wildlife conservation program

This safari camp is located on a private island deep in the Okavango Delta, a UNESCO heritage site renowned for its tremendous biodiversity. It is an exceptional location for discovering the fauna and flora of this “river that never reaches the ocean” in a flat-bottomed boat or a traditional fisherman’s canoe. Sitatunga Private Island is an exclusive retreat encircled by narrow, crystal-clear waterways winding toward the vast Okavango swamps in the south. At Sitatunga Private Island, the 2 canvas-constructed suites, each with a private veranda and pool, are raised off the ground and have been designed to hang in gigantic bamboo-and-wood-inspired “fishing baskets,” a nod to the local fishermen. The interior décor is a collection of natural woods, rugs, and ethnic furniture, creating a refined ambiance of calm and relaxation.

Activities, excursions and other attractions during your stay at Sitatunga Private Island Hotel

Guided walking safaris

To explore the landscape on foot is to feel intimately connected to it: in fact, it’s the best way to appreciate the sheer variety and minute nuances of local flora and fauna. With experienced guides, you can take in the sounds and scents of the savannah, learn to recognize animal trails and track them, observe the smallest things and get as close as possible to the largest... Expect an exhilarating tailor-made adventure, adapted to the age and physical condition of participants.

Water safaris

The region’s omnipresent water adds an extra layer to your safari experience. Take advantage of Sitatunga Private Island’s exceptional location to explore the reed-lined waterways of the Okavango Delta, one of the largest rivers on the planet. Observe the abundant local wildlife from aboard a motorboat or, if water levels permit in its narrower tributaries, from a mokoro, a traditional pole-operated boat.
