Wow. A beautiful and elegant camp for our first safari trip. Their level of service is special - among the best of any resort we've ever visited (while remaining uniquely African). The rooms were beautifully appointed and dining was excellent as well. We went on two sunset safari cruises on the Chobe and had a fantastic time with our ranger,... More

This place is a beautiful spa, with fabulous accommodation, a lovely pool, and great food. It has more of a hotel feel about it than the other camps we stayed at. There were welcome drinks on offer every time you returned to base, and friendly staff to serve drinks and food.

Everything was very special. The staff are so kind,helpful and genuinely anxious to do everything to make the visit memorable.The lodge being on the river meant it was great to enjoy both land and river game drives and we could have no better guide than our ranger Mr Nixzn who was great company and vastly knowledgeable. The food was first... More

This is a vewry special property in a special Country of Botswana. From the very warm welocme to the oustanding servcice from all staff it is impossible to fault. The food is first class, cooked freshly to order and available throughout the day. The game drives were very special, the highlight being a pride of 8 lions on Friday morning.... More

This was the second stop on our first ever safari so I may not be speaking from a position of knowledge but when we returned from our evening game drive to a hot bubbly bath and chilled bottle of bubbly in our room we were blown away. We were celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary so that also made the trip... More

Not Really a Game Lodge but a Spa type Resort that also offers Game Drives and River Cruises/Trips. To make full use of the facilities you need at least 2-3 nights here and enjoy the luxury touches and accommodation. Chobe is basically Elephants and Hippos with Buffalo's and Impala, in fact the national park is reputed to have over 60,000... More

My wife and I were on our honeymoon and had just spent 2 days in Vic Falls. In the essense of time we decided to do our safari in Chobe rather than Kruger. I could not have made a better decision. Upon arrival we were greeted with moist towels to wipe our hands and just refresh ourselves from the drive... More

It was our third Lodge, after doing a mobile safari and we were totally excited! The rooms/chalets were excellent, with all necessities and totally clean. Despite all was included in the price, the quality of food and drinks were excellent, no cheap stuff. Minibar with unlimited drinks were included as well. Nevertheless the best for us wa the free-of-charge laundry... More
