Pronounced as Camp Ka-ka-na-ka, this authentic safari camp is positioned on the banks of the Khwai River in the prime game viewing reserve of Moremi. With year-round land and water activities, Camp Xakanaxa offers a well-rounded classic safari experience in the heart of the Okavango Delta.
Camp Xakanaxa boasts twelve spacious Meru-style Luxury Safari Tents that are positioned on the edge of the lagoon and each feature twin beds that can be converted into a double, an en-suite bathroom with a shower and luxury bathroom amenities, overhead fan, in-room safe, tea and coffee making facilities, flashlight, umbrella, air horn, hairdryer, and a private viewing deck complete with comfortable loungers.
The camp facilities include a reception area, various indoor and outdoor dining areas, a campfire area, swimming pool, bar, curio shop, and an expansive viewing deck that overlooks the lagoons and islands.
The camp which is surrounded by riverine forests, savannah, seasonal floodplains and meandering channels is the perfect safari destination. Activities include morning and afternoon game drives in the Moremi Game Reserve that are led by professional guides, motorized boat safaris, and bird watching.
The Moremi Game Reserve is home to an abundance of wildlife including the famous Big Five and the rare and endangered wild dog. Animals frequently seen on safari include elephant, buffalo, hyena, giraffe, hippo, wildebeest, kudu, lechwe, lion and leopard. Birding is spectacular, especially in the spring and summer months when the migrants are breeding. With over 400 bird species recorded in the delta, the reserve is a bird watchers paradise.
Camp Xakanaxa is ideal for solo explorers, couples and families looking for an authentic tented safari experience.

A superb experience
Dear Jayson, You are a star. The very professional pieces of advice and the optimal design of the schedule that turned our holidays into an extraordinary experience. Thank you so much! Leopard Hills are indeed the boutique luxury camp that you recommended. People there are incredible friendly and knowledgable. The guide was excellent. And the cook, she was a friendly star too. The flight connections went well, despite that rather long drive, and the very early morning start. Wake up calls at 4 AM should be forbidden :) Mauritius was great, Club Med The Plantation Albion was the perfect choice. (The other Club Med @ Cannonier we visited only and were glad we didn’t chose that one…) Thank you again for the superb organisation.

First organized trip to Africa.
Booking an entire trip is a new experience for us. Our first contact with Shamiel was pleasant and wanted to know what we wanted out of the entire experience. As the planning moved forward Shamiel brought in Jayson to assist. As they listened to what we wanted and our concerns they brought together a package for us. Both we always accessible and extremely interested to provide us with a great experience.

Experienced a double booking
Before payment, we experienced an issue of double booking, where suddenly our chosen lodging is only available for 2 out of 4 days. I hope Safari.com can improve their system to avoid this in the future. While it will be an inconvenience on our part to have to move lodging half way, we also understand the high demand of the lodging as we make the booking just 5 months before departure. I really appreciate Nelia's quick action informing us and providing an alternative plan which works for us. Overall it was quite a smooth booking process.

Safari.com was helpful start to finish
Safari.com was helpful start to finish. The sign up process was clear, the support was great as we tailored our experience. Directions were perfect to get there. Everything in the safari was as we thought it would be and even better. It literally was the trip of a lifetime and exceeded our expectations.

Heleen 's service was superb: prompt, friendly and efficient. She altered my reservation promptly and efficiently. She warned me that SAN Parks might not be able to accommodate my wishes, but all is well.
