A true landmark in the heart of one of the world's most spectacular wilderness area - Twyfelfontein in Damaraland, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is home to one of the most extensive collections of rock art engravings in Southern Africa. The lodge is run in partnership with the community and donates some of the profits to help support local community projects.

This is the only permanent game lodge on the banks of the Chobe River in the famous Chobe National Park. It’s a great base for exploring the park, although this is a larger lodge you have plenty of space to relax and enjoy your surroundings. The deck is a good place to relax and watch the procession of wildlife as it passes by, it’s like a safari without leaving your lodge. The rooms are all air-conditioned and also have ceiling fans, a minibar, an en-suite bathroom and a terrace. There is a swimming pool, gym and spa treatments can be organised with the in-house beautician. Activities include morning and afternoon game drives, bird watching and boat trips. Unlike any other water-based activity in Botswana, the game viewing while on a river safari in Chobe is unsurpassed. Elephants line the water’s edge, hippos congregate in lagoons, hundreds of antelope and giraffes make their way to the water and sightings of predators along the riverbanks are common. The riverboats are designed to ensure everyone can take in the magnificent views in complete comfort from anywhere on the boat. Owing to the flexibility in seating arrangements and the flat deck, the boats are ideal for keen wildlife photographers, with ample space for equipment and the freedom to photograph from any angle.

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.
