The lodge is typically African, accommodating sixteen guests in large twin-bedded Meru tents, each with en-suite bathroom facilities and each with its own balcony overlooking the Chobe River. The lodge offers an all Africa experience in one of the world’s finest wetland areas with spectacular game and bird viewing and the opportunity to land a mighty Tigerfish. All tents overlook the river with the main lodge buildings being built over the river and consisting of a lounge and bar with a separate dining room, all under thatch and situated under large shady trees. |

Activities include guided walks on the island, which are very interesting as there is a varied ecology and the villages offer an insight into traditional African life. From the top of an ancient Baobab tree one can view the meeting place of the four countries. |

Bird watching is a year round pleasure with over 400 recorded species and a combination of water birds and good dry land birds on the island. It is an excellent place to see all the summer migrants from September through to March. Alternatively become adventurous and go white water canoeing on the Chobe rapids opposite the Lodge. This is dependant upon the level of the river and the expertise of the canoeist. |
