Situated on the northern edge of the central Kalahari Game Reserve in a private reserve, Deception Valley Lodge provides a unique experience for those who wish to soak up the true atmosphere of the bush in one of Africa’s remote semi-desert areas where Bushmen once roamed. The Bushman experience is a highlight at this safari lodge.
Deception Valley Lodge accommodates up to sixteen people in six chalets and one family suite with two en-suite bedrooms, a large terrace and a private pool. Each unit offers an en-suite Victorian-style bathroom, an outside shower and a private spacious lounge. All units are fitted with ceiling fans and mosquito nets. The chalets are connected with the main lodge by wooden walkways.
The main complex boasts a dining room, lounge and bar area decorated in warm Kalahari colours and a large deck from which guests have an amazing view over the waterhole which frequently gets visited by a variety of animals. Guests can exercise in the lodge’s very own gym or relax by the swimming-pool. A curio shop completes the offer.
Activities at the lodge are undertaken in the Kalahari Private Reserve and include game drives in open 4x4 safari vehicles (with trackers), night drives in the reserve, bird watching and guided game walks with experienced guides. The Kalahari Desert is a harsh environment where water supplies are limited and the wildlife has adapted accordingly.

Located high on the edge of a rocky ridge overlooking the famous Chobe River is Chobe Elephant Camp. This uniquely designed lodge has been built to take advantage of the incredible views overlooking the sweeping floodplains while offering a comfortable refuge from the harsh African conditions.
The lodge has been entirely constructed from sandbags, the thick sand-filled walls create a natural insulating barrier between the inhabitants and the harsh African climate and enhance the old farm-style feel of the camp. It houses sixteen rooms, two family rooms and can sleep 36 guests at a time.
Activities include viewing the regions spectacular wildlife from open safari vehicles and by boat on the Chobe River as well as a cultural visit. Chobe Elephant Camp’s boat jetty is about one hours drive from camp, close to Ihaha in the heart of the Chobe National Park. This jetty is seasonal and usually operational in high water months from May until September, in other months the cruise starts in Kasane.
At an additional charge, guests can experience an unforgettable canoeing activity on the Chobe River, it is conducted by experienced guides and brings them closer to nature than a boating experience. This experience is subject to suitable water levels and needs to be pre-booked.
Chobe / Ngoma Gate
This property is located near the Ngoma Gate for entry to the Chobe Riverfront. Very few lodges are located on this end of the park and few people utilize this entry point, creating a more remote and exclusive experience than at the properties around Kasane. Although outside the park, this option is located in a bush setting where wildlife frequently passes through.
