Chobe National Park, Botswana

Botswana Dreams

What To Expect

Chobe National Park is a true wildlife paradise and one of the best national parks in Southern Africa. Just one peek at the variety of wildlife and lush vegetation and you will be mesmerized forever!

The gateway to Chobe is Kasane, a small town near the borders of Zimbabwe, Zambia, and Namibia.

Chobe National Park is extremely lush because of the many waterways. The Chobe River flows through the park and draws many animals and birds during the dry season.
Boat cruises and game drives along the river are very popular. The natural environment of the park allows for excellent photographic experiences.

It’s known for its large herds of elephants and Cape buffalo, which converge along the Chobe Riverfront in the dry months. Lions, antelopes, and hippos inhabit the woods and lagoons around Linyanti Marsh. The floodable grasslands of the Savuti Marsh attract numerous bird species, plus migrating zebras.
