Xigera Is The Ultimate Luxury Safari Lodge In The Heart Of The Moremi Game Reserve

Xigera (pronounced Keejera) is a luxury option located deep in the heart of Botswana's Moremi Game Reserve, surrounded by some of the best wildlife and birdlife. Xigera Safari Lodge has something for everyone in an area of Moremi that is remote and isolated as one can get. Permanent water all year round allows one to enjoy an unparalleled variety of activities, including walking safaris, mokoro expeditions, game drives and boating excursions, all in total privacy.

Access to the Xigera Safari Lodge is by light aircraft only; after landing at the Xigera airstrip, one is transferred to the establishment by a 4x4 vehicle. Watch the sunset and the birds gliding home to roost on a sunset cruise on the Xigera Lagoon. Observe the wildlife and unique Okavango Delta scenery from the comfort of a Land Rover or, for the adventurous, track animals on foot. Or take in the beautiful sunrise from your comfortable bed while sipping your morning tea or coffee.

Xigera Safari Lodge is the option for those that are seeking out the utmost in luxury and privacy, all the while being surrounded by the very best of what the Okavango Delta has to offer.

In season, catch and release fishing is available for those interested in possibly catching Tigerfish or bream.

Xigera Safari Lodge is one of the few properties to offer both land and water excursions year-round. Early morning or late afternoon game drives in open 4x4 vehicles are available. Unfortunately, no night drives due to Moremi Game Reserve National Park regulations. Walking adventures are also available; these come highly recommended by us here at Uyaphi.com; the only true way to appreciate the raw beauty of the African bush is to walk amongst it.

Birding excursions are nothing short of exceptional, with sightings that include; the greater swamp warbler, African pygmy goose, western banded snake eagle, pied kingfisher, lesser jacana and Pel's fishing owl, to mention only a tiny amount of what one can expect to view and photograph.
