Accommodation

TSARO ELEPHANT LODGE
Tsaro Elephant Lodge is built on the banks of the Khwai river, the northernmost outlet of the Okavango Delta, on the edge of Moremi Wildlife Reserve. Nearby Khwai village is home to the Bushman people who have hunted and gathered here for uncounted centuries, living always in harmony with the magnificent natural world surrounding them.
From here guests can discover the magic of the marshes, the plains, lagoons and mopane forests, home to some of the last great wildlife concentrations left in Africa. Nestling in a grove of sycamore, fig, leadwood and knobthom trees, the lodge has a thatched common area encompassing the bar, verandah, lounge, curio shop, swimming pool and the dining area which overlooks a small nearby water-hole. Set discretely off the dining area is the reed boma where guests can enjoy after-dinner coffee and liqueurs by the campfire. The view from the verandah is across the spacious lawn to the Khwai river hiding in a reed fringe which provides shelter for the letchwe antelope that often graze on the lawn.

The lodge accommodates a maximum of 16 guests in 8 twin-bedded thatched bungalows placed in a semicircle adjacent to the main building and fronting onto the lawn. Each bungalow has en-suite facilities, fans and a private patio, and is tastefully decorated in ethnic style complemented by the heavy teak furnishings.
Safari Activities Game drives in open 4x4 safari vehicles both in the Moremi Wildlife Reserve and the adjoining Khwai wilderness area, offering unrivaled viewing of the big game of Africa which makes this region justly famous- Wilderness walks along the Khwai river are also on offer, with excellent bird-watching and the chance of wildlife encounters on foot.

Activities are accompanied by our experienced naturalist guides, all of whom hold professional guides licences.

SAVUTE SAFARI LODGE
In the heart of Botswana's Chobe National Park lies a dynamic wilderness, a sweeping expanse of savannah brooded over by seven rocky outcrops that guard a relic marsh and the dry channel that was once its lifeline. Mysterious wet and dry cycles mould this landscape and dictate the nature of its wild inhabitants- This is Savute and for the moment the channel is dry.

Savute Safari Lodge peers out from ancient camelthom trees on the shore of the channel. The lounge, library and cocktail bar are situated in the exquisite thatch and timber main building, where an upstairs viewing deck allows Savute's enchanting sunsets to mesmerise guests. A large fireplace downstairs is equally inviting on winter nights, while the delicious aroma of dinner and the prospect of candlelit dining beckons guests to the elegant dining-room. The lodge also boasts a swimming pool and shaded viewing deck, both of which overlook the channel, and where afternoon tea is served and guests can sit around the camptire after dinner.

Twelve tastefully furnished twin-bedded luxury wood and thatch safari suites accommodating a maximum of 24 guests. The unique design of the suites with their spacious interior and large, glass sliding doors sets the lodge apart from typical safari accommodation. Private viewing decks and en-suite facilities combine luxury and comfort with a classic wilderness experience. Safari Activities Daily game drives in open 4x4 safari vehicles in the Savute area of the Chobe National Park, including the Savute Marsh and a visit to Gubatsa Hills and ancient San rock paintings.

CHOBE SAVANNAH LODGE
In the northern extremity of the Chobe National Park, on the Namibian side of the Chobe River, is an expanse of vast floodplains and savannah called the Puku Flats- The area, so called because of the rare Puku, an antelope of similar size and stature to an Impala (and found only in the Chobe area of Botswana), is renowned for its large herds of buffalo and elephant, which come to the rivers edge to drink and graze.

Chobe Savanna Lodge peers west out across the vast Puku flats. The lounge, library, cocktail bar and dining room are situated in the imposing main building, made from exquisite thatch and timber balustrades, which command superb views over the Chobe River and beyond- Furniture, sourced from as far as Asia and the Americas, blends with the African inspired interiors creating a feel in tune with the savannah environment.

The suites are also air-conditioned and have a fully stocked complimentary bar to make guests stay as comfortable as possible.
