Mombo and Little Mombo, Botswana
Mombo Camp and Little Mombo are situated on Mombo Island, adjoining the northern tip of Chiefs Island, and are within the Moremi Game Reserve in northern Botswana. The camp offers abundant big game, arguably the best in Botswana. The highlight here is the concentrations of plains game and all the predators including the big cats! Leopard sightings are particularly good. Mombo Camp and Little Mombo have been completely rebuilt and the new camps opened in June 2000 on a new site 800m away from the old site. Mombo is built under the shade of some large shady trees and overlooks a wonderful floodplain that teems with game. Both camps jointly accommodate a total of 24 guests, but they are divided into two smaller camps a 6 bedder and an 18 bedder.
Both camps are raised off the ground. The guests rooms and the walkways that connect the rooms to the living areas, are up to 2m off the ground, allowing game to wander freely through the camp but at the same time allowing for guest safety. Facilities at Mombo Camp and Little Mombo include 9 and 3 large guest rooms respectively. These are superbly furnished, large luxury tents. All rooms are built in the same style. The canvas rooms are spacious and well appointed and have en-suite facilities under canvas and an additional outdoor shower for those who enjoy a shower under the stars. The dining room, pub and living area overlook the open plain in front of the camp and there is a plunge pool for relaxing in the heat of the day. Activities at Mombo include morning and afternoon game drives in open 4x4 Land Rovers. The game viewing in the area is excellent, and guests could see Lion, Leopard, large herds of Buffalo, Cheetah, Wild Dog, Elephant, Hyena, Giraffe, Wildebeest and Zebra. Access into this area is only by aircraft.
