Zarafa Camp

Zarafa Camp is an intimate, four-room, exquisite tented camp located on the 330,000-acre Selinda Reserve in northern Botswana, an area linking the Okavango Delta and the Chobe/Savute corridors. Its villa, the Dhow Suites, consists of two tents and a private main area and operates entirely independently of the main camp.

Few camps rival the location of this little gem, Botswana’s first and only Relais and Chateaux property. Overlooking the crystal waters of Zibadianja Lagoon, the source of the famous Savute Channel, every area of camp has a magnificent view. The lagoon is also the water source for a tremendous population of wildlife, dry season sightings boast buffalo and elephant by the hundreds.

Zarafa Safari Camp in Botswana offers spacious canvas suites built from reclaimed materials, powered mainly by solar energy and biogas, with activities that include day and night game drives, guided walks, seasonal cruises on the lagoon and the complimentary use of high-quality camera equipment for photographing lions, elephants, wild dogs and other wildlife, making Zarafa Camp Selinda Reserve in Botswana a refined choice for guests who value both comfort and strong conservation practices.
