After a long flight to Jo'Burg and two shorter ones to Maun and then Okuti, we were introduced to Botswana. This was the first leg of our two-week safari and we were utterly impressed. Being from Canada, we were very familiar with "rustic" - but this kind of "rustic" took our breath away. Huge rooms, outdoor showers (where the sun... More

We stayed in April for three nights at the Okute Camp with our 9 year old daughter. This camp is splendid, perfectily situated with postcard views and managed perfectly. The team at the Camp made the difference and were fabulous. The rooms are very large, even with balcony and clean. Food and wine at the camp were excellent. We have... More

We went to Okuti camp, so said a 5 star camp. We enjoyed the trip but expected more from the camp itself. Rooms were very nice but there was no bath as you would expect in a 5 star place. Also if you wanted to dry your hair with a hairdryer you had to go to the lounge where there... More

Having spent 2 nights in the desert the delta was a total contrast and okuti is perfectly situated to take in the environment. Looking over the xackanaxa lagoon the room was not what I would describe as a tent it was beautifully constructed with carved hardwood indoor and fleshing out door shower nice touch. Saw the big five and my... More

Our second camp on the trip to Okavango absolutely lived up to the standard of the first. No complaints whatsoever except we wanted to stay longer. Aubrey was a superb guide. The staff were so helpfull and friendly, nothing was too much trouble.

I cannot begin to share our amazing memories from the Okuti Camp. The staff is friendly and helpful. Our every moment with the Okuti staff was impressively informative and interesting. We loved the communal dining experiences and delightful menus. Our guide was knowledgable and informative. Our room/tent/house was beautifully decorated and private, with a view that kept my camera busy.

Okuti is a delightful camp. The staff are extremely attentive and welcoming and our guide Solly was knowledgeable, accommodating and good fun. The rooms are very comfortable and the views wonderful. Things do go “bump” in the night but we are in the middle of a game reserve and the camp is “open”. The nets are effective and we did... More

Really good lodge. Fantastic staff and the rooms are so unique. Good food and a great service. Everything you could want from a lodge. Beautiful location but the forest does make wildlife viewing difficult. A really peaceful space to enjoy the amazing scenery. Special mention to our guide Isaac, really made our trip. Highly recommended

We spent two nights in this intimate resort in the Okavango delta. The accommodations were spacious and comfortable. The views onto the river were wonderful. What a treat it was to sit on our balcony and listen to the chirping of the birds and insects while watching the reeds in the water sway in the wind. There is very little... More

We stayed at Camp Okuti for 2 days, on our first trip to Botswana. The camp is situated along a river, and the rooms overlook the river. The views are amazing especially at sunrise and sunset. Lovely decor, thatched roofs and traditional furnishings make this camp one of a kind. The variety and quality of foods was amazing too. And... More
