{ Everything was beautifully presented, thoughtfully prepared and impeccably maintained. The peaceful setting, with its magnificent views over the river, is incredibly relaxing. The meals were outstanding, made even more special by the fresh ingredients produced right here at Semowi, including eggs, goat's milk and vegetables from the garden. The attentive team completed a truly memorable dining experience. {

{ You should stay here. Seriously. Semowi offers incredible value, and every detail reflects the care and passion of the people behind it. Don't miss the restaurant, enjoy the sunrise from the beautiful terrace, and treat yourself to some of the best food we had in Botswana. The staff are warm and professional, and the chef's passion shines through in every meal. Thank you for your wonderful hospitality! {

{ Before we arrived, we received clear driving directions, and we were warmly welcomed by the team. Our campsite was spacious, had electricity, and the facilities were spotless and felt brand new. The restaurant, overlooking the river, quickly became one of our favourite places. We enjoyed both lunch and dinner there because the food was simply delicious, and breakfast the next morning, with fresh bread, homemade jam, eggs and beans, was the perfect start to the day. The drive is part of the adventure and is easily manageable with a 4x4. {
