Chobe Game Lodge

Chobe Game Lodge is the only lodge inside the Chobe National Park. This 5 star Botswana safari lodge is situated on the magnificent Chobe River.

This alone makes it a first-choice destination for that once-in-a-lifetime Botswana tour safari experience.

Chobe Game Lodge is a pioneering lodge on the banks of the world-renowned game-rich Chobe River.

As the oldest 5-star Lodge in the area, and indeed in Botswana, the Lodge occupies an enviable position right inside Chobe National Park, giving guests a launchpad from which to explore the Park at first light.

The early bird, as they say, finds the best game. In 2014 we launched the first solar-powered boats and safari vehicles, creating silent safaris that transform your African safari experience.

Nestled on the banks of the Chobe, under a canopy of trees, Chobe Game Lodge consists of 40 beautifully designed and spacious rooms and a further four luxurious suites.

Every room is air-conditioned and has its own private terrace overlooking the Chobe. Suites have their own infinity plunge pools facing the river.

The main areas are relaxed and comfortably laid out, with two complimentary bars and numerous spots to dine.

Naturally the focus of the lodge lies with the majestic Chobe River, and the 250 meter boardwalk brings you up close to where the action is.

Find a spot along the platform and settle in to watch colours change and the action unfold.

Chobe Game Lodge was built in the early 1970’s. The luxury 5 star Botswana safari lodge was designed to make the most of the river frontage.

The wide front veranda offers views of the river. This is from comfortable and elegantly appointed seating areas.

Every room at Chobe Game Lodge has a balcony that faces the river. The recently built boardwalk has added a whole new dimension to game-viewing.

You can simply find your favorite spot along this 250 meter elevated platform.

Once you settle down, you can watch the ever-changing wildlife parade across the river. You will also have the view of wildlife in the islands, floodplains and even as far away as Namibia.

Staying at Chobe Game Lodge

Established in 1973, Chobe Game Lodge is one of the most famous lodges in Botswana and the only permanent lodge located within the renowned Chobe National Park.

This privileged location allows guests to be the first to enter the park every morning and the last to leave, providing photographers with a significant advantage.

Within the lodge, and shaded by magnificent mahogany trees, Chobe offers an elegant five-star experience with 40 spacious and stylish rooms, along with four luxurious suites.

Guests can unwind in various complimentary bars and seating areas or by the pool, and they can choose from various dining areas.

An incredible 250 meter board walk runs along the river and forms the focus of the lodge.

Walking along the promenade, or finding a seat along its length gives guests a chance to peacefully (barring the grunting hippos) observe the wildlife without even getting into a car or boat.

For corporate guests, modern conference facilities are available, supported by lodge-wide Wi-Fi and convenient access to Kasane.
