OKAVANGO DELTA

African Horseback Safaris - Macatoo Camp

Situated in the south-west of the Delta, our concession provides us with varied and stunning scenery in which to ride. More than 380 species of bird have made their home in the Delta and large mammals are plentiful.

To get to the lodge, you will need to fly from Maun by light aircraft to the landing strip. From there you will be transferred by road to the lodge.

8 large and airy tents that blend seamlessly into their natural surroundings while still providing a luxurious, but authentic bush haven in which to relax. Each tent is set on its own large, raised platform, offering panoramic views of a flood plain that can be enjoyed from the bed or deck.

The honeymoon tent celebrating any special occasion, has an additional deck for private dining as well as a raised double tub bath offering a view of the floodplain.

The ‘family and friends suite' comprises two tents, directly linked by a raised walkway and viewing deck above ground, which provides direct, easy access for parents, children
Our swimming pool deck has a number of sun beds on which guests can read, relax and soak up the sun.

Well-lit pathways link all our communal mess tent and dining deck, pool and guest accommodation.

A fire burns in front of the mess tent, whatever the time of year, around which we gather to eat under the sun and stars, drink fresh coffee and fine wines and swap stories of the day.

A short drive away, and at the top of a long, sturdy ladder is our magical tree platform where we enjoy lunches, drinks and even the occasional sleepover under the African night sky.
Horse back safari
Macatoo’s string of horses are as well looked after as their guests. Each horse – they are all boys – is recognised and appreciated for his unique ability and personality and every effort is made to match him with the most suitable rider. With nearly 50 horses in the barn, all schooled and well-mannered, we are able to ensure every one is fully fit and rested with downtime out in the paddocks to give our guests the best possible ride.
Be prepared to spend up to six hours a day in the saddle. You will need to feel confident about keeping up with the group, capable of riding at all paces, rising to the trot and controlling your horse at the canter. You may be required to gallop out of trouble, so regrettably we cannot take novice riders. It is your responsibility to provide your own properly fitted hard hat or safety helmet.
