Zarafa Camp
As the heat of the day dissipates and the dust of the plains settles, a beautiful peace descends around Zarafa. A Verreaux’s eagle-owl calls softly in the canopy of a giant ebony tree and the hippos’ mocking laughter echoes across the water.

This is where Dereck and Beverly Joubert lay their weary heads many years ago. The tranquility they found under a magnificent ebony tree became the focal point of Zarafa. “Zarafa,” is Arabic for “the beloved one”. The camp’s beautiful design and “green” construction of just four magnificent tented villas and a spectacular main area take advantage of views over the lagoon, reflecting the desire for safari exclusivity and privacy. Zarafa is a safari camp like no other, and one that you will quickly fall in love with, wanting to return to, time and again.

Zarafa Camp is an intimate, four room exquisite tented camp located on the on the private 130 000 hectare Selinda Reserve in northern Botswana, an area linking the Okavango Delta and the Chobe/Savute corridors. Few camps rival the location of this little gem, Botswana’s first Relais & Chateaux property. Overlooking the crystal waters of Zibadianja Lagoon, the source of the famous Savute Channel, every area of camp has a magnificent view. The lagoon is also the water source for a tremendous population of wildlife – dry season sightings boast buffalo and elephant by the hundreds.
Zarafa Camp is the brainchild of the founders of Great Plains Conservation, who pooled their collective experience on safari to create what they deemed to be the best and most environmentally innovative camp. As a consequence, Zarafa may in fact be the “greenest” luxury safari camp on the continent. Only recycled hardwoods and canvas were used in the construction and all the camp’s electricity comes from its solar farm while ‘bio gas’ plants recycle waste into usable cooking gas.
