Gomoti Plains Camp

Okavango Delta, Botswana

Named after the river it borders, Gomoti Plains camp lies alongside one of the smaller of the water system's flood plains. Framed by towering palm trees, our iconic canvas tents provide eco-luxurious comfort in an area that is alive with superb land and water-based game-viewing opportunities.

Situated in the Okavango Delta

The Okavango Delta is a rare inland water system. Named a UNESCO World Heritage site and known as “the river that never meets the sea”, this seasonal network of waterways, channels and island shrinks and grows each year, providing a rich habitat to a plethora of birds, insects and animal species.

Explore by motorised boat or mokoro*

Taking a water-based safari by motorised boat or in a traditionally shaped mokoro canoe offers up a completely different world. Based at water level you will see creatures and details that you would otherwise miss from the land. *Please note that these water-based activities are dependent on the water levels, which vary throughout the year.

Big Plains Game

Big plains game and predators

Gomoti is alive with diversity and the chance to spot big plains game, wild dog dens, large prides of lion, big herds of buffalo and sightings of leopard and cheetah. It’s a beauty of a scale that is hard to imagine.

All the comfort without the frills

Machaba Safaris achieves a balance of maximum guest comfort and minimal impact on the environment.

What does this mean?

Machaba Safaris combines the authenticity of the past, the comforts of today and a future-thinking eco-awareness. Our camps feature iconic canvas tents, cooling plunge pools and communal bars and dining areas and reading nooks. We consciously forgo certain conveniences like hairdryers and air-con, and rely on alternative energy to lighten our load on the planet.

How we lighten the load
  • Camp electricity is a hybrid of solar energy and a back-up generator.
  • Low energy consuming appliances and light bulbs.
  • No permanent fixtures means that our campsites can be rehabilitated in 1.5 years.
  • Separate Bio Plants manage kitchen, laundry and staff village solids.
