This serene oasis is situated on an unblemished tract of the Green Kalahari, the ancestral home of the KhoiSan, in the greater Augrabies region of the Northern Cape. Tutwa is a truly special lodge with 24km of Orange River frontage. Located within close proximity to the world-famous Augrabies Falls National Park, it enjoys a front-row seat to the seasonal Wild Flower show from August to September.

The cool, luxurious and spacious suites have their own verandas and balconies, offering stunning landscape and mountain views of the Green Kalahari. Surrounded by the African bush, the lodge is an oasis of tranquility in an ancient desert with wildlife in view. The lodge offers a top-end safari adventure destination with game viewing in a desert environment, magnificent star-gazing, world-class fly fishing, river rafting on the Orange River, a Leopard protection project, walking trails and a magnificent Bird River Safari with floating picnic. 

Tutwa is committed to a greener lifestyle and deeply engaged in the conservation of the area’s leopards and its fauna and flora, while providing opportunities for local communities. Tutwa Lodge is a perfect sanctuary from which to experience rewarding wilderness encounters.
