We dropped a star only because , having seen the migration in the Masai, Chobe doesn’t quite offer the huge game herds that can been seen on the savannah. However it is still beautiful and, apart from Cheatah we saw everything we wanted to.

A beautiful national park with huge numbers of amazing wildlife to see
During our stay, the most striking thing was the sheer numbers of animals in Chobe national park. We saw herds of elephants, giraffes, and buffalo among many other animals and saw 4 out of 5 of the Big 5. The river setting really made Chobe stand out and allowed for the viewing of animals in a different environment to many other safari locations.
We stayed at Chobe Marina Lodge which is a beautiful collection of lodges, right on the river. The food, accommodation and staff were all great as was seeing wild warthogs wandering past our accommodation.
Everything was taken care of by the attentive staff and we had the choice of river cruise safaris or truck safaris (we did both). One particular highlight has to be seeing the sun setting over the river from our boat.

The garden eden in a role model country
Chobe is one of the top destinations for safari in Botswana. You have plenty of different wildlife species. I really enjoyed the enormous number of elephants and also the lion population. The accomodation are not cheap, but with the high rates Botswana als protects the area against mass tourism. Only around Kasane it is very busy.
A fantastic place, Chobe N.P.
Last July of 2018, during a trip to Africa, I had the opportunity to visit the Chobe National Park. This place seemed like a paradise for a traveler and photographer, the safaris are amazing and fascinating, with all kinds of animals and birds. It is an explosion of wildlife and nature.
Of the several National Parks that I visited on that trip, this and the Okavango Delta are the ones I liked the most. For a lover of animals and wildlife, it is essential to visit the Chobe National Park.

Elephants everywhere
With excellent access by both land and water, Chobe is probably the best location for elephant viewing in all of Africa. The ability to view game up close silently from a drifting boat is unmatched anywhere. Botswana is safe and well governed and has done a fantastic job of managing natural resources and controlling tourism pressure. Many popular parks in the rest of Africa feel like large zoos crowded with tourists. Chobe feels like the real bush.
We take groups there each winter with remsberg.com and teach photography workshops staying at the excellent Garden Lodge in Kasane. There is no better place to learn wildlife photography than Chobe and it is so close to Vic Falls that you end up with an amazing two for one experience.

After Moremi and Savuti Chobe (east side) felt a bit like a zoo with More tourists than animals. Still lots to see especially elephants and baboons.

Unreal wildlife and setting. My tour operator had me with the Bushways camp there.
