Camp Details

5.0 / 51 rating

Chobe Savanna Lodge is situated in the Eastern Zambezi Region, along the northern bank of the Chobe River, which serves as a natural border between Namibia and Botswana. The lodge is wrapped in wetland and grassland terrain, and overlooks sweeping floodplains, Chobe National Park’s iconic Puku Flats, and riverine forests in the distance.

This is the beating heart of Chobe Savanna Lodge, where unforgettable adventure begins, and days unfold leisurely. Here, meals are shared in community (or privately, on request), time slows on multiple raised decks, and wildlife encounters begin without travelling far.

With 180-degree elevated views of the surrounding wetlands, grasslands, and the Chobe River beyond, in-lodge game viewing is rewarding. Elephants, antelopes of various species, and prolific birdlife are known to roam and soar into full view, and guests have every platform to settle in and watch Mother Nature’s big screen.

WHY CHOOSE CHOBE SAVANNA LODGE?

  • River excursions in small, easily maneuverable boats are ideal for close encounters with the wild visitors to the river’s edge.
  • Those wishing to experience some of the local Namibian traditions will enjoy a cultural village visit to one of the surrounding communities, where one can observe the ancient heritage of the local people.
  • Birding is also spectacular, ideal for African skimmers, white-crowned lapwing, all three pratincoles, black coucal, large flocks of African openbills and an excellent number of species in the gardens themselves such as brown firefinch, purple-banded sunbird and white-browed coucal

Questions about Chobe Savanna Lodge

What is the advantage of being on the Namibian bank?

You look across at the action rather than sitting in it. The lodge stands on the northern bank of the Chobe River in the Eastern Caprivi and overlooks the Puku Flats floodplains of Chobe National Park, where large herds of elephant, buffalo and hippo come down to drink, along with the rare puku antelope.

Is it a good place for birding?

Unusually good. The river and floodplains bring African skimmers, white-crowned lapwing, all three pratincoles, black coucal and large flocks of African openbills, while the lodge gardens themselves hold species such as brown firefinch, purple-banded sunbird and white-browed coucal, so there is plenty to watch without going anywhere.

How do we get out on the river, and what does it cost?

River excursions use small, easily manoeuvrable boats, which lets you get close to animals at the water's edge, and there are cultural village visits to surrounding communities. Rates are from US$490 per person per night between 6 January and March, US$520 in April, November and over the festive period, and US$660 from May to October.
