Trip Itinerary

Day 1 - Chobe

 
Chobe National Park (LD).
Private Car Services

We depart Kazangula Border Post between 08h30 and 09h00 and proceed to Kasane for the opportunity to purchase any personal beverages, as there are no shops within the park.

River Cruises

After a short briefing, we commence on an exhilarating 3 hour boat cruise into the Chobe National Park, easily one of the highlights of this trip. From aboard the boat, one gets the opportunity to get up close and personal with fantastic birdlife, hippo, crocodiles and of course, scores of elephant and Cape buffalo that make their way down to the river to quench their thirst.

Safari

On arrival at 'white sands' you will be welcomed by your guide for the remainder of your safari and proceed to do a game drive to our wilderness campsite. After a hearty lunch and some time to settle into your tents we embark on an afternoon game drive, this being the best time of day to see Chobe's large herbivores making their way down to the river.

Food and Dining

We return to camp shortly after sunset for dinner and evening drinks around the camp fire.


Day 2 - Chobe

 
Chobe National Park (BD).
Safari

This morning we wake you at dawn with a friendly Botswana 'dumela' (good day) with warm water in your basins, to freshen up. After a quick cup of tea or coffee, we head off on an early morning game drive. This is the best time of day for searching for the big cats as they are still active and chances of seeing them are good.

Food and Dining

Around mid morning we return to camp for a delicious 'bush brunch', followed by a siesta to escape the heat of the day.

Safari

As it starts to cool off, we head out for another afternoon game drive in search of further wildlife activity. Chobe National Park has a wide variety of game from cats to large herbivores with elephant and buffalo being a highlight. However there are also the rarer game like puku and roan antelope, along with many more common antelope on offer too.

Camping

Once again return to camp after sunset for dinner and to reflect on the day whilst being accompanied by the unforgettable sounds of the African night.


Day 3 - Praslin Island

 
Chobe National Park (B).

Another 'dumela' dawn wake up and after a scrumptious cooked breakfast we ensure all your luggage is securely packed before heading out of the park on our final game drive.
