Renting Chobe Safari Lodge, a 5-star internationally recognised facility does not come cheap. Strategically located on the plush greenery of the banks of River Nile as it snakes it’s way northwards in Murchison Falls National Park, Chobe Safari Lodge is a gem with scenic views and heavy population of several wild animals in their natural habitat living in perfect harmony with the luxurious facility.
So, how much did it cost Kanye West? Here are the numbers. Chobe Safari Lodge has 36 guest rooms (Standards at $397 a day [Shs1.5m] and deluxe at $450 [Shs1.7m]), 21 luxury tents with the most expensive tent at nearly $600[Shs2.2m] a night.
It has 4 suites with the most expensive suite at $600[Shs2.2m], a presidential cottage where Kanye is reportedly staying at nearly $1,000[Shs3.7m] a night ($935[Shs3.5m] per night) and a family banda at $700[Shs2.6m] a night.
It also has a spa, swimming pool , gym and a helipad. In total, these are about 63.
In quick mathematics, let’s say the average price with all activities per suite at $700[Shs2.6m] multiply 63 then by 7 days. That’s a total of $308,700. (About Shs1,173,060,000).
