Destination - Chobe

Chobe

The first glimpse of the dazzling, deep blue Chobe River, as it cuts its way through sandy terrain, lush floodplains, forests of cathedral mopane trees, and endless broadleaf woodlands is always breath taking.

Chobe is a game-viewers dream, particularly in winter (March - July). November - December sees the migration of herbivores between the Chobe River and Savuti Marsh (and back between February and April). Game-viewing and bird-watching from boat cruises on the Chobe River make for spectacular photographic opportunities.

The key to this safari area is Chobe's animal migration. Chobe's animals move in complex, ancient patterns determined by the rain and available food. Within Chobe National Park there are two areas - the Chobe Riverfront and Savuti Marsh

When the erratic Savuti Channel is flowing, its waters spill over the plains to create a marshland that is both beautiful and bountiful. Even when it’s dry, the seemingly hostile environment is flush with new growth in the early part of the year, a place of plenty for wildlife. As the land dries up, so the pools shrink, the last vestiges of water attracting predators to their wary prey. And so the cycle continues.
