“The elegant river oasis that truly slows you down, while feeling every sunrise: now the adventure begins!”
Hidden in a private concession in the southwest of the Okavango Delta, on the banks of the Xudum River, lies Kanana Camp. This is the place where pure safari touches you, in tranquility, nature, and elegance. Seven spacious tents, plus one family tent, bring you to the heart of the bush experience. With stylish comfort and the most beautiful nature as a backdrop.

A classic lodge with a modern flair
The camp exudes a refined 1920’s explorer feel: spacious suites, all with ensuite bathrooms, soft linen beds, warm outdoor showers, and private verandas. All tucked away among palms, fluffy reed collars, and glistening waterways. Three keywords that perfectly describe this fantastic place? Chic, understated, comfortable.
Safari as it was meant to be
Thanks to its location in a private concession, there are no limitations. Land and water safaris alternate:
- Game drives in morning and evening light, followed by thrilling nocturnal adventures
- Mokoro, motorboats, and canoeing in seasons with sufficient water
- Bush walks, sleep-out nights on the deck, and fishing opportunities with catch & release
- Top birding with access to huge heronries and night birding gems like Pel’s Fishing Owl
- You are not just traveling here; you are truly present.

Wild, water & expansiveness
In the Kanana Concession, open grasslands effortlessly mingle with wetlands and forest areas. Elephants, buffaloes, and hippos appear naturally in the most beautiful view you have ever seen. And predators like lions, leopards, and wild dogs are also known in this region. Oh, and the area is also rich in birds, reptiles, and plants. The best part? You experience everything in serene silence.
Luxury with feeling
After a legendary safari, you do not simply return to a lodge. You come home to Kanana Camp, where you feel warmth, style, and elegance in everything around you. Think of: a peaceful lounge with books and good coffee, delightful dinners under the starry sky, and everything with personal attention. Just as it should be in Botswana.
