Full description
Spend a full day immersed in nature with a cruise on the Chobe River followed by a game drive in the world-famous Chobe National Park. Only 1 hour away from Livingstone, the Chobe National Park in Botswana is home to one of the largest game concentrations in Africa.   The tour departs from Livingstone, where you’ll be picked up from your lodge or hotel for a transfer to the border. Your Botswanan guide will meet you after immigration procedures and take you first to the cruise on the Chobe River. This breathtaking river is famous for its rich elephant and lion population, so keep your eyes peeled to spot the wildlife in the water and along the banks. Enjoy a fresh buffet lunch with several options at a beautiful lodge situated on the riverbank.   Then, switch to a game drive in the National Park. Your open-sided vehicle will allow you to see 360-degrees around you and at great distances over the safari, which is populated with elephants, Cape buffalo, lions, antelopes, and more. Refreshments will be served throughout the tour to keep you cool. After a full day of experiencing the beauty of African nature, you’ll be dropped off back at your accommodations.

Excellent trip. I don't normally like mass tourism type of things so I was a bit concerned whether or not I'd like this arrangement. However, I was pleasantly surprised to have been picked up from my hotel in a private car (not shared with another group), once at the national park there were 8 other guests, an interested and fun group people with mixed backgrounds. The national park visit was spectacular, we saw lions, elephants, hippos, zebras, giraffes, crocodiles, buffalos, etc. Of course these sightings are not guaranteed particularly as the tour leaves quite late (ca. 9am into the park), but you will see plenty of wildlife. Bring a good camera, it'll be worth it.

Lovely journey to Botswana through Zambia and Botswana to Chobe. The park was lovely and very green this time of year. We saw a great variety of birds and animals especially very close to a mother and baby elephant. Also two Male lions. The cruise on the Chobe river we saw hippos crocodiles buffalo and birds as well as various antelope. Unfortunately being the rainy season it rained and reduced our views. Guides were excellent and it was a very enjoyable day .

We have the most fantastic day with Maano Adventures. We picked up promptly from our lodge at 7am before being driven to the Botswana border. Our Zambian driver Kendrick drove very safely and carefully, and was very interesting to chat to. He walked us through the immigration process and helped us on the boat over the lake where our guide for Chobe was waiting. We had an excellent day with Cape Fig Safaris, the Botswana company operating the tour with Maano. He was highly interesting, patient and really wanted to make our day excellent. Lunch was great (soft drinks included) at a beautiful lodge with a stunning views. The boat trip was excellent too, with another guide. Everything went really smoothly, we felt 100% safe and the communication before, during and after the trip was fab. Thanks so much!
