Gomoti Plains Camp

Named after the river it borders, Gomoti Plains Camp lies alongside one of the smaller of the water system’s flood plains.

Framed by towering palm trees, our iconic canvas tents provide eco-luxurious comfort in an area that is alive with superb land and water-based game-viewing opportunities.

Gomoti Plains Camp is named after the Gomoti River situated nearby with roaming flood plains

based on either side of the camp strewn with towering palm trees, built with our iconic signature

Machaba style tents, and decorations taking in the local theme of water and land, both essential to life in the Okavango Delta, offering our guests a unique safari experience incorporating the natural surrounding habitat.

Gomoti Plains Camp offers the perfect pairing with both Machaba Camps both in affordability, luxury and diverse offering.

Safari at Gomoti Plains Camp Botswana

From game drives to untamed walking safaris under the care of our highly trained guides, there is always something to see and do.

Experience our unique water-based activities depending on the season, and the water levels during your visit.

As the Okavango Delta floods and the water-levels rise, our safaris take to the waters.

Inspired by native local people who used traditional wooden mokoros as a form of transport, a modern version of this dugout canoe is an exceptionally relaxing way to explore the reed-lined waterways and discover different creatures you wouldn’t typically see from a vehicle or on foot.

The word “safari” conjures up images of open-air vehicles, vast open plains and herds of great animals.

A game drive is an iconic way in which to take a safari and get in touch with the wilds.

Our rangers agree – no two drives are ever the same.

Each outing is ripe with potential.

Sometimes it will be a pack of African wild dogs trotting on the hunt and at others, it may be a lioness drinking at a waterhole with her cubs.

It’s nature’s version of the lotto.

Nothing heightens the senses like walking through the African bushveld amongst nature’s untamed creatures.

Every sound is amplified, every movement is magnified, and the sheer size of large animals is put into perspective when on foot.

A walking safari provides an opportunity to experience the finer details of life in the bush – both big and small.
