Your 3 nights at Chobe Chilwero will allow you to enjoy the fantastic game viewing for which this park is renowned, particularly it's large herds of elephant and buffalo. In addition to the morning and afternoon game drives, the lodge has it's own small flat-bottomed boat to allow you to cruise the river and get a totally different perspective on your game viewing.

From the airstrip, you will be transferred to this classic tented camp where you will be spending the next 3 nights. Stanley's offers the quintessential Okavango Delta experience, with superb game viewing in a private concession meaning you have the whole area to explore without seeing other vehicles.
