VUMBURA CAMP DESCRIPTION |
ACCOMMODATION
Little
Vumbura is a beautiful six roomed tented camp situated
to the north of Mombo in a private reserve bordering
the Moremi Game Reserve in the northern reaches of the
Okavango Delta. Little Vumbura offers both water and
land activities, as well as walks for those who are
keen. Mekoros (dug-out canoes) traverse the flood plains
under the guidance of our experienced polers.
Open
4x4 Land Rovers allow guests to get close to animals
in the savannah areas. However for much of 2004, this
activity will be limited due to the high annual flood
waters in the Okavango. For much of the March to October
period, we will be boating to dry land and only board
our game viewing vehicles there. Guests usually have
the opportunity to see Lion, Leopard, Elephant, Sable
and Buffalo, along with all the plains game, providing
an excellent all round game experience in this remote
corner of the Okavango.
Walks
(on request basis only) around the islands give guests
the opportunity to enjoy Africa from a different perspective.
The tented rooms are large and comfortably appointed,
with an en-suite bathroom with hot and cold running
water, a shower, and flush toilet - and an outside shower
under the stars.
The
camp has a plunge pool too. Access into this area is
only by aircraft and if the water levels are high in
winter, a mokoro trip and / or a boat will transfer
guests to camp.
