Chitabe is situated in a private area in the south-east of the Okavango, on one of the most beautiful islands in the Okavango Delta. It is in an enormous concession that borders Botswana’s Moremi Game Reserve. Chitabe Camp has the full diversity of Okavango scenery with open floodplains, waterways, marshlands, dry acacia, mopane woodland, riverine areas and open grasslands.
Chitabe’s eight spacious East African-style tents are built on elevated wooden decks amongst the trees. Each tent has en-suite facilities and an indoor as well as an outdoor shower. The thatched dining area, bar and lounge are built on raised decks to provide superb views across the floodplain, and a pool allows guests to cool off in the heat of the day.
The variety of habitats at Chitabe creates an abundance of wildlife to be seen, including elephant, buffalo, lion, leopard, cheetah, giraffe, zebra, reedbuck and impala. The elusive wild dog is also occasionally sighted. Night drives provide opportunities for guests to see nocturnal creatures such as civet, serval, genet, pangolin, porcupine and aardwolf. Other activities include safari nature walks and spectacular bird watching. Chitabe also has two elevated hides located in the reserve, where guests can experience a "sleep out" under the stars of the Okavango Delta in full comfort and safety.
