Mbamba is where wildlife and adventure takes centre stage.

Situated in a game-rich private concession in the northern reaches of the Okavango Delta, Mbamba is known for exceptional year-round wildlife viewing across land and water, promising none-stop wildlife action at every turn. Located in an area that offers superb game viewing year-round, here the wildlife action never stops. Every bit a Ralph Bousfield camp, it offers a blend of remarkable guided wilderness experiences and a classic safari style.

The camp is in a superb setting where you’ll instantly be immersed into the Okavango Delta’s true wonder. With some of the best safari guides in the business, and a variety of land and water-based activities, you can look forward to a rewarding wildlife experience in this game-rich private concession. In-between action filled game viewing activities, relax around the camp pool or take a siesta in the comfort of your air-conditioned tent. This is an ideal camp for those seeking a deeper understanding of the natural world in a very relaxed environment.

Explore the Delta by mokoro and boat, head out in search of predators and other big game on daily game drives and night drives, then return to camp where timeless safari style and relaxed comfort offer the perfect reset between adventures.

The open grasslands, floodplains, forests, and lagoons include large concentrations of wild dogs and lions as well as elephants, buffalo, giraffes, sable antelope, leopards, a rich variety of bird species, and more. And while there are twice-daily game drives—with seasonal options for boating or mokoro (dugout canoe) excursions—the presence of (almost) permanent water holes directly in front of the camp means you will be fully immersed in the abundant wildlife of the area even without leaving the camp itself. In the afternoons, join other guests to watch from the main tent’s multiple lounge areas equipped with comfortably plush couches and chairs draped in sumptuous fabrics—or perch on one the nearby swimming pool’s red-and-white striped loungers—as the area’s wildlife head for a cooling drink. At night, pull up an upholstered antique stool and challenge a fellow traveler to a game of chess, or simply relax with a book from the library and a drink from the well-stocked honesty bar before heading to your room (always with an escort after the sun sets) to fall asleep to the sound of hyenas and lions.
