Jao Camp is located on a large, remote island in a private reserve bordering the Moremi Game Reserve in the heart of the Delta. With habitats that vary from waterways and lagoons to dry Kalahari grasslands, this camp can offer both land and water experiences depending on the Okavango’s flood levels.

The camp has nine spacious, beautiful tents, each individually handcrafted. These twin–bedded canvas and thatched rooms are situated beneath a canopy of shady trees and have en–suite facilities, as well as an outdoor shower. The rooms are built on raised decks, each with a private sala for afternoon siestas and offering wonderful views of the surrounding floodplains.

In addition to the lounge and dining area, there is a plunge pool and an outdoor boma for dining under the stars, complemented by wines from the excellent wine cellar. Jao also features a salon where a wide range of massage therapies are offered. Mokoros, boating, fishing, walks, day and night game drives and bird watching are usually on offer all year round.
