Is the Wilderness Vumbura Plains for Me?
Located in the 60,000-hectare Kwedi Concession within the northern Okavango Delta, Wilderness Vumbura Plains is a contemporary retreat that blends modernist architecture with the surrounding wilderness.
Fourteen light-filled suites are split between two satellite camps, each elevated on wooden decks to offer views across the floodplains. Every suite features floor-to-ceiling glass, a private plunge pool, and an outdoor sala, alongside indoor and outdoor showers. The shared areas offer a large lounge and dining space, as well as a fire pit for evening storytelling under the stars.
Safari activities provide a rare balance of land and water adventures, including day and night game drives, motorboat trips, and traditional mokoro excursions. You can also explore the diverse habitats on guided walks or enjoy seasonal catch-and-release fishing. For those seeking relaxation, in-room massage treatments are available to enjoy in the privacy of your suite.
INSIDER’S TIP: Take advantage of the Olympus spotting scope and binoculars provided in your room for detailed views of the diverse birdlife. If you are lucky, you may even spot the rare sable antelope or a pack of wild dogs moving across the plains.
