๐ Moremi Game Reserve, Botswana
โDeep in the heart of the Okavango Delta in the Moremi Game Reserve resides Xigera Safari Lodge โ a passion project for the Tollman Family inspired by their love of Botswana and the wild African bush. Rising up from the rich Delta soils on a framework of steel posts, the buildings stand lightly on the earth, fitting naturally amongst the large tree species of the island; the wooden-clad exteriors of the suites and main decks blend perfectly into a natural wilderness.โ

๐South Luangwa National Park, Zambia
๐ธ
Sungani Lodge and Kulandila Camp opened their doors this month.
These beautiful family-owned and run properties are the most southerly camps in the South Luangwa National Park making them incredibly remote.
A passion for Africa and each family memberโs unique set of skills have wrought Sungani Lodge and Kulandila Camp.
Transforming the area of the South Luangwa National Park from a state of neglect into something quite extraordinary.
Translated to mean 'custodian' in the Chichewa language, Sungani was built to emulate the natural tones and textures of the wild, and prides itself on using mostly local ingredients. The main lodge is entirely open-sided so mealtimes are an added opportunity to watch the wildlife quench their thirst or wallow in the lagoon. The state-of-the-art tented suites enjoy panoramic views that will have you dreaming of the next day's adventures, whether that's boating down the Luangwa River or enjoying an iconic walking safari.
Good Morning!

Linkwasha and its panoramic views of the plains immerse you in the bush, as a steady stream of elephants, buffalos, wildebeest, zebras, sable antelopes, eland, and other game make their way past the ground-level rooms to the busy waterhole in front of the main area. Nine elegant tents, nestling under a tree canopy, are shaded in the environmentโs neutral tones as well as bolder Ndebele patterns, reflecting local culture. On many evenings, youโll be joined for dinner โ perhaps just drinks โ as elephants siphon their fill from the pool, then rumble off into the darkness, just as the stars come out.
