Shinde

Shinde, an iconic camp rebuilt in 2020, is nestled on a lush palm island in the heart of the northern Okavango Delta. It offers a luxurious safari experience with a touch of historical charm, blending elegant, classic, and opulent "Out of Africa" decor with modern comforts. The camp's unique "treehouse style" main area, comprising lounges, dining areas, and a fire deck, provides breathtaking views over a permanent lagoon teeming with animal and birdlife. Courtesy of its prime location on a private concession, Shinde offers both land and water activities year-round. Guests can explore the delta by motorboat or traditional mokoro, embark on game drives and night drives, or enjoy guided walks and fishing excursions. The camp provides a "worldly" and sophisticated safari experience, ensuring every possible comfort from full solar electricity and fans to yoga mats and hair dryers in each tent.
