Mapula Lodge, Botswana

Experience Botswana with Mapula Lodge

“A true wilderness experience in the Okavango Delta

Mapula Lodge (6)

Situated in the northern area of the Okavango Delta, just outside the Moremi Game Reserve. This is a private area, giving the lodge the ability to offer a full spectrum of activities.

Mapula Lodge has become synonymous with providing a true wilderness offering and with a permanent lagoon situated right in front of the main complex the setting is just about perfect...


MAPULA LODGE - MAIN COMPLEX

The main complex with its sweeping decks overlooks the permanent lagoon where the resident pod of hippopotamus resides. Here you will find the comfortable lounge, dining area and a bar area with one of the best views in the Okavango Delta. A small library and swimming pool completes the main area.

MAPULA LODGE - ACCOMMODATION

Each of the 10 luxury chalets has a traditional design and use of natural log provides unique detail. The attention to detail and use of local craftsmanship in the construction of the chalets is particularly impressive and attractive. The units all boast a small lounge and a full bathroom (with bathtub and outside shower).

MAPULA LODGE - ACTIVITIES

Game viewing is particularly good in this area, and the trees around the lodge are home to a huge variety of birds.

Being in a permanent water area, Mapula Lodge can offer year-round water activities, especially important during January - May when water levels in the Okavango can become too low in most areas to allow the use of the traditional mokoro.

Mapula offers walking safaris with experienced guides and tracker, night drives in search of nocturnal animals. In the early morning and late afternoons game drives are conducted in comfortable safari vehicles.

I think the following very recent comment made by a guest to Mapula Lodge says it all! “WOW WOW WOW WOW WOW Do I need to say more – We loved this place and the wonderful people.

This is definitely a place for people who are serious about their game viewing, the enthusiasm and the passion that is shown by the guides and the trackers is unbelievable." The African wild dogs have denned for two consecutive breeding seasons at Mapula Lodge. The pack of wild dogs at Mapula Lodge has re-written our perception and understanding of wild dog behaviour.

The game experience is enhanced through off-road operating – a key to delivering a quality look at the predators that are widespread in our area.

Mapula Lodge operates on our own exclusive private area.
