Chobe National Park
Chobe National Park is the most accessible and frequently visited of Botswana’s wildlife reserves. The Chobe River is most famous for its large herds of elephants which during the dry winter months converge upon the river to drink. On a Chobe River boat cruise wildlife from a different perspective, where herds of animals converge on – or even in - the water to drink; hippos and crocodiles are right there below you or on the banks and the birdlife is sensational. Open-sided boats provide superb photographic opportunities.
Within the park itself wildlife abounds. Aside from the finest opportunity ever to witness the greatest elephant population density in Africa, expect to see antelope species, kudu, roan, sable and impala plus warthog giraffe, monkeys and baboons along with the accompanying predators - lion, leopard, hyena and jackal.

TRAVELER TESTIMONIAL
The experience far exceeded any expectations we had. The experience of the guides, the comfort of the lodges and the vast number of animals that we got to sit and enjoy at length were all more than we expected.
We were glad we left Vic Falls for the end. The Victoria Falls River Lodge was beautiful and having the river to ride on was a great feature. I’m definitely glad we didn’t stay in town.
We surely appreciate all you did for us in preparation for this trip. It was a trip of a lifetime!
