Chobe Overnight Camping safaris

I took a 6 night camping safari with Moonlight in September 2026. Chobe-Savuti-Mababe-Khwai- Maun. Overall I can say this is a no frills operator and experience did not match with some of the other reviews on Tripadvisor. I had good sightings in Chobe and Savuti, but other drives after that felt rushed. Food was good on the trip and the tent was more comfortable than expected, but camp set-up each day was not as well organised as other operators we met on route and there were several delays. It was satisfactory.

We enjoyed the boat cruise on the Chobe River. Our visit to Vic falls was what an amazing experience. Our gam drive and over night visit in Savuti...

PROS: Our guide went out of his way to ensure a productive and safe trip. We saw TONS of elephants and giraffes in Chobe National Park. When we ran into trouble, our guide made sure everything was alright. He was flexible to accommodate our unexpected change of plans. CONS: Moonlight was an alternative local guide during the pandemic. He made changes to the accommodations and expectations listed in our itinerary. We were supposed to stay in a full tented camp but he found an alternative camp site that was a better deal. We like camping but it was not what we paid for. We got the river boat ride that was on the itinerary but it was with a boat of locals, which was a better deal. Overall: Good value for the most amazing experience with elephants!

We did a three days and two nights Safari in the Chobe National Park that was totally amazing !!! We had a real bush camping experience with really good materials for sleeping, shower and toilets. The car is also very reliable. Bogosi was a very professional and caring guide that explains us a lot of things about wildlife and nature. Victor was a very funny and good cook ! The vegetarian option was also very good. We said to Bogosi that we really would like to see Leopard and he says it’s nature so we can’t decide but he looked a lot and finally day 2 in the morning we saw one crossing just behind the car which was totally amazing !! As he says « Chobe will never desapoint you » ! We saw many lions, girafes, elephants, beautiful birds and rapace and many many more ! Sunrise and sunset game drive are fantastic! The boat tour is also very nice because it shows something else than the game drive so it worth it to do both. We also have done the Victoria Falls transfer with this company and it was perfect : they helped with the border crossing, bring us in a cheaper place than the restaurant in the Vic Falls ... Thanks a lot Moonlight Safari for this awesome safari and transfer to Vic Falls and we hope to come back one day !!!

We had a wonderful time, saw many animals including lions and hyena close to our camp. The guides were very professional and meals were lovely. Would not hesitate to book again. Was a real highlight for our trip to kasane.
