Kesmo Lodge is a School-Hotel in the center of Maun, in Botswana. It has all the classic amenities of a lodge, but doubles as a training ground for students of tourism from the school  Career Dreams Centre. It is the perfect place to do your bit as a responsible traveller before heading into the Okavango Delta.

Easy to find, the Lodge with the Elephant at the main entrance

The students work in all the different posts so they get real hands on experience in reception, the kitchen, as guides … Working more with tourists provides an invaluable experience to them.

The general manager of Kesmo Lodge was also a student from Career Dreams Centre, and does an excellent professional job.
