Your safari begins with pickup from Kasane Airport, Victoria Falls, or Livingstone and a transfer to Chobe Safari Lodge. Settle in before heading out on an afternoon sunset cruise along the Chobe River. From the boat, look for elephants coming down to drink, hippos surfacing in the shallows, and crocodiles resting along the banks.
