Gunn’s Camp

Gunn’s Camp is one of the last bastions of colonial vintage exclusivity so come and see for yourself one of our top Botswana safari camps in a prime wilderness setting overlooking Moremi Game Reserve. We think that the luxury Gunn’s Camp blends perfectly into the wilderness deep in the Okavango Delta next to Chief’s Island, hallowed for its plentiful birds and predators. Get good value for your money with excellent game viewing experiences, boating and walking safaris deluxe! 

Come and experience 6 elegant, lavish traditional safari-style tents with pleasurable en-suite stand-alone bathtubs and alfresco showers with bush views. Elevated on timber decks with infinite Okavango and floodplain views, these canvas chalets are heavenly refuges for romance and solitude in nature.  Shaded under dense tree canopies so typical of the islands in the delta, each tent is solid, wooden and elegantly decorated with sensuous lounges and space to read a book.

Meet fellow guests around the evening campfire in the boma where meat meals and side dishes are Botswana specialities and where the owls toot and leopards grunt. Chief’s Island is THE predator capital of the Okavango so listen out for lions roaring too. Swim in the pool during the heat of the day and game view at all hours from the attractive main deck space. Sustainable tourism is here at Gunn’s Camp, one of the legendary camps in the Delta leading the way in green energies such as solar geysers and lights and the gentle mokoro safaris up the channels making no sound, no pollution.
