Machaba Safaris: Botswana Kiri Camp Opening Special | Кири Кемп Ботсвана

Machaba Safaris Botswana

Kiri Camp Opening Special

Our Kiri Camp Opens in June!

Kiri Camp

Okavango Delta, Kiri River

Kiri Camp offers a combination of both game drives and water activities. Based on a private concession, these activities will take you to some of the more remote areas in the delta, previously inaccessible. A motorboat ride during peak flood times promises to enthrall you and captivate you, with the chance of seeing iconic wildlife from the river.

Glide on quiet mokoro’s through the water lilies and view wildlife from below as you sail along at water level height. The wildlife in the Kiri area is diverse and plentiful, renown for its lion and buffalo interactions and rare wild dog numbers. As Kiri Camp is in a private concession, off road and night driving are allowed, as are armed nature walks through the surrounding islands with knowledgeable guides.

Capturing the spirit of Africa in one of her most untamed wildernesses and offering life-changing safari experiences is at the heart of what we do. With this in mind, the opening of Kiri Camp is another opportunity for us to share more unforgettable safaris with you. 

To celebrate the start of another exciting adventure in Botswana, we are offering an  Opening Special at Kiri Camp!

Our newest treasure is situated on a private concession which allows our guests to experience night drives and walking safaris. Our proximity to the floodplain means that you can also enjoy a relaxing meander down the river in a mokoro or motorboat. Consisting of two family tents, and eight double tents raised on elevated, wooden decks, feel the openness with vast sweeping views of the Okavango Delta and the calm tranquility of the African bush.

Zimbabwe: new Verney’s Camp

#Zimbabwe #VerneysCamp #HwangeNationalPark #MachabaSafaris #OkavangoDelta #GomotiPlains

Machaba Safaris is delighted to introduce a brand new Verney’s Camp which opened in May 2018 in a remote 10,000 hectare private concession in the south eastern section of Zimbabwe’s iconic Hwange National Park.  
Verney’s Camp boasts ten luxury safari tents (8 double / twins and 2 family tents), all built on wooden decks at ground level, tucked perfectly under the shady arms of the teak forest and overlooking a busy waterhole frequented by Hwange’s famous elephants. Each tent has been carefully positioned for maximum privacy and enjoyment of the views, connected by natural pathways to the central guest area. Tents are beautifully appointed complete with en-suite bathroom with shower, toilet and double vanity basins.

At Machaba Safaris we pride ourselves in our community development and initiatives ensuring the wildlife, local communities and guests all benefit. Machaba co-sponsors a local school in Hwange National Park which guests can visit as a half day tour. The tour also stops at a small rural village and the Wild Dog Research Centre.

Rates are fully inclusive of accommodation, all meals, laundry, lodge activities, return vehicle airstrip transfers (for drive-ins from Victoria Falls), drinks including most alcohol (excluding imported and premium drinks) levies and taxes.

Access is via a 40 minute flight from Vic Falls Airport to Manga Airstrip and then a 45 minute road transfer. It is a 3.5 hour drive from Victoria Falls via Hwange Main Camp.
Machaba Safaris is a family owned collection of 4 safari experiences including 3 camps in Botswana’s iconic Okavango Delta, namely Machaba Camp, Little Machaba and Gomoti Plains – plus the new Verney’s in Zimbabwe. Our lodges offer excellent value for money and a true wilderness experience including mekoro (canoe) safaris, game drives and walks.
