Overview

What we love about Wilderness Mombo Camp

Wilderness Mombo Camp offers an exclusive safari base in Moremi in Okavango Delta, Botswana, where water, island and floodplain slowly rearrange the day. This iconic camp holds just seven opulent tents and a family unit and offers a host of additional amenities and communal spaces designed to immerse guests in an exceptional wildlife experience. As Wilderness Mombo is situated in a designated game reserve, activities are limited to daylight hours but remain fairly intimate given it's setting. All the big cats and wild dog can be encountered here.

Awards

What awards & Acclaims have they received?

Condé Nast Traveler: Readers' Choice Awards 2025

Condé Nast Traveler: Readers' Choice Awards 2025 gives Wilderness Mombo Camp a recent formal marker of recognition. Its wider reputation rests on its wildlife dense setting, thoughtful hospitality, guest attentiveness, luxury standards and a lodge rhythm where water, island and floodplain slowly rearrange the day.

Location

Okavango Delta, Botswana

Wilderness Mombo Camp sits in Chief's Island in the Moremi Game Reserve North East area of the Okavango Delta, Botswana, within a shifting world of floodplains, islands and papyrus channels. The Reserve is a UNESCO World Heritage site in one of the best wildlife viewing spots in the world. The setting keeps the stay grounded in the surrounding landscape, with wildlife, light and distance shaping the sense of place before each day’s safari begins.

From the UK, most safari trips route via Johannesburg or regional hubs, then continue to Maun, Kasane or a light-aircraft network.

Botswana’s premium safari areas are usually fly-in destinations, especially the Delta and northern private concessions.

Perfect for The Called & The Curator

Wilderness Mombo Camp speaks first to The Called travellers through a powerful sense of return, place, and emotional pull into wilderness.
