Shinde Camp

STOP PRESS Shinde is undergoing a complete rebuild from 6th January and will reopen on the 1 June 2020 in its new guise. We understand that it will retaining an authentic classic safari style yet provide luxury with a touch of historical charm. It will have eight guest tents, including one family unit sleeping a maximum of 5 people. Watch this space (or give us a call) for further updates. Shinde, meaning "tree squirrel" in Setswana, is situated on the edge of an area of deep water and lagoons in the heart of the Okavango Delta. It's a well-established camp in a private reserve just to the north of the Moremi Game Reserve. Its wide open floodplains sit alongside some very pretty waterways, allowing for a mixture of both land and water activities.

Our view of Shinde Camp

Shinde is quite a traditional safari camp with something of a tree-house feel to the main area. The tented chalets are spacious and beautifully decorated and we like this camp for its mix of both water- and land-based activities, its very warm welcome and its team of experienced guides – although big-game viewing can be a little sporadic between November and May. Shinde works very well in combination with dry-area camps in both the Delta and the Kwando–Linyanti/Chobe areas.
