Beautiful trip to Chobe and Okavango Delta
Overall rating
5/5

The Chobe Safari Lodge we would not book again, because it was too big for us, but it was not bad.The food was not as we were used to from other lodges before (in Namibia) and unfortunately, the dinner buffet colsed at 08:30 pm. From the game drives we came back around 6:30 pm. To come still on time for dinner, after a shower etc., was then almost stressful.
The organization of the game drives and boat trips was well organized and we liked it.
The Oddballs Camp we liked very much. It is a very simple camp, but the care was great, the food was good and we had everything we needed.
The tour for camping we also would not book any more. Too many efforts with tent building dismantle, cook yourself etc. The camp itself offers the same natural experiences. Therefore, it is not necessary to accept this simplicity in order to achieve even more natural experiences.
All in all it was a very great experience and everything worked out wonderfully with Zambezi Safari and Travel Company. The communication with Liz was uniquely good. Thanks to the whole Team.

Botswana would never be described as a green country. There are great expanses of land that are simply a desert. But it's very beautiful in its bareness and so rich of wonderful wildlife. Keep your eyes out for animals as you drive along. There's a great chance you'll see an elephant or a giraffe just hanging out along the side of the road.

Also while you'll meet other tourists, most of the time you'll feel like there are no other tourist but you and the people travelling with you.

I visited the Delta and Chobe; both a great destinations. For my experience Chobe was much better for wildlife but the bush vibe was extraordinary in the delta. Both parks offer very beautiful scenery and are excellent fit bird watching.

We saw many animals on our game drive in Chobe National Park on our first evening. The sunset over the Chobe River is fantastic and so is the herds of elephants crossing the Chobe River.

Botswana seems to really understand conservation through eco-tourism. Our guides helped us understand and uphold the ethos, "take only photographs, leave only footprints," which enhanced not diminished our experience. I'd love to return.

Chobe National Park was the the quintessential Safari Park...saw all animals up close and personal!
Overall rating
5/5

We camped in the park for 2 nights and 3 full days....very rustic but amazing. We had elephants walk right past our tents and there was a wart hog in our camp one morning. The most amazing sight was two massive lionesses chasing down a cape buffalo and taking him down while a pride of 15 lions waited for the kill and then came in for the feast! Our guide was fabulous.
