Children of all ages welcome

SandibeSandibe is set right on a channel of the Okavango Delta, which glints through a maze of brilliant green papyrus.
  • Game drives
  • Bush walks
  • Night drives
  • Mokoro trips
  • Boat cruise

Sandibe is set in a cool forest canopy of wild palms and gnarled fig trees.  Ancient baobabs, some still bearing a winding garland of climbing pegs, used many years ago by the Bayei (River Bushmen) in search of honey, are within walking distance of the lodge.

In the heart of the camp, tucked under the forest canopy, is the lounge and dining area with quiet, hammocked decks affording views across the waterways and savannahs.  Pan-African dinners are prepared and served in the open boma that also boasts a unique charcoal cooled wine cellar.
