Jumbo Junction, located in the open system conservation areas of the Northern Okavango Delta, serves as one of the most accessible gateways to this remarkable region. Situated on the Mapula Concession or the Okavango Sekwana Concession, the lodge lies in the north of the Okavango Delta, adjacent to the renowned Duba Plains and Vumbura Plains concessions. Spanning a vast 220,000 acres, this conservancy encompasses the upper reaches of the Selinda Spillway, connecting the Okavango Delta and the Linyanti River. Over the years, it has become home to a selection of top-notch new Delta safari camps.
 

Jumbo Junction, along with its new prized addition Bontsintsi Horse Safaris, offers an unforgetaable safari experience for nature enthusiasts and adventure seekers. Positioned just 30km from the small town of Seronga on a peninsula bordering the Okavango Delta, the camp provides breathtaking views of several beautiful delta islands. With year-round activities to indulge in, Jumbo Junction is a rare place where rural communities coexist harmoniously with wildlife. Witnessing cattle roam freely alongside majestic wild game is a remarkable daily occurrence at Jumbo Junction.
 

Featuring six raised tented units and two chalets, Jumbo Junction boasts a delightful entertainment and dining area overlooking the floodplains, providing the perfect vantage point for observing golden sunrises. The nearby jetty facilitates easy access to the Delta and various water-based activities, making it an ideal basecamp for unforgettable adventures.

Mokoro Ride
A mokoro activity is an iconic Okavango Delta activity, you will be guided by your specialist guide poler into shallow waters where a boat cannot reach. Glide silently through the reeds and water lily “fields” and observe the wonderful aquatic flora and fauna, the pods of hippos wallowing in the channels and other game along the water’s edge.

Boat Safaris
Boating through the water channels will provide access to the concession for game drives during the wet season or just enjoy a leisurely boat trip down the water channels. Observe the spectacular aquatic birdlife, especially during the months of August and September. Sip on a sundowner while you drift down the channel whilst enjoying the scenery and game sightings.

Guided Walks
This is a unique way to discover the bush. Our experienced, armed guide will take you on a leisurely walk where time is spent observing the smaller details in the bush that one would normally miss on a game drive. Bush walks are dependant on the weather and the terrain at the time.

Village Tour
A visit to the local village affords you the rare opportunity to experience the cultural richness of the communities living in the Okavango Delta. Experience daily life, from baking, tool making, fishing, the school and farming.

Helicopter Scenic Flight
Don't miss out on the incredible opportunity of our scenic/photography flights, available at an extra cost. Moments after departing you’ll enjoy the breath-taking views seen only from a helicopter. Experience the crystal-clear water channels meandering their way through lagoons, while journeying deep into the lush green flood plains to explore the abundant wildlife of the Okavango Delta region. We take the doors off for an even better photographic experience while flying over some of the most remote, uninhabited, and wild areas of the Okavango Delta. Scenic flights are conducted any time of day, with keen photographers usually preferring the early morning or late afternoon, while some guests prefer flying during the siesta period in order not to miss other camp activities. We have a designated landing area on the outside, northern edge of the camp, and we offer scenic chopper flights with Helicopter Horizons. Our guides have been briefed on the safety protocols of approaching the helicopter.
