InventTour - Guma Lagoon Camp

Guma Lagoon Camp is situated along the banks of the Guma Lagoon on the north western side of the Okavango Delta in Botswana.

Guma offers both self-catering and full board accommodation, which are provided in spacious canvas chalets, all en suite and located on the edge of the lagoon, each with its own private view.

The self-catering option provides a fully equipped kitchen with all utensils, crockery and fridge/ freezer.

For the full board option a set menu offers an array of various dishes which are served on the deck overlooking the lagoon.

When wakening in the morning with the sunrise over the lagoon streaming into your chalet, wander down to the main area and enjoy a complimentary cup of tea or coffee served on the deck.

Alternatively there are 7 campsites under shady trees with private ablutions. Campers have access to the self-catering kitchen, and are also most welcome to dine in the main restaurant.

Dinner needs to be pre-ordered each morning as all meals are freshly prepared. Vegetarians and children are catered for.

Guma Lagoon Camp is truly a fishermans paradise and bird watchers haven. With the abundance of fish species in the Okavango Panhandle, the camp is the perfect area for spin or fly-fishing, and actively supports a catch-and-release policy for all fish species.

For those who want to fish the mighty Okavango River, experienced local guides will accompany you on a 40-minute boat ride from camp that passes through a narrow meandering network of channels.

The Guma area comprises many small lagoons, countless little palm fringed islands, narrow winding waterways amongst dense papyrus and reeds and the large Guma Lagoon itself.

Adventurous safari experiences not to be missed are Guma Lagoon Camp’s choice of day trips or overnight camping mokoro trails that take you into the heart of the Okavango.

You will be poled through the tranquil channels that link the extensive flood plain system to the main river. Water lily beds, palm islands and papyrus stands abound making for the most scenic of experiences.

There is always a chance of seeing large herds of red lechwe bounding through the water and passing elephants feeding amongst the lush wetland vegetation.
