Ghoha Hills Savuti
4.0 star property
Chobe National Park
8.0 out of 10, Very good, (1 review)
"The lodge is ideally located in central Chobe National Park (preferably access with small plane at Savuti). Great for day safari trip. The GM couple is extremely caring and the staff very attentive to your needs. It's an amazing place. Prefer to go on dry season, as during wet season (Jan-April) animals are more difficult to see and some roads are flooded"

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Linyanti?
The best area to stay in Linyanti is within the private concessions that border the Linyanti River, particularly those bordering Chobe National Park.

These private concessions, such as the Linyanti Wildlife Reserve, offer exclusive access to vast wilderness areas and the Linyanti River itself. This region is known for its high concentration of wildlife, especially elephants, buffalo, and a variety of predators, thanks to the permanent water source. The concessions are typically unfenced, allowing animals to move freely, and lodges are generally spread out, ensuring a private and undisturbed experience.

For couples seeking an intimate and luxurious safari, staying in a lodge within one of these private concessions is ideal. You'll find properties offering private plunge pools, outdoor showers, and personalised service. Activities often include both day and night game drives, guided bush walks, and mokoro (traditional canoe) excursions on the Linyanti River, providing diverse ways to experience the wildlife away from larger crowds.

Families will also find these private concessions excellent, with many lodges offering specific family suites or villas. The exclusivity means that guides can tailor activities to suit different age groups, and the lack of crowds allows for more flexibility in safari timings.
When is the best time to go to Linyanti?
The best time to go to Linyanti is during the dry season, from May to October, when wildlife viewing is at its peak.

During these months, the Linyanti River and its associated wetlands become the primary water sources in the region. This draws a high concentration of animals, including large herds of elephants and buffalo, to the riverbanks, making them easier to spot. The vegetation is also less dense, further improving visibility.

This period is particularly well-suited for wildlife enthusiasts and photographers. The clear skies and cooler temperatures, especially in the mornings and evenings, make for comfortable game drives and walks. You'll have excellent opportunities to see a wide variety of animals gathering at waterholes.

While the dry season offers unparalleled wildlife viewing, the shoulder months of April and November can also be a good option for those looking for slightly fewer crowds and greener landscapes, though wildlife might be a bit more dispersed.
