Welcome to Chobe, Botswana’s first national park and one of Africa’s most iconic safari destinations. Known for its legendary elephant herds and spectacular riverfront game viewing, Chobe is where untamed nature unfolds in grand, unforgettable scenes—especially at golden hour, when the Chobe River comes alive with wildlife.
closer look at
Located in the country’s northeast and bordering Namibia, Zimbabwe, and Zambia, Chobe is a diverse and dramatic wilderness that offers a front-row seat to Africa’s raw beauty. Its most famous region, the Chobe Riverfront, is a magnet for elephants—sometimes in herds of hundreds—as well as buffalo, lions, hippos, and incredible birdlife. But Chobe is more than just its river: head south to Savuti, and you enter predator territory—where lions hunt elephants and leopards stalk in silence. It's wild, unpredictable, and utterly captivating.
Get inspired
Chobe is safari heaven for both first-timers and wildlife veterans. You get the best of both worlds—land and water safaris, massive game concentrations, and easy access to Victoria Falls. It’s also perfect for those short on time but big on expectations. The park’s accessibility doesn’t take away from its authenticity—Chobe delivers powerful, real-deal African moments, with the bonus of luxurious lodges along the river.
Chobe offers a range of stays—from romantic riverfront lodges with infinity pools to tented bush camps near Savuti. All accommodations are designed to bring you closer to the wild, with expert guides and effortless comfort.
