Jao Camp

Jao Camp is located within its own private game concesion (in a private game reserve bordering the Moremi Game Reserve) in the Okavango Delta. The fluctuating water levels in the Delta dictate the type and numbers of game and the activities available at the camp.

Accommodation & Facilities
The camp consists of nine spacious rooms with adjoining bathrooms and a ‘sala’ area, the rooms are raised up on wooden decks underneath the tree canopy and surrounded by lush palms. The central lounge, dining and bar area has a natural thatched roof. Guests at Jao Camp can relax around one of the two swimming pools, use the gym and massages are available on request.

Wildlife & Activities
Wildlife viewing from Jao Camp is excellent-with lion, leopard, and cheetah regularly sighted. Zebra, tsessebe, red lechwe, wildebeest, giraffe, and warthog wander the flood plains and herds of buffalo move in and out of the reserve at will. Night drives are available and are a good way to view animals not often seen during the day, such as pangolin, porcupine, spotted hyena, civet, spring hare, bushbabies, and genets.  The camp organizes walking safaris and boat trips.  You may also use the mokoro (dug-out canoes) to drift along the narrow waterways of the Okavango Delta.
