Ant's River Lodge
Are you travelling with someone who does not ride?
No problem. On the fixed departure dates (which you can find at the bottom), you can travel with companions who do not ride – they can instead enjoy game drives and bush walks, and you spend all the remaining time together.
Accommodation
Ant’s River Lodge is built around the river and the open landscape, with classic thatched roofs, natural materials and open spaces that blur the boundary between indoors and outdoors. The main building houses a lounge, bar and dining area beneath high vaulted ceilings, while a generous deck looks out over the Mokolo River and the surrounding plains where wildlife is constantly on the move. After long days in the saddle, there is plenty of space to unwind – in the shade of the veranda, by the pool overlooking the landscape, or in front of the fire in the boma in the evening. The atmosphere is relaxed yet considered, with the same personal hospitality for which Ant Africa are known. The lodge also has a spa overlooking the river, where treatments are offered for anyone wanting to relax even further – an unusual feature on this type of riding safari, and a clear complement to the experience in the saddle. The rooms at Ant’s River Lodge are spread out along the river, creating a calm and private feel with views over the Mokolo River from every veranda. Each room is detached and designed in a classic safari style, with natural materials, earthy tones and wooden and leather details. All rooms have en-suite bathrooms and can be configured as double or twin, with comfortable beds dressed in crisp linen. There is air conditioning for hot days and heated blankets for cooler nights, as well as facilities such as a minibar, tea and coffee-making facilities and a safe.
