Tlouwana Camp lies in northern Botswana, at its intersection with three other nations – Namibia, Zambia and Zimbabwe. Set just outside Chobe National Park, famous for its life-giving waters and its impressive numbers of elephants (said to be the greatest on Earth), this is an ideal base for exploring the park's varied habitats. Chobe's vast green floodplains lead to dry savannas, woodlands to riverine forests – all forming a complex ecosystem that supports a wealth of species. With modern tented accommodation, excellent guides and a range of activities at a very fair price, Tlouwana is definitely an option to consider.
Tents are elevated on golden pine-wood decking, with broad, shaded porches out front. Entered via canvas "doors", the interiors are simple but slick, with four-poster double beds draped with mosquito netting. At the rear of each is a spacious bathroom with double basin, flush toilet and hot shower. Family rooms are considerably larger, sleeping four comfortably. Enter from the wide veranda through sliding glass doors to the open-plan room, furnished with two twins and a double bed.
Cruising on the camp's pontoon, getting up close to grazing buffalo and wallowing, harrumphing hippo.
Just a four-minute walk away from the main camp is the viewing deck, which faces a behind-the-fence bush waterhole.
Tlouwana Camp may sit outside Chobe National Park, but its location actually makes it ideal for exploring the park and other sights like Victoria Falls.
