We were made to feel very welcome on arrival at the camp. After a informative brief we were taken to our extremely comfortable tent which had a beautiful view of the delta. The tents were cooled by running water over the roof during the day and this proved to be effective as well as needed. On joining other guests at... More

So during a roadtrip in Botswana we spent two nights at the Xakanaxa Camp. I have to say the whole experience was amazing and I doubt it will be surpassed anywhere else in Africa. The reasons - 1) Our guide was exceptional - Baams was not only charming and polite, but realy knew his stuff and was humourous and a... More

At this time of the year the game is more difficult to track down but the amount seen on one drive was encouraging if not so good the next two drives. Birds were very good and our guide Olly was very well informed about birds as well as the fauna. The accommodation is superb and the common areas are also... More

We stayed here just before christmas for 2 nights and had a great experience. The setting of Xakanaxa right on the edge of the river with views across the veldt is stunning, particularly at sunset. The lounge area is very comfortable and nicely decorated. The food was delicious home cooked loveliness! I would highly recommend the omelettes at brunch as... More

Having previously been on safari's in Kenya and South Africa, we chose Botswana as we thought it would be different. This tented camp is situated in the Moremi national park and you have to respect their conservation rules so no driving off-track to get closer to the game, no night drives or walking safaris but they do offer you a...

We recently spent a night camping at Xakanaxa which was a great experience. The camping sites are well indicated and ablutions are clean. The camp has wonderful views and abundant wildlife live in the area. I would recommend these camp sites to anyone.

Executive summery is the following: If you are looking forward to the "once in a lifetime safari experience", please go somewhere else. No matter the price (which is too expensive, by an order of magnitude), look somewhere that will ensure a better experience. Having been on over 10 safari's myself, I would rate this one at the botton, and seriously... More

After being at Camp Savuti (see review), this camp seemed to us a second choice safari experience. The camp was much bigger and much less remote. The staff was very distant, would not say unfriendly, but perhaps more "servile", which somehow made us feel less at ease. Our guide was also quite laid back and even though knowledgeable we had...

Xakanaxa is a well designed camp with comfortable tents that allow for plenty of privacy and each tent has a nice deck overlooking the river with very comfortable seats. The food is excellent. The communal tables for dinner encourages interesting and fun evenings and the atmosphere was very good. The camp also has a decent size pool (something we did... More
