Dukes Camp

Duke’s Camp is a luxury safari lodge set in the remote northwestern Okavango Delta, adjacent to the Moremi Game Reserve. Located on an expansive private concession, it offers guests exclusive access to one of the most wildlife-rich and ecologically diverse areas in Botswana. Elevated on wooden decks beneath ebony and leadwood trees, Duke’s Camp’s safari tents combine traditional under-canvas style with refined comfort, inspired by the design heritage of the iconic Jack’s Camp.

Duke’s Camp’s location provides year-round opportunities for both land and water-based activities, including game drives, mokoro excursions, boating, fishing, and scenic helicopter flights. The concession is notable for its high concentrations of predators, particularly lions, as well as large herds of elephants, seasonal zebra migrations, and over 350 recorded bird species. Expert guides, trained to exceptional standards, lead every excursion, ensuring informative and safe exploration of the delta’s channels, floodplains, and woodlands.

Dining follows the Jack’s Camp tradition, with meals served in a vintage-style mess tent or outdoors beneath the trees, using antique silverware and fine glassware. The facilities at Duke’s Camp include a pool pavilion, library, tea tent, and communal dining area, creating a balance between wilderness immersion and guest comfort.
