About Lagoon Camp

  • Close Panel 

Lagoon Camp lies on the shady banks of the Kwando River among tall and ancient African ebony and marula trees, under the watchful gaze of the resident hippos.  It has one of the most beautiful settings of any safari camp.

Lagoon Camp accommodates 16 guests in 8 twin-bedded luxury safari-style tents. Each tent looks out over the water and has private en-suite facilities, including 24 hour hot and cold running water, open-air showers, flush toilets and modern amenities. The shady environment of the camp hosts a great variety of birds and squirrels that visit daily. A family of hippo and an elephant or three are regularly sighted from the tents. This contributes to the relaxed calm that prevails at Lagoon Camp. There is a guest pool in which to cool off during the hot months.

Boat cruises along the Kwando River provide excellent opportunities for birding. There is also specialist fly fishing and spinner fishing on offer for tiger fish and bream. Seasonal walks are also available.

Lagoon Camp's excellent staff are there to look after you quietly and efficiently, so as to ensure a relaxing, peaceful stay.

Lagoon Camp will be closed for a rebuild from 19th November 2010 till 28th February 2011.

Pricing guidelines for Botswana

  • Open Panel 

We hope the following will give you a rough idea of costs. These are quoted per person based on twin share for two people, without international flights but including internal flights. We’ve used good standard accommodation throughout. There are nearly always ways to spend more money than we’ve suggested (!), but these prices show a good and realistic range for each type of trip.

International flights will add from about £700 to £1000 depending on the season and route (unless the airlines have special offers). Botswana combines well with Zambia and South Africa.

For a specific personal quote based on any tailor made itinerary you have in mind, please contact us and we’ll be happy to help you.
