Camp Xakanaxa
Timeless Safari Elegance on the Banks of the Khwai River.Moremi Game Reserve, Botswana
Tucked into the heart of Botswana’s Moremi Game Reserve along the banks of the Khwai River, Camp Xakanaxa (pronounced Ka-ka-na-ka) delivers an authentic and serene safari experience amidst the untamed beauty of the Okavango Delta. The camp offers year-round land and water-based game viewing in a region known for its dramatic landscapes, seasonal floodplains, and high concentrations of wildlife. Designed in classic safari style, the camp blends luxury with nostalgia through East African canvas tents, teak walkways, and a tranquil riverside setting where elephants, hippos, and antelope frequently roam nearby.
Camp Xakanaxa provides an intimate atmosphere, catering to just a small number of guests, which ensures personalized service and immersive wildlife encounters. Days begin with game drives in open 4x4s and end with sunset boat cruises or campfire dining under the stars. The staff, many of whom have been with the camp for years, offer warm hospitality and deep local knowledge. Whether you’re a first-time visitor or a seasoned traveler, Camp Xakanaxa delivers an unforgettable connection to Botswana’s rich natural heritage.
