If you're going on a safari, but also like staying in nice accommodations; then stay here. I was amazed at the quality and design of the lodge I stayed in, and the main lodge where we ate and had drinks. The quality of everything was exceptional even though it's in the middle of nowhere. The staff and management team were wonderful and made the stay a fantastic experience. Our guide was great. During our game drives it was like spending time with a friend. If I head back to Chobe I will stay here, no doubt. Thanks to everyone that works-at and makes the Ngoma Safari Lodge great.

We stayed for 4 nights and every member of staff went out of their way to ensure we had 4 days of special memories. Our lodge was at the end and we were able to sit outside and watch all manner of animals and birds walk down to the river. The lodge itself was spacious and beautifully set out. The food is excellent especially the home made granola. All the professional guides are excellent but maybe you will be fortunate and get Sam with his lucky lion jeep. We will be back!!!! Thank you

Room tip: All rooms are the same but no1 is at the end

You have a beautiful facility. I enjoyed my stay greatly and would highly recommend it to others. I was on several of the game drives including a night drive and an early morning drive. On the morning drive, we viewed the only hyenas we saw on our entire African trip, which included game drives in Namibia and in Zimbabwe.
