"Chobe Elephant Camp"
The staff singing at dinner was really enjoyable and a very special treat. We even got into the dancing.
Our guide was excellent, taking the time to point out birds and trees along with all the big animals. Very knowledgeable and personable.

"Authentic Experience with great guide"
We thoroughly enjoyed our safaris with "Innocent" our very informative guide. Also the boat trip was really special.
An area that requires some improvement is the food offerings at lunch. A sandwich of lettuce, cheese and some sauce was really below par. The staff were very informal and pleasant. Meals at other sittings were adequate." See all these reviews: 5n in Botswana; 2n in Zimbabwe

"Great stay at the aptly named elephant camp"

"Great stay at Chobe Elephant Camp"
The Camp sits overlooking towards the Delta across to Namibia. The views are fantastic.
We had a group of Elephants walk across the bottom of the hill one morning it was a great way to wake up.
The staff are very helpful and generous with their time." See all these reviews: 2n in Botswana
"Chobe Elephant Camp"
We could use the Internet for a few minutes as needed in the office (on someone's private computer). Be prepared for the rough game rides (if you have back or neck issues, I'd look for a different terrain).
The boat safari was the highlight." See all these reviews: 3n in Botswana; 3n in Zambia
