We booked the Chobe day trip for a Nov 2024 tour. We were picked up promptly at
7 am by our driver, from our hotel in Zambia and driven to Botswana. Our driver was very pleasant and provided us info along the route. It was a great ride. In Botswana we started with the Chobe river tour…our guide, I forgot his name, was very knowledgeable about the river, the area, the animals. He even helped some guests find the birds we saw on the riverbank in their bird book. He was gracious, gave great instructions , and took very good care of all the passengers, maneuvering the boat so we can get a good look and capture our pics, The river cruise very scenic. We saw many animals and birds. Bring binoculars even though we saw the well enough without. We had lunch and it was a great selection buffet. We then went onto the safari part of the tour and saw all kind of animals, including elephants, giraffes and lions.
Highl, highly recommend. I would do this tour again and stay overnight. Just lovely.
I was glad the tour started with the river tour then the safari. The guides and drivers were very hospitable. The food at lunch, delicious
What could have been done better? Well, I would do the day again without question. But I would say even though we knew what the tour entailed, a run down of the day’s activities timeline at the beginning would be helpful. Also an opportunity to buy souvenirs and take pic at the lunch stop.
