Chobe Safari Lodges

Lodge itself was OK, comfortable and clean enough, nothing special. Several things were a bit annoying – it took quite some effort to open and close terrace doors, the electric switches in the room follow strange system, it took us some time to understand how some lamps are switched off; we had to ask for a second blanket at least twice, water in the pool was somewhat murky and uninviting, we did not dare to try it out, there was some misunderstanding with our afternoon game drive (however, it finally went very well with an excellent guide). The good things: surroundings are fantastic – not only is the lodge close to the entrance of the National Park, but the Park visits the lodge frequently: mongooses, baboons and warthogs were daily visitors (no danger from them unless you do something foolish). There is also a short nature walk in the territory of the lodge, but they do not allow visitors to go there unattended as larger predators sometimes visit, which may pose a danger. Apart from the closeness of nature, there are all the comforts of civilization just outside the gates: a supermarket, a money exchange, and a small souvenir market. Food at the lodge should be mentioned, too – it was very good, they served European and African dishes.

3 very pleasant nights spent at this Lodge on the banks of the River Chobe. We saw some remarkable things in the National Park and on the safari boat trip, all due to our Guides and their knowledge and skills. My only slight criticism would be the lunch-time menu - insufficient vegetarian meals to give choice over the 3 days. I guess I could have asked for something else, but it was just about adequate. The evening meals though were very good.

This place is awesome! The hotel itself is really nice and very clean. Staff are friendly, welcoming and always available to help. The rooms are fantastic and fully stocked with everything you need. The game drives are a MUST, we saw so many different animals including Lions, Elephants, Giraffes, Hyenas and more! Thank you to everyone at the Lodge for making this stay a once-in-a-lifetime experience! I highly recommend to everyone!

A nice location with great rooms and plenty of local wildlife. Stay away from the Buffet as my wife and another person from our small group suffered sever food poisoning resulting in my wife having to be rushed to the 24 hour medical center for extensive treatment. High praise for the customer service manager Selalo ( I hope is spelt this correctly) she stayed with us the entire time at the medical center providing comfort and support. The facility driver was also fantastic.

Just spent an exciting couple of days here. Oriah was our excellent guide for the duration. She made sure we saw Lions, Giraffe, Hippos, Crocs, Wild Dogs, Impala, Baboons etc. She was very knowledgeable and informative. The accommodation was very comfortable. The room was spacious and clean. The bed was very comfortable and the bathroom large with both bath and shower. The food was ok but nothing special. I would say that the food let Chobe Game Reserve down. Having said that what we came for was the experience and the animals which truly delivered. If you’re keen to go to Chobe, this is the Lodge to go to as it’s the only one in the Park.

We have recently returned from a Safari holiday in Zimbabwe & Botswana. Our stay at the Chobe Safari Lodge will be one to remember... it was fab!
