A wild dining experience unlike any other
A culinary adventure
At the heart of Xigera lies The Boma, Blacksmith Conrad Hicks’ totemic sculpture Structure of Self. This is our centrepiece of al fresco dining where you can savour the vibrant flavours of Africa while soaking up unforgettable Okavango views from the terrace.
From bush breakfasts and wild picnics to ‘feet in the water’ sundowners, memorable wild dining experiences are waiting to be discovered in the bush…
Curate your dining experience
As with so much of Xigera, we let you create and curate your own dining experience. Our talented chefs have an ‘anything, any time’ approach, allowing you to choose what you would like to eat, when you would like to enjoy it, and where you would prefer to dine. Whether it’s a bush breakfast or a picnic on your private deck, our chefs are always happy to oblige. They say the Swiss invented the clocks, but Africa owns the time. At Xigera, that time is yours to savour.
Dine beneath the stars
This elegant outdoor wild dining area opens up onto an expansive deck area, connected to our open-air bush-style fire pit where guests enjoy after-dinner drinks and an evening sharing stories and gazing up at the majestic southern stars.
The flavours of Africa
The menu from our talented chefs changes each day, but takes inspiration from authentic African ingredients and local traditions.
A culinary journey
While there is no shortage of culinary indulgence, there is an equal focus on lighter health-focused plates, including flavour-packed vegetarian and vegan dishes.
