Known to local staff as "Mmadikampa," meaning "Mother of all Camps," Wilderness Mombo has recently been recognized by 500,000 Condé Nast Traveler readers who awarded it the prestigious 2024 Readers' Choice Award for Best Resort in Africa – Rest of Africa category.

Extraordinary Wildlife Encounters 

What truly sets Wilderness Mombo apart is its location in one of Africa's most wildlife-rich regions. The area boasts an exceptionally high density of animals, including: zebras, giraffes, large hers of red lechwe, impalas, buffalos, elephants, wild dogs, lions, and beyond. Visitors are consistently amazed by the natural spectacles that unfold before their eyes in this pristine environment.  

 

Unforgettable Experiences 

Your stay at Wilderness Mombo offers various ways to experience the magnificence of the Okavango Delta:

Commitment to Conservation 

Wilderness Mombo's legacy extends beyond luxury accommodations. The area was once a prime hunting ground where wildlife was scarce and skittish. Today, thanks to an immersive, low-impact approach to tourism, the landscape has transformed into a thriving ecosystem where animals roam freely without disturbance. The camp is also entirely solar-powered and adheres to strict environmental guidelines, ensuring that luxury doesn't come at the expense of the planet.
