How do you choose one excellent lodge out of dozens of good vacations in Africa? You can't. And that's exactly why we're here, to cover some of the most beautiful lodges in Rwanda, Tanzania or South Africa.
Bisate Lodge - Rwanda
If you want to see one of the most special animals in the world, in Volcanoes National Park you can see the endagered mountain gorillas.
This park is placed on a hill overseeing the volcanic cliffs of Bisoke and Karisimbi. The lodge has six villas that compare to huge weaver nests. Inside, you will find all the comfort you need for a good holiday: tubs, fierplaces, soft fabrics. Plus, if you're a fan of trekking, Bisate is the perfect point to start your trails up in the mountains, and see some gorillas and golden monkeys. Rwanda is a must-visit destination if you're an outdoor lover and you want to experience safari tourism to maintain nature and empower the local comunity.
Singita Mara River Camp - Tanzania
A fan of wildlife? You should probably try this camp then, on the banks of the Mara River. Each morning at Singita’s Mara River Camp you’ll awake in the middle of the Serengeti to the sound of birds singing. Watching a river crossing can be spectacular, and it usually atracts a lot of visitors who stay at this camp. But Mara River Camp can offer you the privacy you need without feeling overwhelmed by tourists, and you can leisurely watch the river from the convenience of the lodge.
Segera Retreat - Kenya
This is a guesthouse resort that focuses on sustainability and conservation. It also showcases a splendid collection of safari-related antiques as well as modern African art. If you're a Safari traditionalist, you will clearly enjoy seeing the amazing memorabilia: signed Hemingway letters, a vintage plane used in the movie Out of Africa (guests who stay at the property can experience a safari from the sky), and a modern art collection.
Mombo Lodge - Botswana
Botswana’s Okavango Delta has a landscape like no other on the globe. So, you're in for a treat if you choose this to be your vacation destination. It's a 6,000-square-mile paradise surrounded by a maze of canals where you can find hundreds of animals. This lodge is an eight-suite intimate camp in the Moremi Game Reserve in the Delta. It's also famous for being one of the most expensive safaris in Africa. However, the history of ecotourism in Botswana has inspired sustainable safari camps of the future. Bird watching and game viewing from this lodge is absolutely unique. Expecte to see lions, elephants, cheetahs, leopards and rhinos. Plus, you can explore wild floodplains and marvel at the rich flore of the place.
The Farmstead at Royal Malewane - South Africa
If you're looking for something truly unique and outstanding, the Farmstead at Royal Malewane is the place to go. This is a public/private collaboration in the Greater Kruger area, created by the Biden family. South Africa is renowned for its hospitality, and this is no exception. The lodge beautifully combines modern farmhouse arrangements with rich colors and modern African Art. It has three suites and a beautiful villa, being thought one of the most challenging inns to get into in South Africa. At the same time, it's also considered to be one of the best. The Farmstead has a number of expert trackers and outstanding guides in Africa and you can also take numerous hiking safari tracks with an expert. It is a fantastic manner to experience Africa and a remarkable opportunity.
