Botswana Safaris: TUBU TREE CAMP

Okavango ~ Vintage 5 Camp

Tubu Tree is a small camp built on the western side of Hunda Island in the Jao Reserve. The camp is surrounded by diverse habitats ranging from dry Kalahari sandveld to mopane forest and riverine forest on the edge of permanent waterways, ensuring diverse and spectacular game viewing.

The camp is built in a traditional style with tents on raised wooden platforms, allowing great views over the floodplains. Each of the five tents has a private front deck, en-suite bathroom facilities and private outdoor showers.

The main dining and lounge areas and pool are also on raised platforms and an outdoor pub area lies under the canopy of a large marula tree. Activities include day and night game drives in open 4x4 vehicles, as well as guided walks

When the Okavango's annual flood is at the highest level (normally May to late September), boating, fishing and mokoro trips are also offered. Elephant, lion, zebra, red lechwe, giraffe, tsessebe and wildebeest can be seen on the floodplains, while kudu, impala, leopard and bushbuck frequent more wooded areas.
