Welcome to the NEW African Pride website.

Dinaka Game Drive

Overview

Dinaka is a 40,000-hectare private conservancy at the northern edge of the Central Kalahari Game Reserve. Being one of the most biodiverse landscapes in South Africa, the ever-changing surrounding desert makes for a unique Botswana experience.
 

Rooms


There are seven spacious thatched safari tents set on raised platforms giving the perfect vantage point over a permanent water hole, while maintaining privacy. Rooms are styled in an authentic way using canvas walls and wood throughout. All rooms have a spacious bedroom/seating area and are en-suite large indoor and outdoor showers. Families can enjoy the space provided in the two-bedroomed thatched tent, with a spacious en-suite bathroom.

Facilities

The main area is set on an open sided raised platform under a large thatch roof. There is a large, elegant dining space, bar and lounge/library area. A separate swimming pool area is an inviting space to relax during the day. Outside dining spaces can be found along with a campfire at the front of the lodge.

Activities are centred around game drives and nature walks. There is also a photographic bunker and hides for the perfect opportunity to capture on film the local wildlife up close in their natural surroundings.

"The holiday was absolutely fantastic. Saw all the big 5 except rhinos.The accommodation was top class (lovely big beds), the people who staffed it were so friendly, guides were so knowledgeable, you really felt they wanted you to visit their country. We did a helicopter tour over Victoria falls, which were awe inspiring - another highlight of the holiday. All the transfers were smooth and efficient and this reduced any stress in the holiday, loved the small plane hops between camps in Botswana. We had an unforgettable holiday and will be boring our friends and family with it for months. Thanks for your help in organising this wonderful holiday. "

"Back home after another fabulous holiday. The lodges were all of the same high standard of cleanliness, food quality and presentation with all members of staff helpful, friendly and as immaculately turned out as we remember from 4 years ago. The guides were all brilliant with their knowledge, enthusiasm and great sense of humour. We did a 4 hour game walk-brilliant! Again a great holiday - may well return in a few years!!"

We had a fabulous trip staying at 3 lodges in Botswana. My late husband and I were keen bird watchers and I donated his binoculars to one of the lodges there, for which they were very appreciative. Thank you for everything you did.
