2 Days and 1Night Camping Safari

At 7.30am, we depart from your Victoria Falls Hotel or Livingstone for Chobe National park. This is a one hour drive that should see us at the Botswana border at about 0830hrs. We meet our Botswana Guides at the border and after border formalities and briefings, we head for the Chobe river jetty.

At 9:30, guests board the boat and commence a 3-hour boat game cruise into the Chobe National park. The river cruise is considered one of the highlights of the trip, as one gets the opportunity to get up close and personal with fantastic birdlife, hippos, crocodiles, and of course scores of elephant and African buffalo that make their way down to the river for the water. The boat cruise ends at 12:30 and a sumptuous buffet lunch follows at the Chobe Safari Lodge (or similar).

There is an opportunity to do some last minute shopping in Kasane, as there are no shops within the Park.

An afternoon game drive follows and this is the best time to see Chobe’s large herbivores making their way to and from the river to drink. This drive will take us to the camp shortly before sunset for drinks around the campfire and dinner.

Rise and shine, early wake-up with a cup of hot and refreshing tea and/or coffee. After a quick continental breakfast, we head off on an early morning game drive. This time of the day is best for finding the big cats and other nocturnal species as they are still active and hunting. With luck, we may even find them on their previous nights` kills.

Around mid to late morning we return to camp for a delicious “bush brunch” and an opportunity to take a refreshing bush bucket shower.

When the day starts to cool off we pack up, break camp and leave the camp on the last game drive, to be dropped off in Kasane at 4:30 pm (for those of our guests staying in Botswana) and in Victoria Falls or Livingstone at 6:00 pm.
