“We had an unforgettable day in Chobe National Park and everyone worked really hard to make sure we made amazing memories. Eddie drove us from our hotel to the Botswana border and was very friendly and informative with knowledge about the town of Victoria Falls and the wildlife we might encounter on the way there and back. At the border he gave clear instructions about where he would meet us and he helped us quickly navigate that bureaucracy involved in the border crossing. Joe took us from the border to Chobe and did the safari drive which was incredible. We are grateful to his driving skills in getting us safely…”

Travel from Victoria Falls to Botswana for a Chobe River cruise and a Chobe National Park game drive. Expect border assistance, close views of elephants, hippos, crocodiles, buffalo, birds, and possibly lions, plus buffet lunch at Cresta Mowana Lodge. Guides such as Cobra, Brook, PK, and Rocky have earned strong praise for their spotting skills.

“We were collected from our hotel at the nominated time by Stanford and driven to the border, viewing wildlife by the roadside along the way. Stanford was happy to stop for us to take photos and to point out animals as we travelled along. We arrived at the border and were escorted through the crossing where we then met our guide Cobra who was amazing! Our jeep safari was fantastic and we saw many animals including lions, leopards, elephants, giraffes and countless zebra and impala. Cobra was very knowledgeable and personable and helped us learn more about the National Park. Lunch which was provided was buffet style and was delicious.…”

Join guides Connie and Vincent for a three-hour safari from Livingstone into Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park.

“The game drive was fine. Unfortunately the time of year we went was dry season, and so most of the animals had left. But the rhino walk was the true experience. We were able to get up to about 20m from 4 rhinos and a baby. The guards ensured we stayed safe enough away for both our sake and the rhino.”
