Zarafa is a very exclusive tented lodge built overlooking the Zibalianja Lagoon in the Selinda Concession of the Greater Linyanti Region.
Zarafa is a premier Relais & Châteaux camp located in the wonderful Selinda Concession which has long been a favourite area of ours in Botswana. The style of the lodge is luxurious in an authentic ‘explorer’ style and whilst lavish and spacious there is still a strong connection to nature.

The Selinda Concession is very good for game viewing and makes a very good combination with many exclusive parts of the Okavango Delta.
