Duba Plains Camp
Okavango Delta, Botswana
Why we love it
Duba Plains Camp is situated on a remote island among a matrix of palm-dotted islands, flood plains and woodland, within the world-renowned Okavango Delta. Described by guests as “Garden Of Eden”, this camp is a true escape and a true representation of the best natural beauty that Africa has to offer. The camp offers luxury, bespoke tents, that have all been designed specifically to blend into the forest and take advantage of the natural textures and shapes of the landscape surrounding the camp. There is only one operator on the concession, Great Plains Conservation, which offers guests the ultimate opportunity for private wildlife sightings.
Duba Plains Camp prides itself on its extraordinary wildlife
experiences and intimate up-close exposure to the best of the best Botswanan wildlife, including lions, leopards, elephants, buffalo, as well as unusual species including Aardwolf and rare Pangolins. The raised tents offer guest stunning views overlooking the vast floodplains below, as well as the steady stream of wildlife parading past the camp. Each tent boasts a stunning private verandah, offering guests ultimate privacy and relaxation in this wild and breathtaking landscape. The camp’s centre point is the gathering place of all bush experiences – an deck extended out into the swamp, under the giant ebony trees, a true escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life.
Head out either in the day or night in a specially adapted swamp vehicle, fully stocked with drinks and snacks, joining your guide for the best chance of top game viewing.
Appreciate the beauty of the bush without the sound of engines, listening out for wildlife without disturbing it.
Zip through the maze of waterways to get a sense of how huge the Delta truly is, with excellent bird watching opportunities and possibly even hippo sightings.
Whilst a catch-and-release policy is enforced, try to catch any of the 70 species who call the Delta home, including tilapia and bass.
Introduce your children to the bush through a specially-designed programme, where they can learn about animals and how to track wildlife.

The Pitchers
We had the most amazing time! John Barclay and his team were very special and the mobile safari exclusive and superb. Moremi was very quiet with few other tourists – no more than a dozen other vehicles seen in four days. Macatoo was also excellent with good riding and game. We were so grateful for the help that you offered when our BA flights went wrong. Many thanks again for the superb service and recommendations which made for a great holiday.
