Check in to Shearwater Explorers Village
Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe
At Shearwater Explorers Village, you’ll never forget the close proximity of Victoria Falls. The thunderous roar of tumbling water is a constant companion and, on some mornings, the property even receives a shower from the Falls themselves. Set in pretty, wild gardens just 400 metres away from the famous waterfall, the lodge has a laidback, amiable atmosphere and locally-inspired decor. After tucking into a ‘full Bushman’s Breakfast, enjoy all the activities available, from helicopter flight to sunset cruises on the Zambezi. Then, in the evenings, fall asleep to the sound of the ‘Smoke that Thunders’.
Why you’ll love it
The Victoria Falls are a short and scenic walk away, so you couldn’t be in a better spot for exploring.

Check in to Chobe Game Lodge
Chobe, Botswana
Chobe Game Lodge is far more like a hotel than a lodge, with its forty-four rooms appointed with all the modern conveniences you’d expect to find in a city. It is, in fact, the only hotel or lodging option within the Chobe National Park – and a perfectly positioned one at that. It also boasts an impressive amount of eco-friendly innovations and initiatives, including a fleet of silent electric game viewers which is not just novel but truly enhances a safari experience. With newly renovated facilities and updated Moroccan-style decor, it has a colourful, romantic feel that is somehow just the right mix of practical and whimsical. Here, things are structured a bit differently from your average safari lodge – an activities coordinator organises your itinerary (much like a concierge), though you are encouraged to make suggestions and diverge from the game plan. Despite its size, the lodge achieves personalised service; this, combined with its stunning location on the banks of the Chobe River, makes it a top option in the region.
Why you’ll love it
The location inside the national park. Revel in the quiet moments first thing in the morning and last thing at night when you’ll feel as if you have the whole park to yourself. Well, you kind of do!

Check in to Savute Safari Lodge
Savuti, Botswana
A relatively traditional game lodge, this camp offers access to some of Botswana’s most dramatic game viewing along the evanescent Savute channel in Chobe National Park. The camp is perched right on the bank of the channel, which somewhat erratically flows and is dry through other periods, save a few waterholes. This location ensures that a near-constant flow of wildlife streams past your front doorstep. The lodge provides a high level of service and privacy in a very popular region, as well as some expert guiding to help ensure you seeing what you came to see.
Why you’ll love it
Watching elephants bathe and drink in the channel from the comfort of the camp lounge or your own private deck is as relaxing as game viewing can be.

Check in to Camp Moremi
Moremi, Okavango Delta, Botswana
Camp Moremi is located in one of the busier regions of the reserve for two good reasons: it’s beautiful (especially on and around the nearby Xakanaxa lagoon), and the game viewing is fantastic. The downside is that you have to share – a few other camps as well as self-drive tourists also have access to this area. But the camp itself is a private refuge, a world away from the buzz. It offers friendly, efficient and personalised service and is both spacious and comfortable.
Why you’ll love it
What’s not to love? The camp sits right beside a bird-rich lagoon, every room feels up-close to nature, and a spirited round of singing precludes dinner.

Check in to Camp Okavango
Moremi, Okavango Delta, Botswana
Recently refurbished, Camp Okavango now offers some of the most beautiful and elegant accommodation available in this pristine region of the Delta. This part of the private Shindi concession has a wide range of habitats but is dominated by permanent channels and shallow floodplains, making activities primarily water-focused. There is no vehicle traffic to disturb the peace. This camp suits a traveller whose priority is relaxation and experiencing the stunning landscape surrounding this private, luxurious camp. It offers an altogether different experience of the wilderness, where seeing big game is not the sole focus.
Why you’ll love it
The remoteness. Nxaragha Island sits deep in the permanent Delta – no roads, no other camps in sight, just water, papyrus and seemingly endless wilderness in every direction.
