3 Days 2 Night Camping in Chobe

Enjoy an epic overnight camping experience in Chobe with a three day, two night adventure!

Start your experience with a morning boat cruise on the Chobe River in Chobe National Park, one of the highlights of the trip as you have the opportunity to get up close and personal with fantastic birdlife, hippos, crocodiles and scores of elephant and Cape buffalo that make their way down to the river to quench their thirst.

Enjoy a delicious lunch at Coffee Buzz restaurant, and then return to the park on one of our customised 4x4 game viewers for an afternoon game drive, being the best time to see Chobe National Park’s large herbivores making their way down to the river to drink. Head to camp shortly after sunset for dinner around the camp fire, and listen to the sounds of the bush around you as you slumber in your tent under the African sky.

Wake up at dawn with a friendly Botswana “dumela” (good day), and after breakfast head off on an early morning game drive. This time of day is best for finding the big cats or wild dogs as they are still active at this time and chances of seeing them are good.

Return to camp for a delicious “bush brunch” and an opportunity to read, rest or take a refreshing shower. When the day starts to cool off another afternoon game drive follows tea, and good sightings are revisited or areas as yet unexplored are visited. Return to camp after sunset for a reflective fireside chat. Dinner follows, as always accompanied by the unforgettable sounds of the African night.

On your last day, enjoy a dawn breakfast followed by an early morning game drive - you may be lucky and even spot a leopard! Return to camp for a delicious “bush brunch” and an opportunity to take a refreshing shower and to pack. Leave camp on a final boat cruise on the Chobe River, before heading back into Kasane/Kazungula.

This is the ultimate overnight camping experience and a wonderful opportunity to explore the best Chobe National Park has to offer!

What to Pack

• Generally, casual comfortable clothing is suitable throughout the year, dull neutral colours are most suitable.
• Campsites are very sandy so suitable footwear is advised.
• T shirts.
• Jeans or safari trousers for the cool evenings and mornings.
• A fleece or warm sweater for those early morning game drives.
• A good pair of Sunglasses.
• Sun block, a hat and insect repellent are essential!
• Binoculars and a camera with charged batteries - there is no electricity in the bush (we can charge via the cigarette lighter 12V only).
• A headlamp or torch is vital.
• If you enjoy a whisky or the like, you are welcome to bring a bottle along to sip by the Campfire.
• A towel, and your own toiletries (ladies please remember there are no shops for emergencies)
• Any medication if necessary, we do have a medical aid box with the basics.
• There will be times when you are exposed to the sun so a thin long sleeve shirt may come in handy.
• The early morning drives will be very cold in the winter months - so layers are best to keep out the chill in the back of the game drive vehicle. (June-Aug.)
• Please attempt to travel as light as possible - space is always an issue on Safari.
• If you have recently travelled to a yellow fever area please ensure you have the relevant yellow fever vaccination requirements in place.
