Vumbura Plains Camp

tented camp 14 suites in total — Vumbura Plains North (7) and Vumbura Plains South (7)

Vumbura Plains is two separate seven-suite camps, North and South, on a private concession in the far north of the Delta held in partnership with the Okavango Community Trust and five local villages. The ground mixes permanent floodplain with dry islands and open plains, so the camp runs both land and water programmes: twice-daily game drives, mokoro trips, motorboat outings, guided walks, catch-and-release fishing and birding. Suites are raised and widely spaced, each with its own plunge pool. Wildlife includes lion, leopard, wild dog, buffalo and sable. Operated by Wilderness, which publishes nightly rates and GPS coordinates in the camp page's structured data.

About the photographs

The pictures on this page are stock photographs of African bush and desert country, chosen to suggest the kind of landscape you find around the Okavango Delta, Botswana. They are not photographs of this property, and we cannot verify where any of them was taken — a stock library records the photographer, not the place. We use them rather than borrow the property's own marketing images, which would imply we had been there. For pictures of the rooms, see the property's own site.
