Guest Reviews

• Luca (10/5): Amazing stay and great activities to choose from - Amazing stay at Destiny Blo Inn. The location is a little out of the way, so make sure you plan ahead with anything you need as there's nothing close-by. Rooms are very spacious and clean, bathrooms are spotless, nice and tasty breakfast served in the morning. Do not miss the chance of doing the game drive activity with Chimney: it's definitely been one of the highlights of our trip! Dinner selection is limited, and for the price paid you would expect a higher quality or more attention to details (cooking preference of the meat, for example)
• PHILVERH (10/5): - Nous avons passé un séjour agréable en famille. Les chambres sont spacieuses et bien équipées. Frigo bouilloire café thé sucre ...La piscine est propre. Le jardin est bien entretenu et la connexion Wi-Fi est très bonne. Merci beaucoup pour ce séjour
• Jessica (7/5): Neat and tidy farm stay, good stop over on the way to Savuti - Well put together farm stay. With a very personable host. Place is fairly new and has a dipping pool. Location didn’t feel as wild as other places, instead of antelope you have horses and cows. If you’re looking for something more remote or wild it may not be for you. Property is quite small and doesn’t allow any exploring.
• Alexander (10/5): Perfekt! - Sehr netter Gastgeber und super Essen. Eine absolut empfehlenswerte Adresse um zu bleiben mit tollem Pool.
• Maike (6/5): Für den Preis völlig okay. -
• Heinjochen (10/5): Freundlichkeit, Sauberkeit, Stille, Gastfreundschaft, Menschlichkeit - Für unsere Reise war das Destiny Blo Inn perfekt gelegen. Nach längerem übernachten in unserem Autozelt waren die Bungalows von Chimney und seiner Frau Priscilla ein kleines Schloss. Was aber direkt mit Ankunft im Blo Inn für uns doch überraschend außergewöhnlich war, dass Chimney uns sehr persönlich Willkommen hieß. Er erzählte uns vom entstehen seiner Lodge, wohin die Reise gehen soll mit seiner Lodge, von seinem Werdegang mit vielen Höhen und Tiefen, wie wichtig ihm das Zusammenleben von Mensch und Natur und wie wichtig ihm dabei der ökologische Aspekt ist. Jeden Tag wurde das kleine Häuschen gereinigt. Die Mitarbeiterinnen sind wie alle Menschen in Botswana super freundlich. Wenn wir wollten bekamen wir jeden Abend ein leckeres Essen und konnten mit Chimney über Gott und die Welt erzählen. Er ist aber auch ein sehr guter Guide! Mit ihm unternahmen wir einen Game Walk rund um dein zu Hause und lernten seine Nachbarn in ihren Lebensalltag kennen und er zeigte uns auf einem Tages Trip den Chobe NP rund um Savuti. Das Glück war und hold-3x an diesem Tag erlebten wir Löwen. Es war unser 6er im Lotto. Von Herzen wünschen wir ihm, seiner Familie und seinen Mitarbeitern, dass die Träume und Vorhaben wahr werden und sich noch viele viele Gäste bei ihm willkommen und wohl fühlen.
• Oliver Lynge (10/5): Best stay of our trip to Namibia. Lovely host grounded in the local community with excellent food from the area. Would r - Clean rooms, fast WiFi, friendly and helpful personel, good food.
• Toni (10/5): -
• Thierry (9/5): -
• Jessica (9/5): Loved our stay! - Comfortable accommodation and good value for money - the owner is very responsive and reliable and incredibly knowledgeable for game-drives. Just note that the price does not include any meals, transfers or activities.
• Ruby (9/5): Very lovely and calm accomondation - The safari was amazing, very dedicated staff, the bed was very comfy, in the bathroom was very nice shower soap, the staff cleaned the room in between our stay, the food was expensive but worth it (freshly made with vegetables) The bathroom had an electricity problem
• Winfried (10/5): Beste Unterkunft am Chobe Nationalpark - Das ist eine tolle Unterkunft, die beste im Hinblick auf das Preis- Leistungsverhältnis, die Freundlichkeit sowie die möglichen Pirschfahrten weit und breit im Gebiet des Chobe Nationalparks. Die Pirschfahrten mit Chimney waren die besten während unserer 4 monatigen Reise durch die Länder des südlichen Afrikas.
• Jean-Pierre (7/5): - Safari très intéressant du parc Chobe Sawuti avec le patron de l'Inn, Chimney, A faire absolument. Rien
• sheillah (9/5): Wonderful , people in Chobe live harmoniously with animals , They just walk freely in the streets with them - The place is so natural and clean with air conditioners Open outside dining area to feel air of the Chobe nature reserve
• Daniel (9/5): -
• mohit (10/5): - The staff is really great, and the host is welcoming. The food was excellent and the place is beautiful. All good.
• amilcar (10/5): -
• Amanda (10/5): Great place to stay! - What a great place to stay! The room was perfect with a comfortable bed, hot shower, all in a beautiful, quiet setting. The food was delicious. The property is set in a farming community and the owner is a local working with the community for sustainable balance between tourism and agriculture, the kind of place we try and support. Chimney (the owner) was the best guide we’ve had in 2+ months in Africa. His knowledge was incredible and included all birds, plus he spotted things we never would have and showed tremendous respect for the environment. Highly recommend!
• Arthur (10/5): Wonderful hospitality and activities - If I could give this place 20 stars I would. It was truly one of the nicest hotel experiences I have ever had and it is mostly thanks to the incredible host Chimney. He is a remarkable person and host. He helped us so much when we had a car break down and drove us across Savuti to Khwai (which is an incredible distance). I highly recommend staying here and booking meals and activities with Chimney. His game drives were fantastic and he has a great chef who makes wonderful food. The lodge itself is very simple and comfortable with a very reasonable price but the extras are what makes the place extraordinary. Chimney is also a community leader and many things that he is doing is to help his entire village. It is clear the lodge is a labor of love for him and he built it on the site of his grandmother's house.
• Sreedhar (8/5): -

• Stuart (10/5): Fantastic stop on route to Savuti, perfect stop and really affordable compared with everywhere else. - excellent stop on the way to Savuti. Chimney and his wife Prescilla were the perfect hosts. the food was great and Chimney joined us and shared his great knowledge of the area, really knowlegable and interesting ! Nothing
• Łukasz (10/5): Great stay! - Great host ,very helpful with great knowledge and tour guide Wide offer of additional activities - game trips ,horse riding Nice room with super comfy beds and private bathroom Nice bar and resting area with wi fi access
• Radchuk (10/5): Unforgettable Stay Near Chobe – A True Highlight of Our Trip - To visit Chobe National Park, we decided to stay a bit outside of Kazane, closer to nature, and chose Destiny Blo Inn. This turned out to be not just a good decision, it was a true jackpot. Chimney made our stay absolutely unforgettable. Travel is not only about nature, but also about people, and it’s the people who connect us to the local culture. Chimney not only shared insights about life in Botswana, but also organized the best game drive we’ve ever experienced: a 12-hour journey through Chobe with a breakfast and lunch break, all arranged by him. We had the time not just to see the animals, but to truly observe their lives in peace. Honestly, this experience even surpassed our impressions of Victoria Falls the day before. While the facilities may seem modest to some, the dedication and heart Chimney puts into his hosting are the real highlights—and they added incredible value to our journey.
• Stefano (10/5): Lovely farmer family! Our stay has been really nice and dinner very good! Well recommended -
• Calmac (10/5): Exceptional - We chose Destiny Blo Inn because it was within our budget & close to the Chobe Reserve for us to explore. We got far more than what we expected. Chimney has done a fantastic job at bridging the gap between tourists & locals. He’s wanting to share his love for wildlife with his neighbours & the tourists who come to visit. We did a full day safari with Chimney & his knowledge is incredible. He even stopped to ID insects & birds for us. 100% recommend you stay at the Destiny Blo Inn. The shared dinners and breakfast was a plus. Chimney was also incredibly kind to make us lunch on the day we arrived & took us to see the sunset.
• Sean (10/5): Exceptional -
• Charles (10/5): Exceptional -
• John (8/5): Very good -
• Justus (10/5): A gem in Chobe - 10/10 accommodation with a host who really knows how to take care of his guests. The entire staff will make sure you sleep well and eat good. Very knowledgable host, Chimney, that offers amazing activities and lets you experience the culture of Botswana as well as the game viewing of Botswana.
• Ruramayi (6/5): This is a fairly new establishment and has room to grow. Grateful for the owner who attended to us. - It was clean and comfortable. There was no wifi connection in the rooms except at the front desk and dining area. There was no hot water in one of the rooms we booked though the owner tried to fix it.
• Sabrina (10/5): Super nice location with a lodge feeling! We really enjoyed our stay and the conversation with the owner. We had dinner - The food and the owner :) Nothing :) everything was great :)
• Luc (9/5): Superb - Nice place, conveniently located close to Chobe Park. Excellent value for money compared to most other options around. Host has a clear vision on how to create value for both the local farmers and the tourists visiting.
• Christoph (10/5): perfect place to stay near Chobe park - Perfect location, everything you need, a haven of civilization after leaving the nature park; one of the kindest hosts I ever encountered
• Derek (9/5): Superb -
• Nadeem (9/5): Superb - The owner Mr. Chimney was very welcoming and hospitable. He went the extra mile to cook dinner, offered horse riding and a game drive.
• Torben (10/5): Super helpful with a warm african welcoming. You will fell home apart from home - The manager and owner of the accommodation was exceptionally helpful and service orientated. We were warmly welcomed and dinner was prepared for us (although we had forgotten to book it). During breakfast and dinner we had very nice conversations with the owner Chimney, which were of great value for the rest of the trip. As an experienced guide from the Chobe region, Chimney was able to give us lots of tips and suggestions. Thanks to his good network, he was also able to spontaneously organise various activities such as a boat trip and a horse riding excursion. I can highly recommend this new accommodation, even if it is in a somewhat rural area. It was perfect for me and my friends as the location allowed us to visit both the north and south of Chobe National Park. Just joking: As we left there was a glass window in the way. It turns out, a friend of mine didn't see it and just ran into a window 😅
• Victoria (10/5): Excellent place! Near the parks! Delicious food - Amazing place to stay in and visit the parks. Well located near to Chobe’s Park and Savuti. We got the dinner with traditional food, it was delicious! Everything is new, the bed is comfortable and king size! Amazing place for self drivers who are looking for a hot shower and good food and rest!!!
