I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Impalila Island Lodge, in particular the magnificent views over the river. The lodge has a really relaxed atmosphere with friendly staff and great guides.

Impalila Island Lodge is a 16-bedded luxury lodge with much to offer discerning clients. The Lodge is situated in north eastern Namibia on Impalila Island which forms the meeting place of four countries - Namibia, Zambia, Zimbabwe and Botswana. The surrounding area is an amazing mosaic of waterways, floodplains and bushveld:- host to exceptional birdlife, game viewing and assorted vegetation - and in the waters outstanding fishing opportunities. Impalila is also the most secluded and remote of the Chobe destinations but close enough to offer guests the very best of the Chobe River – that is game viewing by boat.

  • At Impalila game viewing by boat in the Chobe National Park for Africa's big game is preferable during the mid afternoon to sunset when game comes down to the water’s edge to drink. The Chobe is but a short distance away and one of the attractions is to take a late afternoon cruise into the Kasai channel and from there into the Chobe - renowned for vast elephant herds, buffalo, lion, hippo, the rare Chobe bushbuck and puku.
  • Elephant cross the Chobe onto Impalila Island often, and along with hippo, sitatunga can be seen from Impalila Island Lodge.
