Ker & Downey Okuti camp sits on the banks of the Maunachira River which flows through Xakanaxa Lagoon. This is in the Moremi Game Reserve of the Okavango Delta. The river has abundant bird life, fish, and sandy river banks. An oasis of serenity and peacefulness. It has been awarded five star status by Botswana Tourism Board and Eco Tourism Certified.
A wide variety of Okavango wildlife wander along the riverbanks in front of the camp. The Xakanaxa region remains one of Moremi Game Reserve’s best year round wildlife hotspots. This makes it ideal for repeat and first time visitors to Botswana.
The main area consists of a dining room, bar, seating area, and a swimming pool. There is an open deck for evenings around the campfire.
