Chobe National Park

Established in 1968, Chobe National Park covers approximately 11,700 sq km, encompassing floodplains, swamps and woodland. The Chobe River forms the park's northern boundary, which includes four distinct geographical areas: the Chobe Riverfront: the Ngwezumba pans; Savuté; and Linyanti. The national park takes its name from the Chobe River which, at first glance is guaranteed to take your breathe away. Chobe National Park is the third largest in Botswana but it has one of the largest concentrations of rare game animals in the continent of Africa.

During the winter, you may see hundreds of elephants at one time in the Chobe National Park. The main Serondella Road sometimes becomes impassable as scores of family herds cross the main road to make their way to the river to drink, bathe and play. You can take a river cruise – and you'll experience the park and wildlife from a different vantage point, getting up closer to hippos, crocodiles and a mind-boggling array of water birds than you ever would on land. Over 460 bird species have been recorded in the Chobe National Park, making it one of Africa's premier venues for bird safaris.
