Thank you for your patience while we are working on a more extensive and detailed review of this lodge.

Thamo Telele

Thamo Telele, previously known as Royal Tree Lodge, is now managed by Natural Selection and recently underwent a refurbishment. During the period of refurbishment in late 2021 a female giraffe was born on the reserve. She was very tall at birth and was soon called Thamo Telele. which means ‘long neck’ in Setswana. Thamo Telele the baby giraffe soon captured the hearts of those around her in such a profound way, that it was decided to rename the ‘new’ lodge after her.
