Dinaka Safari Lodge invites you to lose yourself in an African sky – whether you are captured by a sunset, dazzled by the diamond-dotted night sky above or in awe of the high-noon endless soft blue.
Situated in the heart of Botswana – on the northern border of the Central Kalahari Game Reserve – the 3 Star Ker & Downey Dinaka Safari Lodge offers an explosion of colourful birdlife, herds of graceful antelope, and prides of Africa’s fiercest predators – amongst them the Kalahari black-maned lion.
The constantly changing face of this landscape – from stark wilderness in winter, to lush vegetation in summer – makes Dinaka an African holiday to be remembered.

The spacious main lodge is furnished with comfort in mind and provides guests with lounges, a dining and bar area, and a splash pool for those hotter months.
