Activities done in Chobe Chilwero logde

Early in the morning after breakfast there is game drive. It is done in the Chobe national park with the company on knowledgeable guides that lecture tourists on different animals that will be seen in the park e.g. elephants buffalos and lions

In the afternoon there is boat rides/boat cruise. It done on the Chobe river. Boat rides are done mostly in the afternoon because animals will be coming down to the river to drink water. This increases the chances of tourists to see different  animals that leave in the park

The activities that I have stated above are some of the interesting activities in Chobe Chilwero logde.

It is a luxurious riverside retreat in the heart of the bush on the edge of Chobe National Park, home to the world's largest remaining population of elephants. Chobe chilwero lodge is located near three boarders that is Zambia, Zimbabwe and Namibia making it an interesting place to visit and also unique. It is 70km from Victoria falls ,60km from Namibia and almost 40km from Zambia.

Chobe chilwero lodge is an incredibly luxurious lodge with just 15 guest cottages as well as the only full spa on the Botswana safari circuit. It is also 10km away from the town of Kasane and about 8minutes drive to Kasane airport.
