EnquireOkuti is a stylish, riverside camp in the Moremi National Park, part of the Okavango Delta, Northern Botswana. A charming camp in one of Botswana’s prime areas for game viewing, this is a popular location with sweeping views and plentiful wildlife.
The main areas of camp are large, thatched rondavels housing the main reception, lounge and dining areas. There is also a decking area surrounding a small pool with beautiful views across the lagoon. The camp was refurbished in 2014, transforming the décor into a much more innovative, modern design. Influenced by the water surrounding the property, the atmosphere is calm and tranquil.
Activities at Okuti are focused on exploring the resident wildlife in the area. With consistent year round game viewing, drives in open top vehicles are led by experienced rangers throughout the Moremi National Park. It is worth noting that this is a highly visited area during the high season and often you will see other vehicles out on safari. Motorboat safaris are a huge highlight of this lodge with some excellent birds to be seen, especially during the breeding season. Heron, stork, white egrets and red cormorants can all be spotted in the ‘mini heronry’. Due to park restrictions night drives, walking safaris and off-roading are not permitted which does restrict any further activities.
The accommodation here is comprised of only five reed-lined rooms, a honeymoon suite and two family units. All the rooms are ensuite with indoor and outdoor showers and the honeymoon suite has a bathtub. Whilst the mosasa (ancient tribal word for house of reeds) are fairly close in proximity, each has its own private deck with lovely river views giving guests a sense of privacy.
Children seven years and over are welcome all year round at Okuti. The two family units are ideal accommodation for families, especially as it is rare to find interconnecting rooms in this area. Whilst no specific children’s programme is in place, guides will do their best to tailor activities around families.
This is a high quality camp with great staff and strong game viewing at a slightly lower cost than many other properties in the surrounding area.
We had an extraordinary time. It was magical and we couldn't hav asked or hoped for more. Thank you both so much for all of your time and assistance.

We had an amazing experience - absolutely loved it.
Mohamed and Said were great and very patient especially with me going downhill - was quite nervous about the scree slopes and paths.Will be a trip we remember forever

Trip was great and all the arrangements were excellent so thank you for all the help!
Drivers and transfers were all good - on time and very good service on each trip.
Accommodation was lovely - Douar Samra was amazing (weather could have been better but lovely regardless). Riad in Marrakesh was also great!
All in all a great trip and we loved the variety of the mountains, Marrakesh and the coast.
Thanks you once again!
