Top choice in Botswana


If you’re after Kgalagadi's most luxurious experience, book a night here. Owned and operated by the local San community, the lodge is a dry, dreamy fantasy in ochre, decorated with wall hangings made by a local women's sewing collective and overlooking an evocative circular pan.

There's an on-site pool and the San staff, cultural activities (including wilderness walks) and excellent wildlife drives round out a fine package.
