Fantastic experience - Lovely team that assisted us from start to finish. The game drive with Tshepy was absolutely fantastic, she is amazing! We saw lots of animals and had plenty of time to photograph them and enjoy being in the park. She was a brilliant game driver and guide. Hotel pick up and drop off included. Our driver Derrick was very helpful getting us across the border from Zambia into Botswana which made the whole process easy. Lunch was lovely and there were drinks available throughout the day. The afternoon ended with a boat trip on the Chobe river. Our guide France was very knowledgeable and was able to get us close to the animals but still kept a safe and respectful distance. This is a wonderfully relaxing activity because you are guided from start to finish so would highly recommend doing this in between any fast paced activities that you might also have booked.

Awesome safari, one of the best Africa offers - What an amazing day trip to Chobe from Livingstone. Smooth pickup from and dropoff at Livingstone as well as super easy immigration in both Zambia and Botswana both ways. And Chobe is seriously indescribable. Literally saw over 500 elephants, a lion, some wild dogs, herds of buffaloes, many an impala, and tons more of wildlife. Had a game drive in the morning and a boat ride in the afternoon. Getting goosebumps writing this review. A serious must do for those into wildlife safaris

A Great Day Out Spotting Critters! - All the guides were fantastic - patient, knowledgable, friendly and KEEN to make sure we saw as much as possible. And we saw alot! On the game drive, elephants, giraffe, impala, hippo, and even a rare and close-up glimose at a lioness. Spectacular! Lunch was plentiful and tasty in very comfy surrounds! And then the river cruise brought MORE wildlife - all kinds of birds, buffalo, crocs and monkeys, but for me, the hippos stole the show! A totally fulfilling day! You gotta do this!

A great way to glimpse Botswana for the first time - We booked the Chobe day trip for a Nov 2024 tour. We were picked up promptly at 7 am by our driver, from our hotel in Zambia and driven to Botswana. Our driver was very pleasant and provided us info along the route. It was a great ride. In Botswana we started with the Chobe river tour…our guide, I forgot his name, was very knowledgeable about the river, the area, the animals. He even helped some guests find the birds we saw on the riverbank in their bird book. He was gracious, gave great instructions , and took very good care of all the passengers, maneuvering the boat so we can get a good look and capture our pics, The river cruise very scenic. We saw many animals and birds. Bring binoculars even though we saw the well enough without. We had lunch and it was a great selection buffet. We then went onto the safari part of the tour and saw all kind of animals, including elephants, giraffes and lions. Highl, highly recommend. I would do this tour again and stay overnight. Just lovely. I was glad the tour started with the river tour then the safari. The guides and drivers were very hospitable. The food at lunch, delicious What could have been done better? Well, I would do the day again without question. But I would say even though we knew what the tour entailed, a run down of the day’s activities timeline at the beginning would be helpful. Also an opportunity to buy souvenirs and take pic at the lunch stop.

A great safari with a variety of wildlife seen - I had a great experience with the chobe safari day trip. The tour guides were extremely knowledgeable and provided a great safari experience. Many animals were seen when we went. As someone who is new to international travel, the drivers were extremely helpful when crossing the Botswana border from Zambia and made the whole experience stress free

Great! - This is a great day trip to do from Livingstone/Victoria Falls, as you will see much more wildlife than in the national parks in the immediate vicinity of the falls. My driver picked me up promptly at 7 am and helped me quickly get through the Botswana border. Then I got into the car of the Botswanan guide with the rest of those going on the trip. We were very lucky and saw all the animals we expected to see - including a leopard. Would recommend 100%.

A very nice trip on the water and on land in Chobe National Park - This was a great full day trip. We came over by bus from Zambia, and then crossed into Namibia and Chobe National Park. We spent the first half of the day on the water and then had lunch at the park restaurant, and then went out on a Safari where we got a lot of time seeing wildlife up close. It was pretty uncrowded when we were there so we got to stop and watch the surroundings and just take it in. All in all a very good trip with excellent guides.

Great trip - It was a well organised tour which packed a lot into one day. The lunch was very good. It would have helped if the Provider had responded to calls and messages to confirm the pickup. As it was, the pickup was fine
