Overview

The lovely Onguma Forest Camp, formerly known as Etosha Aoba Lodge, is found in a Tamboti forest on the private Onguma Reserve, a 340 square kilometre paradise only 15 minutes from the eastern gate into Etosha National Park. Onguma Forest Camp offers visitors the opportunity to explore both of these protected areas! 

Accommodation in true Namibian style has recently been upgraded and renovated to offer visitors 11 stylish rooms built along the dry ‘Omuramba Owambo’ riverbed. Honeymoon couples will love the romantic honeymoon chalet with its outdoor shower on the private balcony and bathtub. Three newly established Explorer Bungalows boast private patios, air-conditioning, en-suite facilities and stunning views into the bush.

All guests meet at the communal swimming pool in the heat of the day and the thatched bar is the place to be for sundowners. The guest dining room with an attractive terrace looks over the active waterhole – watch wildlife in comfort. Sip a new wine from the wine cellar in the corner, a comfy corner for respite from a hectic day of viewing game! Those seeking solitude can sit in the library with a book about Namibia.

Most visitors use Onguma Etosha Aoba as a base for their own drives into Namibia’s Etosha National Park. Onguma Etosha Aoba can also organise morning game drives in open vehicles with professional guides. Evenings are set aside for night drives into the Onguma Reserve, a different perspective on the Namibian landscape.
