Nestled in the southeastern corner of Botswana's stunning Okavango Delta, Chitabe Lediba offers an intimate safari experience that perfectly balances luxury with authentic wilderness encounters. This smaller sister camp to Chitabe sits within a private 28,000-hectare concession that borders the renowned Moremi Game Reserve, providing guests with exceptional year-round game viewing opportunities.
The camp takes its name from the Setswana word for "waterhole," and true to form, it overlooks a former lagoon where elephants, buffalo, and various plains game come to drink throughout the day. With just five spacious Meru-style tents raised on wooden decks—including two family units—the camp maintains a wonderfully personal atmosphere that's ideal for families or small groups seeking a more exclusive experience.
What really sets Chitabe Lediba apart is its remarkable diversity of habitats, where the Okavango's wetlands meet the Kalahari's dry landscapes. This unique combination supports an incredible concentration of wildlife, particularly predators. Lion prides, cheetahs, leopards, and the highly sought-after African wild dogs are frequently spotted on morning and evening game drives through varied terrain of mopane woodlands, open grasslands, and seasonal floodplains.
The camp operates entirely on solar power and actively supports conservation efforts through Wild Entrust Africa, particularly focusing on big cat preservation. Guest experiences are enhanced by knowledgeable guides who bring decades of expertise, with some having worked in the area for over twenty years. Whether watching wildlife from the poolside deck or tracking predators at sunset, Chitabe Lediba delivers an unforgettable African safari.
