andBeyond Chobe Under Canvas, Chobe National Park, Botswana
A Mobile Safari Camp in Botswana
Camp Details
Home to some of Africa’s largest elephant herds, Chobe National Park is a landscape of striking contrasts. As Botswana’s first and one of its most iconic national parks, this is where wildlife takes centre stage and the river breathes life into every corner. Tucked near the water’s edge in the park’s northern reaches, Chobe Under Canvas brings you closer to the raw, untamed rhythm of this remarkable wilderness.
Chobe Under Canvas invites you to disconnect to reconnect. This is a stripped-back safari with nothing missing – where five-star comfort lives under canvas, meals are shared fireside and the wild is always close. With just five tents and no distractions, you’ll feel present, grounded and entirely at home in nature.
