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.

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.

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.

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.

Never seen so much elephants together!
Overall rating

We went to Chobe in December of 2014, and it was wonderful! We did a lot of other Safaris in Africa, including Kruger and Etosha, but in Chobe we could see much more Elephants. When I say "a lot", I mean dozen of them together, crossing in front of the car, or in the back, elephants so close to us that we could even touch them (of course we didn't!!). Other than Elephants, we saw a lot of Hippos, Buffalos, Giraffes and Impalas. I am not a bird expert, but there was a bunch of them too, including the Lilac Breasted Roller, national bird of Botswana.
The landscape is amazing, and watching the sunset in a boat cruise in Chobe River is a great experience! Bring some beers and Savana Dry with you, and stay there enjoying the beauty of that place, watching some crocodiles and hippos in the water, and elephants bathing theirselves.
