Ngoma Safari Lodge

Chobe Forest Reserve, Botswana

A quietly elegant lodge on a ridge in the Chobe Forest Reserve, overlooking the floodplain toward the river.

Overview

Ngoma Safari Lodge sits on a ridge in the Chobe Forest Reserve bordering the national park, its elevated position giving wide views over the floodplain toward the Chobe River, favouring understated design over overt display.

Rooms & Table

The Rooms

Suites built from local stone and thatch, each with a private plunge pool and veranda facing the floodplain below.

Food & Service

A refined dining programme served with panoramic views, drawing on both Botswanan ingredients and international technique.

Activities

Game drives into Chobe National Park and the surrounding forest reserve, with river activities available nearby.

Wildlife & Photography

The forest reserve and adjoining floodplain support elephant, buffalo, and a range of antelope species moving between the woodland and the Chobe River’s water sources.

A Photographer's Note

The ridge-top position gives an elevated, wide-angle view over the floodplain, useful for landscape-inclusive shots of elephant herds moving below.

Conservation & Impact

The lodge supports Chobe Forest Reserve conservation initiatives and community programmes among villages bordering the reserve.
