Half-Day Game Viewing and Boat Cruise at Chobe National Park from Victoria Falls
This half-day tour departs from Victoria Falls to Chobe National Park, offering game drives or boat cruises suitable for wildlife enthusiasts and day visitors.
Highlights
- Exhilarating game viewing experience
- Short and focused itinerary with no repetition
- Allows time for other activities during the day
Description
Between 7:00 and 7:30 am, clients are picked up and travel about an hour to the Botswana border. After completing border formalities, you will meet your guide or captain who will manage the rest of the trip.
There are two half-day options: a game drive with lunch or a boat cruise with lunch. If choosing the game drive, you will explore Chobe National Park to observe active wildlife, especially best in the morning. Alternatively, the boat cruise heads straight to the Chobe River.
The boat cruise option is available in the morning but is better suited for the afternoon when animals gather at the riverbanks, and temperatures are higher for a comfortable experience on the water. Typically, lunch occurs around noon followed by the cruise.
The morning activity and lunch conclude around 13:30, after which clients return to the border. For afternoon cruises, the tour ends around 16:30 before heading back. Transfers drop guests off at their hotels in Victoria Falls.
