The Lodge
Savute Safari Lodge
Savute Safari Lodge takes just 24 guests, which keeps it private and relaxed. It lies in the Savute area of Chobe National Park, where the resident elephants make their way to the Channel to drink, bathe and play.
There are eleven thatched chalets of local timber and one family chalet with two bedrooms, furnished in calm, natural tones. Each has a large private deck and a combined bedroom and lounge. The shaded viewing deck, the outdoor dining area and the pool all look out over the passing wildlife.
Game drives in open 4x4 vehicles explore the Savute area, often taking in the Savute Marsh and the old San rock paintings at the Gubatsa Hills. In the rains a large zebra migration passes through, followed by predators.
