We care
At Hotel d’Angleterre, we are committed to our community and to supporting local charities such as the Make a Wish Foundation. In collaboration with the UNHCR Refugee Food Festival, we invite talented refugee chefs to promote their food culture and showcase their cuisine in our kitchen, with the profits donated to charity.
Our Guides
With their years of experience our local safari guides are each experts in their field, and are passionate about sharing the wonders of the Okavango Delta with our guests.
Wild beauty
From Motlalepula, our beloved lodge leopard, to our lioness Sisilia and her four cubs, we are privileged that these animals - beautifully caught on camera by Mike Myers and his wonderful team of guides - call the Delta their home...
A birder’s paradise
Xigera’s exceptional location on the fringes of the Moremi Game Reserve delivers some of the best birding Botswana has to offer, with more than 500 species recorded.
As the elephants roam
Elephants are arguably the stars of the show. Northern Botswana is home to the world’s largest population of Loxodonta Africana, and at last count more than 130 000 wild elephant still roamed free here.
On mokoro and motorboat excursions look out for the area’s smaller inhabitants, like the tiny mottled frogs that cling to delicate papyrus reeds. Stealthy crocodiles and large pods of hippo shy away from attention in the deeper channels and lagoons.
Supporting the herds
The lush grasslands and verdant islands also support large herds of antelope, including kudu, wildebeest and the semi-aquatic red lechwe. On your safari excursions from Xigera, look forward to sightings of lions, cheetahs and leopards. Packs of endangered African wild dog are found here too, as are the ever-resourceful spotted hyena.
The Okavango Delta is nothing short of a wilderness wonderland, delivering both unforgettable landscapes and once-in-a-lifetime wildlife encounters.
