The lodge
activities revolve around game viewing by vehicle and boat into The Chobe National Park. Chobe
is a hot, dry region and for most of the year the wildlife is
dependent on the river for water, making for truly spectacular
game drives and boat cruises. Elephants are seen in their hundreds
and buffalo in their thousands. Lions are an almost daily
sighting, as are
impala, sable antelope, giraffe, warthog and numerous other
species. Traditionally, early morning game drives and late
afternoon boat cruises are safari routine; we are more flexible.
We know from experience a herd of bull elephants drinks in the
middle of the day before swimming across the Chobe to feed in
Namibia. If guests particularly want to see swimming elephants,
we are happy to change the routine by taking the boat in the
middle of the day and a game drive in the late evening. This
flexibility is not possible in the bigger lodges
The Chobe
River is a tributary of the mighty Zambezi River, home to the
famed tiger fish. We supply all the tackle needed to catch
these monsters, but respectfully request guests to practise catch
& release. |
