The best part of this park, compared to other great parks in Africa, is the landscape. Concerning animals, it is the best place to see elephants that I know.
Good organisation, guides and food with Kananga.
Do not miss the boat at the sunset, you really dont know where to look at.

Memories forever - elephants and hippos eating on the riverbank, a few meters only from our boat! Croqs, lions, giraffes, every wild animal you can wish to see. Amazing place. Best safari(s) we've done.

With an experienced guide and camping in the park, we had immediate access to the animals and scenery immediately.

Chobe is one of the eaier Safari parks where the roads are easily passable and the wildlife is plentiful. We stayed at Senyati just outside the park, which had an excellent waterhole complete with a hide so that you could get close to the elephants who came to drink in the evenings.

The elephants and birdlife were spectacular with a trip along the Chobe river being an unmissable experience.

My father, husband and I traveled to Chobe National Park in April 2015. It was our first trip to Africa, and we stayed three nights at Muchenje Safari Lodge. It truly was an amazing experience. I couldn't have imagined the wildlife we would see or how close we would get to elephant and buffalo herds, lions, giraffes, zebras, hippos, crocodiles, lizards, baboons, monkeys, warthogs and antelopes. I also have never seen so many beautiful, colorful birds including the southern carmine bee-eater, lilac-breasted roller and wire-tailed swallow. While we were there we went on early morning, full day and sunset game drives as well as a river cruise. Our guide, Synack, was very knowledgable and respectful of the animals and the park. April was the perfect time to travel. There weren't that many people, and we couldn't have asked for better weather. There only was one brief rain shower while we were there, and when it was over the sun came out and we saw a full rainbow. Chobe National Park is a place that touches your soul. I wouldn't hesitate to come back.

Amazing elephant river crossings

Guide was great. The boat ride on the river was an amazing way to see the wildlife from a different perspective. Wildlife was a bit scarce but we did have two river crossings to watch with elephants which was the key highlight. Great sunsets. Chobe Elephant Camp was great, the staff were very accommodating.

I never saw so many elephants and hippos outside the water like there - even at 12.00 a.m.
But I saw many other animals too - much more than on my safari trips in South Africa and Namibia.
