Duba Explorers Camp

About

Duba Explorers Camp is part of the Great Plains Conservation portfolio, a group known for its commitment to preserving Africa’s wildlife and wilderness. Set on an island within the Okavango Delta, the camp is surrounded by diverse habitats, including savannahs, wetlands, and forests, which attract an incredible array of wildlife. The camp itself embraces a low-impact, eco-friendly philosophy while offering a high-end, comfortable safari experience. With its secluded location, the camp ensures exclusivity, hosting only a small number of guests at a time. The emphasis is on intimate game drives and excursions that focus on the environment’s preservation and the close observation of Botswana’s famed wildlife, from lions and elephants to leopards and birds of prey.‍

Rooms

‍The camp features five spacious and luxurious tented suites that reflect the spirit of classic safari adventures while providing modern comforts. Each suite is raised on wooden decks and designed to blend seamlessly with the natural surroundings. The tents feature en-suite bathrooms with hot-water showers and eco-friendly toiletries, offering both convenience and sustainability. Large canvas windows allow natural light to filter in, and guests can enjoy sweeping views of the surrounding floodplains from their private decks. The decor is simple yet elegant, with a focus on natural materials and an earthy colour palette that complements the environment. While the camp is remote, solar power ensures that essential amenities are available, maintaining the camp’s eco-conscious ethos.‍
