Chobe Savanna Lodge

The Chobe Riverfront

Situated in the Eastern Caprivi, Zambezi Province of Namibia, a narrow strip of country on the northern bank of the Chobe River, Chobe Savanna Lodge overlooks the vast floodplains of the Chobe National Park’s Puku Flats. The Chobe River is home to large herds of Elephant, Buffalo and Hippo, as well as dense concentrations of other wildlife – including the rare Puku antelope – which come down to the river’s edge to drink and graze.

MOTORISED BOAT SAFARIS	River excursions in small, easily manoeuvrable boats are ideal for close encounters with the wild visitors to the river’s edge, in hard-bottom aluminum boats. The boats are equipped with comfortable seats, a foldaway canvas roof and life jackets.
SUNRISE & SUNSET RIVER CRUISES	Experience the tranquility of the Chobe River on early sunrise and sunset cruises in our larger flat-bottom skimmer.
FISHING	Fishing is also a popular pastime; our catch-and-release fishing trips for Bream or Tiger fish (seasonal).
BIRD WATCHING	Bird watching and photographic safaris are ideal from Chobe Savanna Lodge (please contact us to arrange special packages).
