Camp information:

Eagle Island Camp in Botswana’s Okavango Delta is the ultimate luxury safari paradise.

Situated on remote Xaxaba island among a web of waterways and lush vegetation, it overlooks a lagoon that attracts a breathtaking variety of big game and exotic birds. Explore the region by local canoe, set out on a game drive or roam on foot.

A wonderful secluded retreat, Eagle Island Camp offers a safari vacation that brings together the excitement of discovery and an experience of the real Africa: this is the spirit of Orient-Express through and through.

All luxury tents are housed on raised wooden platforms, offering great views, and shaded by a traditional African thatch roof. The large private decks are furnished with easy chairs and a hammock, ideal for viewing wildlife, or for enjoying a private dinner in complete privacy.

The tent interiors are luxuriously appointed with such comforts as an en suite bathroom, private fully stocked mini bar, four poster bed complete with mosquito netting, as well as a discreet air conditioning.

With incredible views cross the Okavango Delta and delicious food to match, the dining experience at Eagle Island Camp is one to remember.

After dinner enjoy the bar and lounge areas. Seated around our camp fire you can share stories of the days experiences with other guests or simply curl up and relax while the wildlife in the Delta does the same.

Game Viewing:

Helicopter Safaris; The propellers hum into action and suddenly a vast, green panorama opens up below. This is the Okavango Delta as you have never experienced it before: remote, inaccessible lakes and islands seen from the sky.

Mokoro Canoe Safari; This traditional dugout canoe takes you gliding over shallow, clear waters past brilliant water lilies and papyrus grasses to areas inaccessible by boat. Climb aboard and stretch out, with your body just above the water line.

Game Drives; Early morning game drives take you out and among an almost unparalleled diversity of wildlife, passing through a range of different habitats. Expect to see a huge range of creatures, from big cats to hippo, giraffe and crocodiles.

Walking Safari; On a walking safari through the delta you are totally enveloped in nature. You spot amazing things close-up: an insect, animal tracks, big game droppings, swarming termite mounds. These small, unexpected aspects of life often make the biggest impression.

Fishing; Set off by boat in the stillness of the morning, gliding out into the lagoon…a fishing trip is all about the experience. Relax, absorb the scenery, watch wildlife and birds all around, enjoy a drink….oh, and with a trained fisherman guide at your side, you are highly likely to make a catch.
