Chobe Botswana Day Trip River and Land Safari from Victoria Falls

Chobe National Park This is a full-day game viewing safari and river safari in the Chobe National Park. Because you are picked up at 7 am, this is the choicest time to encounter some of the big cats and nocturnal animals on the 1-hour drive to the border through the Zambezi National Park. You will be at the Chobe National Park shortly after 9am to start the day with half-day game drive in the park. This is the best time to see big cats, as they will still be active and hunting. The drive will continue until your break for lunch about noon. Lunch will be at the Chobe Safari Lodge (or similar) followed by the afternoon river safari on the Chobe River. This is a 3-hour cruise starting in the afternoon and ending around 4:00 pm. The cruise affords a chance to encounter elephants, hippos, giraffes,zebras and birds. You will be at the Zimbabwe border around 4:30pm for the 45 mile (70km) transfer to your Victoria Falls hotel. You will be back to your hotel around 6:00pm.
