CHOBE NATIONAL PARK

Savute Elephant Camp
Savute Elephant Camp is located in the Savute Marsh, a rich wildlife haven with an abundance of elephants, predators and other plains game.  The marsh is well-known for its superb game viewing and bird life.  Guests here may also visit ancient rock paintings attributed to early Bushmen.

The camp accommodations are 12 luxury tents of canvas under thatch with lovely, en-suite bathrooms.  Each tent also has a private deck overlooking the floodplains.  Other facilities include a heated swimming pool, satellite phones on request and a fully stocked bar.

Activities include game drives in 4x4 vehicles and scenic flights (helicopter or fixed-wing - at extra charge).  Herds of migrating zebras and wildebeests appear in the thousands in December with the onset of the rains.

Savute Safari Lodge
Savute Safari Lodge in located along the southern end of the now-dry Savuti Channel, near the famous Savute Marsh.  The lodge accommodates just 24 guests in 12 contemporary-design safari suites, well suited for the dry, hot climate in this region.  A large swimming pool with viewing deck is perfect for relaxing mid-day.

Game viewing here is nothing short of spectacular.  The dry channel now sustains a variety of herbivores and predators.  The nearby Gubatsa Hills contain early San rock paintings that are well worth seeing.

Wildlife includes lion, leopard, cheetah, wild dog, giraffe, impala, zebra, kudu and large herds of buffalos.  The area is also outstanding for birding.

Chobe Chilwero
Chobe Chilwero is located on the eastern border of Chobe National Park, only 1.5 hours drive from Victoria Falls.  The lovely lodge at Chilwero has an incredible vantage point above the Chobe River, offering sweeping views across the river and islands all the way north to Namibia.

Comfort and elegance are the main ingredients here, with gourmet food, delicious wines and elegance all around.  Accommodation is in 15 luxury cottages, each over 60 square meters in size.  The main lodge includes a beautifully furnished lounge and dining room with an adjoining, outdoor viewing deck.  Spa treatments are also available.

Game viewing in Chobe and guided river boat trips are on offer, as well as fishing safaris, sunset cruises and trips to visit the Falls.

Muchenje Safari Lodge
Muchenje Safari Lodge lies just outside the remote northwest corner of Chobe, along the Chobe River.  Muchenje is the only lodge in this area and it therefore offers an experience away from the busier sections of the park to the east.

The lodge accommodates only 20 guests in 10 chalets.  The chalets sit on an escarpment with incredible views over the Chobe River and floodplains inland.  There is a swimming pool built into the natural rock and overlooking the river which provides a unique and relaxing setting.

Due to its setting outside the park's western boundary, night drives are permitted and encouraged!  Being so far removed from the rest of Chobe's lodges also creates a more intimate experience for Muchenje's guests.  The wildlife and birding in this area are excellent.
