    Day 2

    Chobe full day game drive

    Chobe full-day game drive offers clients a fantastic chance to see a variety of wild species in the park.

We encourage all passengers taking part in this excursion to bring their passports and money to pay for their visas, as these will be required at the border when they cross into Botswana for the day trip. Chobe game drive allows guests to see wildlife both on land and during a safari cruise on the Chobe River. When taking a safari tour on a boat, you have a good possibility of seeing a lot of animals because they will come to drink water. The boats may get near to the animals, allowing clients to capture unique photos. When the wildlife drive is done, clients will be taken back to the Azambezi River Lodge in Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe. The main destination is Chobe National Park (Botswana). Accommodation: A' Zambezi River Lodge.
