Set in the legendary Khwai Private Concession, Tuludi Camp is the perfect destination to explore one of the most productive areas of the Okavango Delta. Commanding breathtaking views over a classic Delta landscape – shimmering floodplains backed by majestic riverine forest – the camp overlooks a permanent waterhole visited by elephants and big cats.

Morning and afternoon 4x4 game drives take you into the wilderness, expertly navigated by a local guide. You also have the chance to take to the water by motorboat or mokoro (traditional canoe) and gain a different insight into the Okavango’s ecology. And since the camp lies in a privately run reserve, you can also choose to go on guided bush walks – highly recommended for birders and photographers.

Built in partnership with the local community and contributing to its development, Tuludi is a small camp comprising of only seven luxurious suites. Each is extremely spacious and raised off the ground for great views; you will not just have an indoor and outdoor bathroom but a private plunge pool and battery-charging station too. The exclusive, somewhat intimate atmosphere means that it’s perfect for couples and honeymooners, but Tuludi Camp also welcomes families with children aged six and over. Privately guided vehicles are available and one of the suites is a family unit that sleeps four.

Enjoying the advantage of both water and land habitats, Tuludi Camp is open all year round. Water levels are highest during the dry winter period – May to September – and so offers the best time to explore by boat as well as to see impressive concentrations of wildlife. The summer rains trigger an explosion of greenery and many animals such as impala and warthog give birth – good for predator interaction – and the bird watching is especially rewarding.

Rooms

Double Tented Suite

With over 100 square meters (1 080 square feet) of indoor and outdoor living space, you won’t have to worry about feeling cramped in your suite at Tuludi Camp. Set under shady trees and raised off the ground, each suite has a separate dressing and sleeping area, en suite bathroom plus the luxury of both an indoor and outdoor shower and bathtub. Made of timber and canvas and with a clean, contemporary feel, the suites have a magnificent view of the delta floodplains and come complete with a private plunge pool, electric light, and a battery charging station.

Family Tented Suite

Available with twin beds or a double bed, one of the suites can accommodate another two beds to make it ideal for families with children.

Facilities

Raised above the ground and overlooking the camp’s waterhole, Tuludi’s main areas are a pleasing blend of timber and canvas with a fluid design of indoor and outdoor areas. Comfortable chairs are set on the various viewing decks, and a short walkway takes you to the fire pit where you sit after the day and swap safari stories under a starry sky. The camp’s large swimming pool is a welcome sight on a hot day, and you can do some extra research in the camp’s library, mounted in the boughs of a giant tree.

Dining

Botswana’s wonderful climate means many meals are served on the camp’s outdoor viewing deck, although covered dining areas are available to beat the heat or rain. The day begins with an early-morning wake-up call with hot drinks and biscuits and a light breakfast before your morning activity. You return for a hearty home-cooked brunch – English breakfast if you like, or perhaps pasta dishes, a quiche, and salad – with the prospect of afternoon tea and cakes too. You enjoy cold drinks and snacks out on your afternoon activity and sit down in the evening to a three-course dinner complete with house wines. Various dietary requirements can be catered for with advance notification.
