Xigera Safari Lodge

Set within the world-renowned Moremi Game Reserve, Xigera Safari Lodge enjoys private access to a pristine 4,500-hectare wetland sanctuary in the very heart of the Okavango Delta.

Perfectly positioned along one of the Delta’s vital waterways, the lodge is enveloped by enchanting papyrus swamps and lush, wooded islands, and is famed for its exceptional population of the elusive sitatunga antelope.

This wildlife-rich region offers extraordinary mammal encounters, from red lechwe and spotted-necked otter to elephant, buffalo, reedbuck and tsessebe. Apex predators such as lion, spotted hyaena and leopard roam freely here, and guests may even be rewarded with thrilling, close-range sightings as lions or leopards cross the footbridge linking Xigera to the neighbouring island.

A paradise for bird enthusiasts, the concession lies within an International Birding Area (IBA) and hosts a remarkable array of Okavango endemics.

Highlights include Pel’s Fishing-Owl, African Skimmer, Brown Firefinch, Greater Swamp Warbler, Wattled Crane, African Pygmy Goose and Lesser Jacana — making every moment at Xigera a celebration of Africa’s wild beauty.
