Katavi Wildlife Lodge

Katavi Wildlife Lodge

Katavi

Nestled on the outskirts of the Katisunga plain, Katavi Wildlife Camp seamlessly blends into the fringes of the surrounding woodland, offering one of the most spectacular vistas in the park. Animals, both predators and their prey, must parade past the camp on their daily commute to drink in the nearby Katuma River - making this the perfect observation point for some of the most dramatic wildlife encounters.

Accommodation is made up of six spacious Meru-style mosquito-proof tents, which all offer direct and picturesque views of the plain, and each tent is constructed on an elevated wooden platform, providing shade from the noonday sun, and with a classic thatched roof. All tents are equipped with private en-suite facilities, and boast an expansive veranda complete with a comfortable hammock and seating area. There are 2 additional family tents plus a honeymoon tent.

Game drives don't need to go far, as the wildlife is in such great abundance close to the camp and whether from the veranda of your tent, on a game drive or from the elevated viewing lounge, you'll have the privilege of witnessing predators alongside the plains game during daylight hours. And in the evenings, brace yourself for the spectacle of predators in pursuit as the game retreats to the safety of the trees.

Meals are served in a comfortable and welcoming main lodge which also has a cosy bar and viewing deck.

To see how to combine this lodge on a safari circuit, visit our Safaris page and the Southern Circuit National Park pages.

How our Tent Ratings work

These are based on our personal experience of the hotel, camp or lodge and should not be compared against ratings you find elsewhere. We intend to guide you and don’t be put off by a low tent rating as some of our favourites fall into the 2 and 3-tent categories.​

It is also important to bear in mind that standards vary from country to country and a 4-tent hotel in South Africa cannot be compared with a 4-tent hotel in another part of the world. 

To summarise our grading system, we have considered the following.
