A more accessible eco-leaning safari lodge option in the Greater Kruger area, giving you strong wildlife potential (including big cats) while keeping a “bush first” atmosphere.

If you want the eco-lux “tented camp” vibe—canvas, stars, campfire energy—this is a great fit. You get a more nature-connected stay than a classic lodge, but still with comfort, service, and a strong Serengeti location for game drives (especially if you’re targeting big cats and the central wildlife corridors).

This is for travelers who want eco-lux with variety: classic game drives plus the famous boat safari feel of the Kazinga Channel region. It’s a strong pick for Uganda because you’re mixing landscapes, wildlife, and that lush, green “different from savannah” atmosphere—without giving up comfort.

Botswana is the home of eco-lux safaris, and Kadizora fits that spirit: remote delta setting, water-and-wildlife experiences, and an “all-inclusive in the bush” rhythm that makes everything feel seamless. It’s ideal if you want a premium Okavango-style safari without overthinking the logistics.

A water-focused delta experience: think boat time, birdlife, reed-lined channels, and a softer, slower safari mood compared to big-game plains camps. It’s a great eco-lux choice if you want the Okavango’s wetlands, sunsets over water, and that “we’re truly in the delta” feeling.

A smart eco-leaning “gateway lodge” if you want comfort, atmosphere, and an easy base near Maun before/after flying into the Okavango. It’s not a deep-bush tented camp—but it’s a stylish, nature-forward stop that makes the logistics feel smooth (and your safari feel more premium overall).
