CHOBE UNDER CANVAS Class ★★★★★

Chobe Under Canvas offers the discerning traveller a taste of the colonial Africa of old, tempered with the modern luxury we have come to expect from five star safari experiences. Chobe is home to one of the largest concentrations of elephants on the African continent and this experience with some of nature’s largest and most majestic creatures is a life-changing event. Being out in the open with these beasts awakens a feeling in the soul that can never be found in the city.

The Romance of Africa

• Full double beds with crisp linen to welcome you after a day filled with discovery and wonder
• Sundowners in the middle of the African wilds, with no one else for miles around
• Sleeping under the stars, and seeing the vastness of space rarely seen from our modern cities

Safari expeditions

• Morning game drives occur after your personal butler has woken you up with a cup of tea or coffee. After this, you climb into an open top 4×4 with your expert guide and commence finding the most interesting wildlife that Chobe has to offer. After this, you return to the camp for a hearty bush breakfast.
• Afternoon games drives happen after a relaxing afternoon tea, spent staring out into the African bush. Just as the heat of the day begins to dissipate, the expert guides will take you on another wonder-filled trip, or perhaps a river cruise, if the area allows. Glide through the elephants that have come to drink and enjoy snacks and sundowners on the boat as you enjoy the end of your day.
