"Savute Elephant Lodge review"

3 nights Arrived 15 Sep 2022
"The lodge was a step up from that of Shinde and Kanana and our room had a wonderful view over the pool where elephants bathed and played virtually all of the day.

Dining was on your own private table. Food and service were excellent.

The safaris were in a public area, as opposed to the privacy of the concessions in Shinde and Kanana and it seemed that we had to travel much further distances to see the animals." See all these reviews: 12n in Botswana; 2n in Zimbabwe

"Savute Elephant Camp review"

2 nights Arrived 23 May 2009
"Incredible site (loved watching the elephants from our porch).

First guide - Phillip was unfriendly and rushed. They were accomodating to our request for a switch. Second guide - Axe was lovely. Took his time and explained many things.

The wildlife viewing was incredible." See all these reviews: 6n in Botswana; 2n in Zambia
