Island Safari Lodge

Island Safari Lodge - General

 

Island Safari Lodge is set on a 300-acre private island reserve, and is just 10 km away from Maun Airport. It is situated on the banks of the Thamalakane River under a canopy of beautifully lush and green Okavango trees. The lodge overlooks a floodplain of fields and water that are frequented by an abundance of birdlife and the occasional hippo. The lodge offers a tranquil bush setting that is complimented by the river view, a pool and the iconic tranquil call of the African Fish Eagle.

 

The Location

Island Safari Lodge is situated about 10 km from the Airport.  From Maun, take the main road that runs north-east towards the Moremi.  Just before you cross the river, turn left and follow the dirt road for 3 km.  This road is accessible to most vehicles, but the sand might sometimes be a bit loose.  Small or very low vehicles might experience a bit of difficulty.
