A scenic hour and a half drive from Botswana’s safari town of Maun brings guests to Lazy River, the Okavango Delta base camp of Shangana Safaris. Overlooking hippo-filled lagoons along the Santantadibe River, the camp provides a peaceful starting point for exploring the waterways and islands of the Delta on guided mokoro safaris.
Lazy River is located close to several mokoro launch areas and access to the waterways and islands of the Okavango Delta. From here guests can explore the channels of the Delta on guided mokoro excursions ranging from relaxed day trips to longer journeys deeper into the wilderness.
Lazy River Camp provides a comfortable base between days exploring the Okavango Delta. The main area overlooks the lagoon and includes a dining space, small bar (in which you may place your own drinks) and lounge where guests can relax after returning from mokoro trips and Delta excursions.
Located just outside the wildlife areas of the Okavango Delta, Lazy River Camp enjoys sweeping views over classic Delta landscapes. Herds of elephants are frequent visitors to the surrounding floodplains, while the resident hippos in the lagoon ensure that the sounds of the Okavango are never far away.
