Welcome to Okavango River Lodge Backpackers & campsite.
Sitting on the banks of the Thamalakane River, we can boast the largest river frontage as well as being one of the oldest watering holes in Maun.

We offer cool thatched ensuite chalets. We have dormitories, family accommodation, and three double chalets. We also have a campsite along the river under the shady acacia trees.

We welcome families and children of all ages.

Eating out? - Our kitchen serves good home cooking open from 7am until 9pm. A river lodge breakfast is a must or try our notable Bunny Chow!

We also cater for private functions such as weddings and birthdays, the banks of the river making a stunning venue.

We offer boat cruises, mokoro trips, safaris, and can organise horse rides, scenic flights and bird walks. In fact we can help you and advise on anything you need. So come and visit us, no matter if you came back from a Safari into the Delta or had a relaxing day sun-bathing, you'll enjoy our open and spacious bar area for a nice evening experience. Share your day with other guests or the many Maun residents that drop in for a sun-downer on their way home.

We are now affiliated with Bokomosa Group of Lodges.
We hope our clients will understand the need for the small increase in rates, however there will be upgrades to look forward to in the near future, including permanent tents and a kitchen area for guest use.
