Tsumkwe Tucsin Lodge

Visitors to TUCSIN Tsumkwe Lodge will not only be able to experience the ancient and unique culture of the San community but will also be contributing to the improved livelihoods of the local San people. With its proximity to the Nyae Nyae Pans and Khaudum National Park, Tsumkwe is still a wilderness paradise, off the beaten track!

Indeed, the San community can no longer survive exclusively by hunting and gathering thus, they require a local perspective for education and training. It is of cardinal importance to integrate community members and in particular the Ju/’hoan San Bushmen, who live in the Nyae Nyae Conservancy. It requires a well-informed approach with respect for the precious – but rare – value systems of traditional hunter-gatherer societies.

The rustic lodge is situated in Tsumkwe. 22 twin cabins are arranged on the spacious premises linking up with the camping sites and the restaurant-lapa. Our large outdoor shaded boma is the ideal place for special events, cultural entertainment and delicious meals prepared over the BBQ by our experienced chefs.
