GOMOTI PLAINS

Glorious Gomoti Plains

Tucked beneath the shade of towering acacia trees on the edge of the Gomoti River system, Gomoti Plains Camp offers a classic safari experience in one of Botswana’s most rewarding wildlife areas. Located on a private community-run concession just south of the Moremi Game Reserve, the camp is named after the riverine tree that thrives along the Delta’s floodplains, symbolizing the camp’s deep connection to the land and its people.

Combining traditional safari elegance with sustainable design, Gomoti Plains delivers outstanding wildlife encounters, personalized service, and a strong commitment to conservation and community empowerment.

Accommodations

The camp features 10 luxury tents, including two family units, all raised on wooden platforms to maximize views over the surrounding plains and floodplains. Each canvas suite is designed with a balance of rustic charm and modern comfort, featuring en-suite bathrooms with indoor and outdoor showers, flush toilets, and hot running water.

Interiors are decorated in a soft, neutral palette with locally crafted furnishings and rich textiles, creating an inviting space to relax between safari activities. Large decks with comfortable seating allow guests to soak in the views and the sounds of the bush.
