"Great safari at Savute Safari Lodge"
There are lion at Savuti, but I did not see any, although on my last morning when we were looking for lion we ended up in the middle of a vast herd of zebra which stretched as far as the eye could see on every side: it was spectacular.
I had an excellent guide, Baba, who was also great at pointing out birds for me as well. Because the other party who should have shared my truck did not do the first evening drive and the left the next day I had two days with a truck to myself so it was like a private safari - it was great."

"Savute Safari Lodge review"
It was a real treat to be able to watch so many elephant drinking at the watering hole from our deck, and we enjoyed this very much.
We found the facilities were not as good as at the other camps. The buffet food was fine but not brilliant, which was a shame as the staff were very enthusiastic." See all these reviews: 8n in Botswana; 1n in Zimbabwe
