The premium safari destination with the best wildlife viewing. As well as bush activities, sleeping out in the Makgadikgadi without a tent is a must – the sun rising between your toes is unforgettable.

The TRUE experience
Why we love it
- This luxurious lodge was designed with the elements in mind.
- Pool offers views over the immaculate Selinda Spillway.
- The area has a sense of remoteness, a true spirit of Africa, and is a great example of Botswana bush embodying a variety of species and rare animals.
Stay at Selinda Camp
Selinda Camp is built on a shady island overlooking the waters of the Selinda Spillway, an ancient waterway which is the focal point in a vast private concession in northern Botswana. With its large, game-rich floodplains, Selinda Camp offers a unique wildlife experience.
The nine large, luxury tents on extensive raised decks have exceptional views across endless floodplains. The en-suite bathrooms are uniquely “open air” with lots of natural light, yet screened and virtually bug-proof. Four-poster beds with mosquito nets and overhead fans form the center piece of each
room, surrounded by furniture and artifacts collected from around Africa. The main areas comprise a series of expansive decks, and set apart is the photo/art gallery built above a temperature-controlled wine cellar. The Selinda is host to a wide variety of bird species (300+) and wildlife, including hippo, buffalo, zebra, giraffe, cheetah, wild dog, lion, plenty of elephant and several species of antelope. Night drives allow guests to see nocturnal species such as porcupine, spring hare, hyena and perhaps even the elusive leopard.
Experiences
Wildlife Drives
Head out during the prime viewing hours both night and day to follow the wildlife, including lions and large herds of elephants.
Guided Walks
Appreciate the beautiful landscape on foot in utter peace, without the disturbing noise of engines, meaning wildlife will be less alarmed.
Motorised Boating
Head out (when the season's rains permit) on the camp's powerboat to get a true sense of the size of this vast wetland area.
Fishing
Try your hand at catch and release fishing, angling for tilapia bream,and bass, and maybe even a tigerfish if you're feeling adventurous.
Young Explorers
Let your children expand their bush craft skills by following in the footsteps of the National Geographic Explorers in residence.
Photography
Leave your trip with incredible quality photographs by using one of the camp's Canon cameras and lenses which will be downloaded onto a memory stick for you.

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.
