SUGGESTED ACCOMMODATION

Experience the epitome of awe at Fish River Lodge, perched dramatically on the edge of Namibia’s iconic Fish River Canyon.

Exclusive Wilderness Escapes

Canyon Elegance

Dramatically set on the very edge of Namibia’s Fish River Canyon, the views you’ll get at this chic lodge will take your breath away.

It’s worth staying at Fish River Lodge during your tailored holiday to Namibia simply for the chance to drink in stunning sunrises and sunsets over the canyon and its unusual rock formations. But great vistas aren’t the only highlight of a stay here. Guests enjoy exclusive hiking opportunities and 4×4 excursions in the surrounding reserve – a chance to spot desert wildlife like oryx, springbok, klipspringer and mountain zebra – as well as fat bike and cycling tours. Activities are led by expert guides who will reveal the area’s fascinating geological history.

The lodge’s contemporary design and architecture are inspired by the rugged beauty and starkness of the surrounding landscape, combining designer furniture with local handicrafts. Accommodation comprises twenty modern, stone-walled chalets, all dotted along the canyon rim on either side of the main lodge. Each has a deck, large bathroom and outdoor shower, in addition to an outdoor platform that’s perfect for sleep outs under the stars.

“INDIA AT ITS MOST INCREDIBLE”

Unbelievably brilliant from start to finish. 91�� gave us complete flexibility while tailoring the trip to our personal preferences. Communication was excellent throughout, and the in-country team in India was super-efficient at every stage. The quality of the experience was exceptional – and the value for money, remarkable. From expert naturalists to thrilling wildlife encounters (tigers, leopards, 140 species of birds), awe-inspiring temples, the Taj Mahal, scenic walks and warm, welcoming people – not to mention the fantastic curry – it was a truly superb holiday. “Ultimate” really is “91��”!
