Beautiful lodge located at the panhandle.
Nice spacious cabin with everything you might need present.
Must do: Rent a boat at sunset, so many beautiful birds and surrounding!
Diner and breakfast buffet was very good quality.
We stayed in the campground for one night in September 2018. The campground was great with large sites, flush bathrooms, and electricity. The wildlife viewing around the campground was great, including vervet monkeys in the campground and around the lodge, so keep your food locked...More

In the North-Western corner of Botswana, situated on the banks of the Okavango River and in the panhandle of the Okavango Delta, you will find the lush green lawns and tall, shady indigenous trees, of a paradise …Morecalled Drotsky's Cabins. The area is a birding and fishing paradise, and Drotsky's is the ideal stop over for tourists en route from or to Namibia and a wonderful place to relax for a few days while enjoying a boat cruise on the Okavango River, or visit the nearby World Heritage Site of Tsodilo Hills and Mahangu National Park.

Hi Yvonne,
The Mohembo border crossing is a small, quiet border post. On the Namibian side you will have to register at the entry gate for Mahangu Game Reserve, then drive approximately 15km through the reserve to the border post. (The ferry runs from the town of Shakawe across the Okavango river, to reach the town of Seronga. so if you are coming to Drotsky's, you do not use the ferry at all. Regards, Drotsky's Cabins
