Savute pulses to a timeless rhythm, a melody of mysterious wet and dry cycles, which moulds its landscape and determines its inhabitants. A winding fossil channel vanishes into the sweeping expanse of a relic marsh where the spectacular fortress of the Gubatsa Hills relieves Savute's otherwise flat countryside.
Savute Safari Lodge peers out from ancient acacia trees on the edge of the channel. 12 twin-bedded thatched safari suites, crafted from timber and glass, feature an overhead fan, en suite facilities and private viewing platforms and offer luxury and comfort without detracting from your wilderness experience. The cocktail bar beckons you with a cold drink on a hot Savute day, while a fireplace turns the lounge into a cosy refuge on winter nights.
During the summer months a dip in the plunge pool offers welcome respite from the midday sun. Game drives in open vehicles are conducted by a professional guide and provide the chance of seeing numerous wildlife species. Thousands of zebra visit Savute en route to the new grasses at Mababe in the south, and return around February on their way home to Linyanti. They share the marsh with tsessebe, wildebeest, giraffe and cheetah. The rains also welcome thousands of migrant birds that swell Savute's existing 300 species. Delicious dinners are served in the thatched area overlooking the channel.
