Upon arrival in the small town of Kasane, your guide will brief you in regard to the preparation of the tour, the dos, and don’ts as well as the optional tours.

Chobe River forms an integral part of the Botswana safari experience and combines easily with the Okavango, Moremi Game Reserve, Okavango Delta, and the Kalahari. The day will be kick-started by an afternoon boat cruise in order to marvel at the aquatic bird life of the Chobe River with the hope of seeing the last remaining population of elephants grazing and swimming the Chobe River as well as seeing lions in pursuit of their prey.
