary Chief’s Island and bordering the Moremi Game Reserve, Gunn’s Camp is one of the last few remaining luxury, vintage safari camps. Gunn's Camp is the ideal choice when looking to explore Botswana, with Chobe National Park and Moremi Game Reserve within reasonable reach. Your African safari experience starts with a twenty minute light aircraft transfer from Maun flying deep into the Delta before landing at Ntswi Island airstrip, where you are welcomed by the staff of Gunns Camp. 

Set under leafy palms and African Ebony trees, the camp blends in seemingly with the bushveld surroundings.  

The accommodation offered at Gunn's Camp consists of six opulent Meru-style Tents that have been built on raised platforms, and each feature an en-suite bathroom with freestanding bathtub and outside shower, lounge area, and private veranda overlooking the plains. 

The camp facilities include an elevated bar, lounge and dining room, campfire boma and swimming pool.

The Okavango Delta teems with wildlife, including elephant, Cape buffalo, lion, leopard, cheetah, giraffe, wild dog, impala, various other antelope species, hippo, and crocodile to name but a few. The delta is a birders paradise with over 500 species recorded.

Delta activities include motor boat cruises, mokoro excursions, and guided game walks. The walks take place on Chief’s Island, in the Moremi Game Reserve, separated from Ntswi Island by the Boro River channel. Each guide takes two guests by mokoro to different areas of the reserve, where the focus is not solely on the larger species but learning about the habits of the smaller animals, sighting birds and learning their calls, as well as identifying plantlife and their medicinal uses. Guides converse in English and offer a rare insight into the unique phenomenon of the Delta, with guests appreciating how important the “little things” are to this diverse ecosystem.

Gunns Camp is ideal for solo explorers, couples and families looking for a rewarding safari experience.
