Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the difference between a tented camp and a permanent lodge?
Tented camps use canvas suites, often on raised platforms, and are typically more intimate and lower-impact. Permanent lodges offer solid construction and sometimes more facilities, both can be equally luxurious.
Which lodges are best for first-time Botswana visitors?
Okavango Delta camps and Chobe riverfront lodges offer the most classic, wildlife-dense introduction to Botswana, combining water and land-based game viewing.
Can I combine several lodge styles in one trip?
Yes, most Botswana itineraries move between two or three ecosystems, pairing an Okavango Delta camp with a Chobe riverfront lodge or a Kalahari retreat, for genuinely varied experiences.
Can you substitute a different lodge from this list?
Yes. Every itinerary is tailor-made, so we can swap any lodge shown here for an alternative that better suits your budget, dates or preferences.
