Seba is the ideal family safari destination in the Okavango - a place where learning is so much fun that youngsters may not even realise that the Delta has been transformed into the most wonderful classroom. Seba guides delight in sharing their knowledge and introducing children to the magic of wild Africa.
Access the bush by game drive, mokoro or guided walks, or join your children for a bush cooking or photography lesson. Seba runs on various green operating systems, including 100% solar, in order to ensure as light an environmental footprint as possible.
The fully inclusive rates are not just about the level of accommodation or the thread count of the linen. They encompass elements that cannot be counted or measured, such as exclusive access to vast tracts of Africa’s best wildlife areas, creating a unique sense of seclusion, comfort, privacy and space. In turn, your presence helps in the conservation of all these iconic areas. Our dedicated team look forward to designing a journey that suits your budget and bucket list desires.
