As you know, Nature has its own rules...

Sinking water level affects activities at Chobe River Camp
Due to the current drought, the water level of the Chobe River is considerably lower than last year. With sandbanks emerging daily we have to adjust our activities at Chobe River Camp accordingly as the safety of our guests enjoys highest priority.
Until further notice unfortunately cannot offer boat cruises anymore but would like to invite our guests to join a half-day game drive (3 hours, AM or PM) at a special rate, bookable in advance. Alternative activities offered at the Lodge, subject to availability, are guided walking trails, canoe trips or birding drives.
If you still want to enjoy a relaxing boat cruise, we can recommend the various boat cruises and fishing trips on the Zambezi River at Zambezi Mubala Camp or Lodge, about 80 km from Chobe River Camp.

Under One Botswana Sky introduces game drives at Moremi Crossing and Gunn's Camp

Under One Botswana Sky is extremely excited to announce the immediate introduction of game drives at both Moremi Crossing and Gunn’s Camp.
With water levels lower than usual there are greater expanses of unexplored land mass within our concession that offer perfect opportunities for great game driving.
This new additional activity will be available during the drier cycles when water activities may become more limited. In high water our guests will once again get to enjoy very popular mekoro, boat cruises and fishing for the ultimate Delta experience.
Walking Safaris on the famous Chief’s Island in the Moremi Game Reserve, as well as within the concession, in combination with seasonal mekoro remain the highlight and a year-round activity.
The introduction of game drives adds even more value to these well priced Delta camps popular with smaller groups, families or travelers looking for more intimate Delta experience.
Points to note:
° Game drives started today
° Game drives take place in a private concession
° Morning and late afternoon drives with sundowners
° Gunn’s Camp maximum 6 guests per vehicle
° Moremi Crossing maximum 9 guests per vehicle
° No private vehicle option
° Game drives are offered as one activity only per night’s stay
In addition, this is the only area where guests can book “a night or 2 in the wilderness” – an adventurous and rustic experience in our bush camp – Adventure Camping.  This is now available year round and must be prebooked.  The nights spent in the wilderness must be in between at least one night at Gunn’s Camp/Moremi Crossing on either side of the camping.

ETOSHA KING NEHALE ACCOMMODATION

Exciting developments are afoot. Gondwana Collection Namibia is opening a new lodge 1km north of the King Nehale Gate on the northern border of Etosha National Park. Etosha King Nehale will host 40 rooms, which will pay homage to the rich cultural heritage of the area. The lodge is situated in the King Nehale Conservancy.

The area is characterised by vast and spectacular landscapes including the Andoni Plains, artesian springs and woodlands. To the north, the conservancy is surrounded by the pulsating life of the communal areas of the Oshikoto, Oshana, Ohangwena and Omusati Regions. Guests have the opportunity to combine the cultural vibrancy of so-called Owamboland with the natural wonders of the rarely frequented northern part of the Etosha National Park.

Etosha King Nehale opens on 1 May 2020.

Earlier opening date for Etosha King Nehale
We are happy to announce that the construction of Etosha King Nehale is progressing faster than expected. This brand new Gondwana lodge is situated on the Andoni plains just 48 km north of Namutoni and one kilometre from Etosha’s northern-most King Nehale gate.

Etosha King Nehale is now set to open its doors on 1 May 2020.
Each of the 40 spacious chalets, fit for a king, will have its own plunge pool and views over the plains, offering our guests the exceptional feeling of endless space and limitless horizons.
The crowning jewel is our concession for an exclusive waterhole in the Etosha National Park, which is not frequented by other travellers.
Etosha King Nehale is an easy stop after an exciting day of game-viewing in Etosha, and invites our guests to linger longer and explore Owamboland, a world of colour and culture unlike anywhere else in the country.
The lodge is also a much-needed stop on a journey to Namibia’s northern reaches, providing easy access to the Gondwana lodges in the Kavango and Zambezi regions, and to Palmwag Lodge & Camp and Omarunga Epupa-Falls Camp in the Kunene Region.
