A story of remarkable renewal
Xigera is our love letter to the magic of the African bush.
Xigera Safari Lodge
Okavango Delta, Botswana
Transformed by Africa's life-enhancing beauty
The story of Xigera Safari Lodge is one of renewal. Of rebirth and family legacy, and of the pioneering spirit that drives us to seek out Africa’s wild spaces. The same spirit that inspired this remarkable reimagining, perhaps a complete reinvention, of an Okavango Delta safari.
This is Xigera (pronounced ‘kee-jera’), named for the Pied Kingfisher that makes its home amid the watery channels of Botswana’s Moremi Game Reserve.
Every aspect is handcrafted to beguile our guests’ senses and stir their souls – from the evocative interiors to one-of-a-kind encounters.
But Xigera is equally a line in the sand. A raising of the bar. A bold statement in the realm of luxury safaris, and an Okavango Delta safari experience like no other.

The power of passion
"Welcome to The Chesterfield Mayfair, where it has been my honour to lead the team as General Manager for the past seven years. I believe that Mayfair is a village within our great city of London, and the spirit of local community cannot be matched elsewhere in the capital.
We are surrounded by some of the most famous streets in London, including Oxford Street, Park Lane and Bond Street. We have many green spaces on our doorstep, from Berkeley Square to Green Park, and we are spoiled for choice with the many restaurants and bars around us – from high-end to hidden gems and traditional pubs.
We are proud of the exceptional experiences we have carefully curated over the years. Our whimsical Sweetshop Afternoon Tea is a treat for adults and children alike, while our Terrace Bar is the heart of the hotel, filled with live music every evening.
As a team, we have worked hard to remove single-use plastics, reduce food waste, and focus on renewable energy sources. Each year, our team members take two paid volunteer days supporting local charities such as The Springboard Charity and Action Against Hunger.
We are a passionate and dedicated team who are committed to delivering the very best experience for our guests. I am proud to have worked for The Red Carnation Hotel Collection for the past 15 years, and I look forward to welcoming many more guests to our beautiful hotel in the future."
- Adam Lake, General Manager
