Modumo Lodge
The newest of the Okavango Lodges, Modumo Lodge is situated
in the remote North Eastern Delta, outside of the National
Park - so allowing night game drives and walking safaris,
as well as the usual 4x4 Game drives, mokoro and motor
launch excursions
Accommodation is in 8 well appointed luxury Chalets,
each with en-suite facilities (bath and shower) and
each overlooking the lagoon in front of the Lodge.
The attention to detail and use of local craftsmanship
in the construction of the Chalets is particularly
impressive and attractive.
Facilities in the Lodge include a small swimming pool
and sun deck and a well stocked bar.
Game viewing is particularly good in this area. Hippos
live in the lagoon opposite the lodge, and the trees
around the Lodge are home to a huge variety of birds.
Modumo Lodge is the first (and currently the only)
Lodge in the Okavango owned by a Batswanan named Modumo
who manages the Guiding. A South African couple manage
the hospitality. This 'hands on' ownership and management
makes Modumo Lodge one of the most welcoming Lodges
in the Okavango!
Being in a permanent water area, Modumo Lodge can
offer year round water activities, especially important
during January - May when water levels in the Okavango
can become too low to allow the use of the traditional
mokoro.
