Starting with the welcome singing by the entire staff upon arrival and ending our stay on the last night with a singing and drumming party, the whole experience was wonderful. This camp, in a remote setting in the Okovango Delta, was like going to a cottage setting. The camp was small and intimate where the staff all greeted us by... More

Maybe not what you would expect from a traditional luxury game lodge in design, but I really enjoyed it! The funky design was something novel and I felt that it worked. The feeling of less is more was great with a massive room and all the creature comforts and a great outdoor shower. The food was excellent and the staff... More

From the moment we arrived at the airstrip the staff from Okuti made us feel welcome. Each staff member we met was friendly, and went out of their way to make our stay enjoyable. The 'tent' was lovely, had everything we required, was clean and very comfortable. I really enjoyed the outdoor bath. Lights are out at night, but torches... More

We were on a 4 camp 25th wedding anniversary mega holiday. The camps we visited were Okuti and Kanana (both Ker & Downey) and Santuary Stanleys, and Sanctuary Sussi and Chuma (Sanctuary Retreats). All camps provided complimentary shower gel, shampoo and conditioner. A small point maybe, but I had checked and been told that some didn’t. To summarise before I... More

The Okuti Safari Lodge was lovely and the staff were very helpful and friendly. Each villa was clean, comfortable and self contained. The meals were fabulous and every night afterwards people collected around the camp fire and chatted. Sometimes they even gave a song and dance performance which was mesmerizing. The safaris and the guides were brilliant and you could... More

Check travelling season if you expect wild animals. The bed room is absolutely too bright for sleeping, from natural light . Take the morning option for the boat trip. they recommend the afternoon but you will be burnt to a crisp by the late afternoon sun. If you like to be private or honeymoon trip, I won't recommend because you... More

Lovely lodge -- the food was EXCELLENT and the staff very nice and helpful. We came here as part of our honeymoon and found ourselves greeted with a card and bottle of champagne in our room, the honeymoon suite. Beautiful location -- we enjoyed ourselves thoroughly. Game drives with Amos were wonderful -- saw all kinds of wildlife, including lions.... More

We had the pleasure of staying at Okuti as part of a 12 day trip in Botswana and Zambia. The camp is awesome, fantastic facilities and wonderful game drives, including hot water bottles and blankets! The sheer pleasure the staff took in the job they did was a lesson to all. It was particularly impressive to see that they were... More

We spent eight nights in Botswana and two in Zambia and our two nights at Okuti were the highlight of what was an excellent holiday all round. The room was fantastic - loads of space, indoor shower and outdoor bath, balcony overlooking the river, hippos just outside at night! Lovely, friendly atmosphere with communal meals round a big table and... More
