Chobe Safari Lodge
About Chobe Safari Lodge
Large, well-established lodge in Kasane offering comfortable accommodation and easy access to Chobe National Park.
Safari Comfort on the Chobe Riverfront
Chobe Safari Lodge sits on the banks of the Chobe River in Kasane, Botswana — directly opposite Chobe National Park's famous Serondela area, where the largest elephant herds in Africa come to drink. As the biggest lodge in Kasane, it serves as a hub for safari activities, river cruises, and cross-border excursions.
Accommodation
Safari Rooms — Spacious river-facing rooms with air conditioning, en-suite bathroom, minibar, satellite TV, and private balcony. Many rooms overlook the river where elephants, hippos, and crocodiles are daily visitors.
Rondavels — Traditional round chalets set in the lodge gardens, offering a more intimate and characterful stay.
Camping — Riverfront campsites with power, water, braai, and ablutions — some of the best camping spots in Southern Africa.
Activities
Game Drives — Morning and afternoon drives into Chobe National Park, famous for its massive elephant and buffalo herds, lion prides, leopard, and wild dog.
