Onguma Tree Top Camp

PLAN MY TRIP

Elevated and open to the sky, Onguma Tree Top Camp is a small, exclusive-use safari camp set in the trees overlooking a waterhole brimming with African wildlife.

The camp is built on wooden stilts among the tree tops making it an adult’s dream version of a tree-house. Accommodation consist of four thatched rooms that can sleep a total of eight persons. The walls are loosely built to let in outside breezes, and if need be the canvas can be let down for privacy. The en suite bathrooms feature an outdoor shower. A private veranda is the ideal spot to relax and enjoy the views of the active waterhole.

Onguma Game Reserve stretches across 84,015 acres of protected land. Plains game such as kudu, giraffe, eland, oryx, hartebeest, zebra, and impala roam freely, and predators including lion, cheetah, and leopard are frequently sighted. The reserve even boasts its own family of Black Rhino. During the Namibian summer months, when the rains have finally come, the park becomes a birdwatcher’s paradise. Over 300 bird species migrate to the wetlands and the once-dry riverbeds. The private reserve also borders Fischer’s Pan, offering easy access to Etosha, Namibia’s premier wildlife destination. Etosha not only houses miles of prime game-rich grasslands, it contains the world-famous Etosha Pan, a white-clay, salt pan so large it can be seen from space.

Game drives in Onguma are available in the morning, afternoon, and at night. Expert guides educate guests on the local flora and fauna as well as tracking the much-desired plains game and their predators. Organized game drives into Etosha are possible, and a morning drive to Namutoni is often followed by a safari through the park. A highlight of any trip to Onguma is the morning bush walk, led by an experienced armed ranger. Tracking animals by their “spoor” is really interesting and fun for all. Unique to Onguma is the afternoon black rhino drive, which allows visitors to experience Onguma’s unique effort in black rhino conservation. A particular highlight is gathering data from strategically placed camera traps positioned at various waterholes.

At the heart of Onguma Tree Top Camp is the main area. Guests can congregate with their friends and family around a big table, a cozy sitting area, or the open-plan kitchen. The camp is built close to one of the reserve’s largest waterholes. While the hide-like nature of the camp, the boma fires at night, and the elevated position make for the experience of a lifetime.
