In the heart of southern Africa is a land of contrasts - from the dry open land, which is home for the San people in the Central Kalahari to the crystal-clear waters of the Okavango Delta, the vast open Salt Pans in the Makgadigadi where man can still view herds of zebra migrating to the north and Chobe has the Gentle Giants which is Africa's largest single concentration of elephant.
Deception Valley Lodge is a luxury lodge situated in the Central Kalahari of Botswana. Experience the Kalahari with Bushman at hand, to share their knowledge, while you can relax in total luxury at this unique destination.
The Magadikgadi Pan is a large salt pan in the middle of the dry savanna of norht-eastern Botswana, it is one of the larges salt pans in the world. Much of Makgadikgadi Pans National Park comprises nutritious grasslands attracting thousands of animals. From April to November game such as springbok, gemsbok, wildebeest and zebra move slowly from the pans area in the south east of the park, to the Boteti River on the western side. During this migration animals accumulate in their thousands. The heavily wooded areas beside the river also contain shy antelopes like duiker and bushbuck.
The Okavango Delta with it’s crystal-clear waters is a magic oasis. The wide floodplains are host to a spectacular array of wild animals and a magnificent birdlife. Activities range from mokoro (traditional dug out canoe), private guided walks and walking trails, cultural interaction at an authentic Okavango Delta village . Accommodation range from Luxury Lodges to Exclusive Lodges. Most of the camps are only accesable by small aircrafts.

In the Selinda Reserve there are vast areas of woodland, places that are for lions and elephants only, or herds of buffalo that are never exposed to human pressures. This is a place where wildlife can breathe easily, free and unrestrained. The Selinda Reserve is an unfenced, wild, 320,000 acre private wildlife sanctuary straddling the Selinda Spillway with the best of both the Okavango and Kwando/Linyanti systems.
Selinda’s vast floodplains and ancient forests offer an authentic and timeless African experience. But
what makes this reserve so special is its exclusivity.
Within this massive wilderness, we only have a total of 18 guest tents in three small camps on the entire reserve.
Chobe is famous for its vast herds of elephants, Chobe National Park is the second largest park in Botswana. Chobe is the perfect safari destination to combine with a visit to the Victoria Falls, nearby Okavango Delta and the Central Kalahari. Victoria Falls and Livingstone are the two major airports near Chobe National Park and both have daily flights from Johannesburg. The airport Kasane is at Chobe National Park, however this airport only services local Botswana flights. There are also scheduled charter flights from Maun daily.

In the heart of the Chobe National Park, is the Savute - an area that personifies the eternal contrast of Africa.The Savute is a dramatic area which is home to high concentrations of elephant and lions. Prides up to 40 strong are not uncommon, as are sighting of all the other major predators; the endangered wild dog, leopard, cheetah and the hyena. Savute is also renowned for its excellent birding during the summer months (December through March).
There is a wide range of accommodation in Chobe from luxurious lodges and camps to more budget-friendly family options.
