Botswana

Savute Safari Lodge

PLAN MY TRIP

Situated next to the fickle and unpredictable Savute Channel in Chobe National Park, Savute Safari Lodge offers a relaxing, luxury experience.

Accommodations at the lodge consist of eleven thatched chalets raised on expansive private decks for a maximum of twenty-four guests. Each chalet comes with twin beds, but there is one family chalet with two double bedrooms. Elegantly furnished in neutral tones that complement its surroundings, each chalet features an en suite bathroom with a shower, hand basin, and toilet. Other amenities include fans, tea and coffee facilities, hair dryer, bathrobes, flashlight, umbrella, in-room safe, and 220V plug points. The rooms also have a battery-operated reading light, desk light, and bathroom light to illuminate the dark nights.

The lodge is located in the western section of Chobe National Park where the Savute Channel flows, known for generations as the “Stolen River,” for its unpredictable decades-long cycle of drought and flooding. Since its discovery by David Livingstone in 1851, the river has experienced seemingly random periods of drought, unconnected to the region’s amount of rainfall. For now, the river flows and provides a breathtaking panorama for the guests at Savute Safari Lodge. Chobe is known for its high density of elephants as well as the second-largest summer zebra migration in Africa. Of course, the migration is followed by large numbers of predators including lions, cheetahs, leopards, hyenas, and the rarer African wild dogs.

Daily games drives are conducted in open land cruisers led by expert guides and include a trip to Savute Marsh. The Marsh is the perfect spot to see grunting hippos, elephants coming for a drink, or some of the abundant bird life like the secretary bird, storks, carmine bee-eaters, fish eagles, and red-billed queleas. Besides the exciting game drives, adventurers may choose to visit the prehistoric San rock paintings at Gubatsa Hills which were formed millions of years ago from volcanic movement.

The lodge’s main thatch and timber building houses a comfortable lounge, cocktail bar, and library. The viewing deck provides not only stunning views of the game animals visiting the nearby waterhole but the perfect spot for an al fresco dinner under the star. The refreshing swimming pool and sundeck also overlook the busy waterhole. There is even a curio shop for souvenirs. Moreover, the area around the camp is well-known for its population of bull elephants and for the unique interaction of the resident predator species.
