Chobe National Park Safaris

What You Need to Know About Chobe National Park

As the sun dips below the horizon, the Chobe River glows in shades of gold and crimson, reflecting the silhouettes of elephants wading through the water. Nowhere else in Africa can you witness such vast herds, with more than 50,000 of them calling Chobe National Park home. Here, hundreds of these giants gather along the riverbanks at a time, their trunks raised in greeting as hippos yawn lazily nearby.

A Chobe river safari offers a front-row seat to the rhythm of the wild, where crocodiles slide silently beneath the surface, and fish eagles cry out from the treetops. On land, lions prowl the floodplains and elusive leopards move through the shadows. A Chobe National Park safari will introduce you to a place of abundance, where the river breathes life into the wilderness, and every moment feels like magic.

The nearby Okavango Delta is a wonder in its own right, but many lodges are not always accessible. Chobe is a year-round wetland paradise, and a Chobe National Park safari in Botswana offers spectacular safari opportunities and easy access to the majestic Victoria Falls. No journey to Botswana is complete without a sunset cruise on the Chobe River, and no location on Earth can match its proliferation of African elephants.

Where Is Chobe National Park?

Chobe is in northern Botswana, along the Chobe River, which forms the border with Namibia. A Chobe Okavango Delta safari is easily accessible and definitely recommended to experience a multitude of safari styles.

After exploring Chobe National Park on game drives and boat trips, head to the Okavango to see this incredible feat of nature. A quieter, more secluded experience compared to Chobe, you can meander down the waterways of the delta in a traditional mokoro, giving another dimension to your safari experience.

From organising your Chobe safari lodge to planning your transfers, Discover Africa is with you every step of the way.

Why Chobe?

  • Elephant Capital of Africa: Chobe National Park is home to the largest concentration of elephants on the continent, often seen in massive herds.
