Overview
The stunning and life-giving Chobe River forms the northern boundary of Chobe National Park.
Starting out as a small mountain spring in Angola, where it is known as the Kwando (a Hambukushu name) and from there it gathers water from various other tributaries as it travels great distances through the Kalahari sands before it reaches Botswana and becomes the Linyanti River (a Subiya name).
Sunset is the best time of day to view the abundant wildlife on the banks of the Chobe River in custom designed game viewing boats that get close to the banks of the river and the wildlife.
As the temperature cools, large herds of buffalo, zebra, giraffe and impala can be seen making their way down to the river, while hippos and crocodiles are common sightings on the Chobe River Sunset Cruise. Elephants frequently cross the river to the islands where lush green grass is available year-round.
