The safari in Chobe National Park was fantastic! We saw lions, hippos, giraffes & crocodiles day 1.

Chobe National Park is a gem! Our guides were very patient and knew a lot about animals. We drove in open jeeps and had great access to photograph the beautiful birds and wild-life that we saw.
The park is teeming with life! We witnessed a pregnant giraffe, playful baboons, kissing hippos, grazing elephants ( swimming elephants, nursing elephants - over 200,000 elephants in Botswana) an angry lion and many impalas and kudus. The scenery was lush and green and the Chobe river was full of fabulous surprises like hippos and crocodiles! Do go!

I was there at the end of dry season so the real action is at the water.

River safaris are something unique you can enjoy here and in Okavango Delta. Approaches to wild animals could be very close and dawn in Chobe river provide amazing colors.

The Wildlife here is absolutely amazing! The narula beauty, especially by the Chobe River is excellent. Birding is just as great here. It is a popular destination though, and many tourists visit this park, but you will still experience a great bush vibe here.

Great accommodations, tons of wildlife, and managed very well. There is a reason that it is a popular destination, as all of these things are done well.

I saw so many animals nearly every moment of every day while staying at the lodge. The location and views were spectacular! This was definitely not a "touristy" place, but was very safe and accommodating to us tourists.

Boatsafari on Chobe river 2 gamedrives in park, 6 gamedrives in Elephant Camp

4 / 5 4 /5
5 / 5 4 / 5 4 / 5 5 / 5

Game is very diverse and abundant in both locations. Well organized drives, perfect knowledgeble guides and drivers. Exept for rhino's we came across all kinds of species also very rare-ones. Accommodation meets reasonable standard. Staff friendlyness could be subject to improvement in Safari Inn, but was perfect in Elephant Camp. It should be stressed more clearly that luggage weight is limited to 12 kilo's when using airtransport to remote camps in tiny 6-seaters. All in all the best value for money in all safari's experienced in Africa, inc. South Africa and Kenya.
