Description

Chobe National Park This is a full-day game viewing safari and river safari in the Chobe National Park. Because you are picked up at 7 am, this is the choicest time to encounter some of the big cats and nocturnal animals on the 1-hour drive to the border through the Zambezi National Park. You will be at the Chobe National Park shortly after 9am to start the day with half-day game drive in the park. This is the best time to see big cats, as they will still be active and hunting. The drive will continue until your break for lunch about noon. Lunch will be at the Chobe Safari Lodge (or similar) followed by the afternoon river safari on the Chobe River. This is a 3-hour cruise starting in the afternoon and ending around 4:00 pm. The cruise affords a chance to encounter elephants, hippos, giraffes,zebras and birds. You will be at the Zimbabwe border around 4:30pm for the 45 mile (70km) transfer to your Victoria Falls hotel. You will be back to your hotel around 6:00pm.

Unforgettable safari through Chobe Park

We hired the agency Savvanah Adventures for the excursions and transfers through the parks of Victoria Falls and 2 days through Chobe Park. The organization was excellent. The safari in Chobe was, without a doubt, the best part of the trip. In addition, spending a night camping at their campsite was an experience that my children loved.

****Chobe Extended Day Trip is a MUST you won't regret it****

This trip all be it a long day was fantastic. We were picked up at our hotel at 5.00am and driven to the boarder at Botswana to enter Chobe Game Park. Our adventure started on this hour long ride seeing jackal's hyena and a leopard on the way. The whole day we were with guides who knew their stuff, how to find / hunt out the animals if they weren't showing themselves. We saw so many animals in their natural habitat. With the extended time there is no waiting at the borders to get through. You are ahead of the rest. You also get longer on the land safari as well as on the water. As you stay until sunset it's like two tours day safari and sunset cruise all rolled into one. Breakfast and lunch is provided on the tour. Thank you to the amazing staff at Savannah Adventures for such an incredible day. This tour is well worth the extra time and money. I would highly recommend it. :)

Perfect day in Chobe

Chobe Experience with Savannah Adventures Chobe was truly the highlight of our many unforgettable adventures in Africa! Matt was our online contact and answered all our questions patiently — thanks to him, we ended up booking all our tours with Savannah Adventures. Eddie, our driver to the border, was friendly, knowledgeable, and shared fascinating insights about the area. Our land safari was simply incredible — while other jeeps chose a different route, we were rewarded with the rare sight of a leopard on his morning hunt and a pride of lions feeding on a kudu carcass. It was nature in its purest form — breathtaking beauty and raw reality side by side. We saw hundreds of elephants, giraffes, antelopes, and buffalos. The river safari was the perfect contrast — calm and magical — as we floated past elephants splashing in the water, hippos yawning in the sun, crocodiles lurking on the banks, and countless birds overhead. A must-do experience that exceeded every expectation — unforgettable from start to finish!

Chobe experience with Savannah Adventures

Chobe was truly the highlight of our many amazing adventures in Africa! Eddie, our driver to the boarder was friendly & very informative about the surrounding area. On our land safari we saw a leopard out on his morning hunt, a family of lions feeding on a carcass, 100’s of elephants, giraffes, antelopes & buffalos. The river safari was beautiful & relaxing . We got incredibly close to elephants playing in the water & saw many hippos ,crocodiles & birds. This is a must do tour, that far exceeded our expectations!!

Awesome safari and outing

Awesome experience visiting Chobe today for a safari and tiger fishing outing with Savannah Adventures. They went the extra mile to help celebrate a special birthday and all tour operators involved were very friendly and professional. We will definitely use them again. We saw so much wildlife and even some lion cubs with a kill. Special thank you to Eddy!

The game drive was amazing, seeing the lions with our own eyes was spectacular!!!

I just returned from an incredible trip to Chobe National Park with Savannah Adventures, and I can't stop smiling! The best part? We got to see a pride of lions lounging in the shade—absolutely stunning! Our guide was super knowledgeable and made the experience even better. We also spotted elephants and colorful birds along the way. The accommodations were cozy, and the food was delicious. If you're looking for an unforgettable wildlife adventure, I highly recommend checking out Savannah Adventures. You won't regret it! 🌍❤️

Disappointing safari experience

I was mostly disappointed with the land portion of this tour. The vehicle used was a modified pickup truck with tiered seating in the back, not a safari truck, which made it hard for the guide to communicate with us unless he physically left the cab. I ended up pointing out many of the animals myself for the group and the guide only pointed out about 3. Several times, the vehicle was driven to intentionally get in the way of elephants, including a mother and baby, which made our group uncomfortable. At one point, the driver navigated over rocks near the water’s edge and almost tipped the truck over into the water. Some tips: the park bathrooms don't have toilet paper or soap and don't flush. The guide only provides a snack and drink about 30 minutes before lunch so bring your own. The boat holds about 20 people and doesn't have a bathroom. The pros: I saw a wide variety of animals in a very short period of time. The buffet restaurant we ate at was very nice and had normal bathrooms.

Operator response

Dear Guest, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback regarding your Chobe Day Trip. We’re sorry to hear that parts of the land safari did not meet your expectations. At Savannah Adventures, we work only with licensed operators in Chobe National Park who use standard open 4x4 safari vehicles approved by the park authorities. These vehicles are designed for wildlife viewing, although communication style and guiding quality can vary between guides. We take your comments regarding driving and wildlife interactions seriously. Respect for animals and guest safety is a top priority, and such concerns are not in line with our standards. We will follow up with our partners to review this. Chobe National Park is a remote and wild environment, and facilities inside the park can be basic. We always recommend guests bring personal essentials for comfort during the day. That said, we’re glad you were able to see a wide variety of wildlife and enjoyed the river safari and lunch experience. We truly value your feedback, as it helps us continue improving our guest experience. Warm regards, Matt & the Savannah Adventures Team

Incredible

If you are in Victoria Falls I would definitely highly recommend Chobe day trip. Savannah Adventures ensured we were picked up on time. Border formalities were easy. (We needed copy of our 17 year old's birth certificate - so remember that if you are bringing any under 18"s.). Kasa visa if you can get one makes things easier and cheaper. The Chobe is awsome. Photos can't always capture the majesty of the place. Amimals all around, including lion! Lunch was great and boat trip amazing. Fantastic day thanks to Savannah Adventures.
