The
exclusive Shinde Enclave is a ‘camp within a camp’,
offering the ultimate in
personal service and an indelible wilderness experience. Consisting of
three
luxurious tents built on raised teak decks, overlooking windswept
papyrus beds,
the area is home to many aquatic species including the elusive
sitatunga. With
a private dining and lounge area, it is the perfect retreat after a
day’s
activities. This intimate hideaway also offers guests the services of a
private
chef, waiter and housekeeper as well as their own professional guide
and vehicle.
Accommodation
The
enclave accommodates a maximum of 6 guests in 3 twin bedded mosquito
proofed
tents, each with en-suite bathroom, hot and cold running water and
flush toilet
(with a view). The luxury tents are within close proximity to the
private dining
area and viewing deck, affording an exclusive hideaway and perfect
location
from which a family or small group of friends can explore the Okavango
Delta.
Activities
Situated
in the Shinde Concession, the Shinde
Enclave offers a choice of both land and water activities available
throughout
the year. Activities include game drives in the morning and late
afternoon in

the
evening. Alternatively climb aboard a mokoro with a local
‘poler’ and enjoy the
exploration of the delta’s tranquil waterways. Powerboat
trips, walking trails
and fishing are other optional activities, all to be planned and taken
