Welcome to the unspoilt safari playground

Welcome to the unspoilt safari playground

Chobe Game Lodge is one of the most famous lodges in Botswana and the only permanent lodge located within the renowned Chobe National Park. This privileged location allows guests to be the first to enter the park every morning and the last to leave, providing photographers with a significant advantage. An incredible 250-meter boardwalk runs along the river and forms the focus of the lodge. Walking along the promenade or finding a seat along its length, gives guests a chance to peacefully (barring the grunting hippos) observe the wildlife without even getting into a car or boat. One of the most awe-inspiring safari experiences is the up-close and personal meetings with wildlife at Chobe National Park, and we can assure you that you will have them frequently during your visit. Welcome to the park, which has some of the highest game density in all of Africa.
