Hunda Island, on which Tubu Tree is situated on the western side, is known for its concentrations of game and offers both spectacular wildlife viewing on land, as well as tranquil adventures on the water. This combination of activities makes time spent at Tubu Tree a complete Delta experience.
Wildlife: sightings around Tubu Tree includes elephant, lion, Burchell's zebra, red lechwe, southern giraffe, tsessebe, and blue wildebeest on the floodplains. Kudu, impala, bushbuck, and leopard are usually seen in the forested areas. The variety of birdlife is impressive, with dry-land species seen on the larger islands, and a multitude of wetland birds seen on the floodplains and waterways.
Accommodation: as its name indicates, this eight-tented traditional-style camp is set into the tree canopy on elevated wooden walkways, with picturesque views over the surrounding floodplains. The family unit has two adjoining tents, separate bathrooms and a shared lounge. The main area’s famous bar is shaded under the spreading boughs of a marula tree and the pool deck maximises the vista across the ever-changing floodplains. The Tubu Star Bed offers a romantic experience under the magnificent African sky.
Purpose: Tubu Tree is a member the Tubu Joint Management Committee, and is intimately involved in projects that support sustainable conservation and community upliftment including assisting the local school with many of its requirements.
Tubu Tree is set on Hunda Island in the Okavango Delta's Jao Reserve.
