Situated in the western corner of the world-renowned Chobe National Park; the Savuti region is one of Botswana's most exceptional safari destinations, offering unrivaled game viewing and up-close encounters with numerous predators inhabiting the reserve. Savute Safari Lodge is a luxury lodge situated on the banks of the Savute River channel in Chobe National Park, Botswana.
Savute Safari Lodge is an exclusive and tranquil retreat in the African bush, complete with its own resident herd of elephant and spectacular views of the park and the Savute Channel.
During the summer months of November and December and again from February to April, Savute Safari Lodge offers a prime viewing spot of Africa's second largest Zebra migration. Although this spectacle is governed by the arrival of the rains, it's a sight to behold as the Zebra move from the rivers in the north to the southwestern region of the park in search of greener grazing grounds and water. The migration attracts the attention of many predators, making the Zebra Migration an event not to be missed!
Savute Safari Lodge boasts eleven well-appointed thatch and timber Chalets and one Family Room.
Each elevated chalet is decorated in neutral earthy tones and complimented with wooden and woven furniture. Each features a combined bedroom and lounge area with twin beds that can be converted into a double, an en-suite bathroom with shower and luxury bathroom amenities, overhead fan, in-room safe, tea and coffee making facilities, hairdryer, umbrella, air horn, and private deck that overlooks the waterhole.
The Family Suite has all the amenities of the chalets but comprises of two double bedrooms.
The lodge facilities include a reception, indoor and outdoor dining areas, campfire area, swimming pool, bar, curio shop, and a shaded viewing deck that overlooks the Savuti Channel and the lodge's waterhole that is frequently visited by wildlife.
The lodge activities include morning and afternoon game drives in the Savute Marsh region and visits to Gubatsa Hills where you can view ancient San rock paintings in the small hilly outcrop.
The Savute region is a wildlife sanctuary most famous for its predators, zebra and large elephant herds. With 450 species of bird recorded in the region, bird watching is phenomenal.
Savute Safari Lodge is ideal for solo explorers, couples and families looking for a rewarding safari experience.

Safari booking
Fadiel was very prompt in responding to my emails. Despite a double booking for our Safari - not his fault - everything worked out well in the end.

Seems pointless to book things direct when Safari.com can do it all for you at the same cost
I wasn’t actually planning on leaving a review until after our trip which has been scheduled for March 2025. I wasn’t even planning to use a travel company to assist as we are experienced travellers who are used to booking our own arrangements. The cost of going direct with suppliers and going through Safari.com was exactly the same - with the latter you also have outstanding service and advice which makes it pointless to do it yourself. But I felt compelled to leave a shout out for Leigh-Ann Croeser who has been extremely helpful in organising our itinerary for South Africa. Her response to queries was always prompt and professional. When we ultimately wish to travel to East Africa, I know who I will be contacting.
