The Evolve Back Gham Dhao Lodge is situated on the northern border of the Central Kalahari Game Reserve in Botswana. Classically African in style with a relaxed, informal ambience, it harks back to the days of the early explorers.

The Lodge boasts of three categories of unique tented accommodations strategically secluded to ensure a feeling of privacy and intimacy at all times. The lodge can accommodate a maximum of twenty guests, thus ensuring exclusivity that defines contemporary luxury.

Situated in an 11,000-hectare private game reserve, the lodge introduces you to every aspect of the Kalahari, from its famed night skies and unique wildlife to the resident San people and their ancient culture.
