Surrounded by dramatic scenery the remote lodge of Tutwa is a luxurious wilderness retreat that manages to remain unpretentious while offering a 5-star experience. An oasis in the remote Northern Cape, Tutwa Desert Lodge offers a private wilderness safari, with a blend of bush and river experiences – soul-soothing silence, adventurous Orange River rafting and an exploration of the mountains, on foot. Designed with comfort in mind, you’ll be welcomed with spacious, luxurious and indulgent suites which have verandahs or balconies that open out to landscape and mountain views. Tutwa Desert Lodge’s cool interiors are a tranquil sanctuary against the scorching sun and comprise organic, muted colours, polished floors, high ceilings and striking artwork. Delicious meals are served in the dining area, boma or al fresco on the deck, accompanied by fine local wines. This is African cuisine with fresh contemporary flavours.
