Savuti Marsh is located within the spectacular Chobe National Park in Botswana and stretches all along the northern boundaries of the park to the Linyanti River. Savuti was dry and waterless for almost 3 decades, and artificial waterholes nourished the wildlife. Now up and running again, it offers an excellent base for Botswana safari tours.
Savuti’s spectacular landscapes are covered with lush vegetation and marshlands, where an abundance of wildlife freely roam. The highlights of Savuti Marsh include the majestic zebra migration from the northern sections of Botswana, the rocky outcrops of the Gubatsa Hills, a myriad of birds, and incredible wildlife.
Famous as the stage upon which lion prides compete with hyena clans for food and territory, Savuti Marsh has long been the destination of choice for safari aficionados. A remote area of the Chobe National Park, it has earned its international reputation for raw, dramatic game viewing, thanks to its open landscapes, abundant wildlife, and full repertoire of predators.

Wilderness Savuti is situated in the private Linyanti Wildlife Reserve along the Savuti Channel, famous as a sporadic and unusual watercourse. As part of a natural cycle, the waters of the Savuti either flow strongly – a magnet for thirsty wildlife – or recede to leave behind a rich grassland.
Savute Safari Lodge offers a shaded viewing deck, an al fresco dining area and swimming pool with spectacular pool loungers – ideal for watching the varied wildlife – including the resident Elephants – as they make their way to the Channel to drink, bathe and play.
Evoking the feel of a timeless explorers’ lodge, our sustainably designed oasis immerses you in the untamed wilderness of Botswana’s Savute region. Relax in visually calming spaces, filled with rich textures, earthy colours and furniture crafted by local artisans. Watch elephants, hyenas and leopards drink at the watering hole from our new viewing hide.
