The sunsets in this area are some of the most incredible you will encounter.
Botswana’s National Parks have intentionally remained rural. This allows for some of Africa’s best viewing opportunities because the animals roam free. As such, there is always the possibility of animals wandering into the campgrounds to join you.
The campsites at the Chobe Safari Lodge were small and packed closely together, with limited privacy. There was no water on-site, but communal sinks were available for cooking water and dishwashing. Each site was equipped with power and lights, with electric plugs available for charging devices. Wi-Fi was accessible at reception.
