Okavango Horse Safaris operates out of a 90,000 hectare unfenced private concession in the south west of the Okavango Delta. It's a true wilderness area where you will be fully immersed in nature and you won't see another tourist for your entire stay. The area is characterised by the Xudum river system, wide open floodplains and beautiful forests. It's a wild, diverse area and brilliant riding country, and with only 6 tents and a maximum of 8 guests on any ride, safaris don't get more exclusive.

We also offer excellent non riding safaris if you'd rather stick to two legs or a game drive vehicle. Unlike in game reserves we're able to walk, game drive, night drive, boat and mokoro meaning that non riders won't be confined to a vehicle and riders have plenty of other activities to choose from as well. This makes for a varied, active safari with plenty of different options to immerse yourselves in the wilderness. Of course you can always simply enjoy our lovely camp, whether that be reading in the living area whilst watching game wander by, or taking a swim in our pool, there are no bad options!

With Okavango Horse Safaris you'll experience breathtaking wildlife and scenery, extremely knowledgable guides and staff, the most comfortable bush accommodation, all backed up by an exceptional safety record and the best safari horses in the business.

Our horses are exceptionally well looked after and schooled, their happiness, health and wellbeing is the foundation upon which our safaris are built.

Beyond all of our expectations. The Trip of a Lifetime with a very professional AND fun staff. We did a great deal of research and spoke to many people who had been in other camps and other locations. I am confident that if you are looking for an area where you will not see other tourists and lots and lots of animals, in a very, very comfortable out in the boondocks environment, this is the place!

Suzanne Z

An incredible trip, the experiences can hardly be described in words. All the people at OHS were incredibly friendly, you experience pure nature and get very close to the animals. The food is excellent and the well-being of the guests always comes first. We were guided competently and safely on the riding safaris and we were also offered a lot on the game drives. The horses are very well cared for and great to ride. The accommodation offers luxury and is very clean. Amazing!!
