Kaisosi River Lodge
the Okavango River - Namibia
The Kaisosi River Lodge is situated 7kms East of the north-eastern Namibian town of Rundu. The lodge is set on the banks of the perennial Okavango River, and is a convenient stopover for visitors on the way to the Popa Falls and the Caprivi.

The lodge has a thatched main building with a restaurant, bar and a guest lounge to relax and unwind, after a hard day's drive. All meals are served from the chef's 'a la carte,' menu.

- Family rooms: equipped with a double bed and 2 x single beds and a bath.
