13 top lodges and safari camps in Chobe National Park

Our suggestions here cover both places which are inside Chobe National Park, and those just outside.

In the north of the park, the Chobe Riverfront is a big attraction, and to see this most visitors stay in or around Kasane. There’s just one lodge in the park, the stylish Chobe Game Lodge, the rest are just outside, with some even floating on the water. Further south, the iconic Savuti area is also a draw, with a number of lodges and safari camps there inside the park.

Helicopter Flight - Botswana

Helicopter Flight - Botswana

Various: from 30 minutes to half a day.

Low-flying, agile and offering superb views, helicopters are an ideal way to move around the Okavango Delta.You can use them instead of fixed-wing inter-lodge transfers or as an addition to other wildlife watching activities, and of course, helicopters can hover to allow that perfect pic, whereas fixed-wings can’t.
