Vumbura Plains comprises of two satellite safari camps in the world-renowned Okavango Delta, Botswana. Surrounded by land and water all year round, Vumbura Plains offers guests the opportunity of experiencing the best of both worlds with a selection of land and water-based activities on offer.
This diverse region of the Okavango Delta has proven to be a prime game viewing area with its wide range of herbivore and predator species residing in the reserve. It's believed that this region of the Okavango Delta has the best antelope diversity with frequent sightings of sable.
Vumbura Plains South Camp boasts one double bedded tent and six twin bedded tents that can be converted into double rooms. Each tent is elevated off the ground and features a spacious bedroom, en-suite bathroom with indoor and outdoor showers, a sunken lounge area with views of the floodplains from three sides, a private plunge pool and a sala area that overlooks the African bushveld.
Vumburu Plains North Camp boasts one double bedded tent, two family tents, and four twin-bedded tents that can be converted into double rooms. Each tent is elevated off the ground and features a spacious bedroom, en-suite bathroom with indoor and outdoor showers, a sunken lounge area with views of the floodplains from three sides, a private plunge pool and a sala area that overlooks the African bushveld.
The family tents can accommodate up to 4 guests and feature two bedrooms, separate en-suite bathrooms with the main bedroom boasting large showers, a sunken lounge leading from the main bedroom, and all the other features of the standard tents.
Each camp features a large lounge, dining and bar area, and an expansive viewing deck complete with comfortable couches and a fire pit.
Activities offered at the camp include morning and afternoon game drives that are conducted in open 4x4 safari vehicles, night game drives, mokoro (dugout canoe) excursions, boating safaris, guided nature walks, catch-and-release fishing, bird watching, and hot air balloon safaris (April to mid-October).
With the arrival of the annual floods, the plains surrounding Vumbura become flooded and attract an abundance of wildlife, offering incredible sightings of elephant, giraffe, buffalo, wildebeest and a number of antelope species. The flooded grasslands form a number of waterways which are inhabited by a number of hippo and crocodiles. Other predator sightings include lion, leopard, cheetah, wildcats, and the rare African wild dog.
Vumbura Plains Camp is ideal for solo explorers, couples and families looking for authentic tented accommodation and a rewarding safari experience.

Fantastic travel agent for African safari family trip!
Wow! Shann was and is fantastic! She figured out a way to make our entire trip work. We are going on a 2 week trip to South Africa and Botswana. She really helped tie it all together as a wonderful, cohesive trip. She is super nice and super smart and very knowledgeable. She is also flexible and thoughtful, etc., etc. When the chips were down (and we literally were considering pulling the plug on the whole trip), she found a way to make the entire itinerary work and got us excited about our wonderful adventure! Highly recommend!
