Chobe River Front
The Chobe River forms the northern boundary of the Chobe National Park which is renowned for its diverse and abundant game viewing opportunities. This section of the park is best known for its dense concentration of wildlife, including elephant and hippo populations, but the waters attract all manner of game including large herds of buffalo and the lions that prey on them - a visit to the Chobe River Front guarantees close encounters with an array of African wildlife. Visitors can look forward to a range of exciting activities such as 4WD along the banks; motorboat cruises; and rare birdlife spotting. For a unique, luxury safari experience, hire a houseboat.
Day Itinerary
This morning after a last activity in the Delta (if time allows) you will fly by light aircraft transfer to Kasane, which is the town close to the Chobe National Park and on to your lodge for the night
You have 1x activity included. Enjoy optional extra activities at your own leisure and as time allows. A boat cruise on the Chobe River is recommended
Overnight: Chobe Safari Lodge
If you want to experience the Chobe River and the Chobe National Park then you'll want to stay at Chobe Safari Lodge, in Kasane, Botswana.
Chobe Safari Lodge sits on the edge of the Chobe River (as the name would suggest), but that also means that it borders four countries! Pretty impressive, if its location to Chobe National Park, itself wasn't.
This is quite a romantic spot, while you can see it is decorated in a traditional safari style; the pool, room service and private cruises tell a different, more luxurious story.
Here you can stay in a variety of accommodation such as suites, rooms, bungalows and even camping. The accommodation is a little less fabulous than the private cruise waiting for you, but we can let it slide. The rooms are very simple with double beds, a desk and an en-suite, but unfortunately no mini-fridge and water (something you expect if you don't want to run to the bar each time for a glass of water.) However there is a TV, WiFi and as we mentioned before, room service.
But let's be fair, if you come all this way you are not going to be spending much of your time in the room anyway. Outside you have a huge pool waiting for you, an open plan restaurant overlooking the pool and that gorgeous view of the river and a small island opposite that would make anyone back at home jealous. When you go have dinner, make sure to dive into a Kudu steak, it's the best one you will ever have.
There is also a little shop, a health and beauty salon and cocktail bar for your to indulge in with gifts, a new holiday (or honeymoon) look and a fancy drink on top of it all just because you deserve it.
With this picture-perfect view and never-ending river, we won't forgive you if you are just sitting at the pool all day. Make sure to tackle land and water with that private boat cruise or a game drive to spot the iconic Chobe elephants. If you are tempted by what's around the corner you can even book an overnight or day trip to go to the Victoria Falls.
It is worth the mention that Chobe Safari Lodge is the oldest one in the region, so while some small details may be out of date (and style) other things have just been perfected, including the decor in the rooms more recently refurbished. Here it's all about the safari experience and you're bound to have one of the most memorable safari experiences by far.
