My daughter and I had an amazing day trip to Chobe National Park starting with a water safari and moving on to a jeep safari after a delicious lunch. We saw a lioness with her cubs after their giraffe kill, a separate Lioness hunting and drinking, antelope, buffalo, warthog, giraffe, crocodile, monitor lizard, a whole herd of elephants, hippo’s, monkeys and more. The staff were very knowledgable and gave us time to study the animals and take photos. It was definitely the highlight of our trip. A big thank you to our guides.

Augustine our ever efficient Lodge manager suggested a trip into Lake Chobe in Botswana. So early to rise at 05:30, a quick squizz at the sunrise, a breakfast at 06:00 and our trusted chauffeur arrived to transport us across the Botswana border at 06:30am. 3 other tourists from Columbia and the UK joined our group and off we went on our adventure with Kalahari Tours. Firstly, we hopped on a small skiff of a boat and spent 4 hours traversing the expanse of Lake Chobe chasing down elephants, buffalo, hippo’s, impala and all kinds of birds from Egyptian geese to every kind of eagle. What a splendid morning. I must say I did envy the bigger boats every time we rattled in their wake of the waves they generated as they sped past us. Neither the sunscreen, my sunglasses or my hat could minimise the glare reflecting off the water. It was a scorcher of a day in Botswana. Lunch was offered but not embraced. After a cold St Louis beer, the next phase of the adventure began. A 4 hour safari in an open game vehicle. The heat beat down on our heads but my prayers were answered and I saw in excess of 10 giraffe (gilaugh’s are my spirit animal) and as many elephants (heffalumps) as well as 2 lionesses with 3 cubs feeding on a fresh Impala kill. Nature has a way of being a buzz kill but hey that’s what we signed up for. Hot and bothered but completely at peace with our day we meandered over a new bridge opened in 2022 built by the Chinese that links Botswana and Zambia seamlessly after years of ferrying cars and trucks across the border into Zambia on pontoones. On arrival at Chundukwa Lodge, happy but defeated by the heat a nap was taken and then dinner. The pictures don’t do the day justice and after countless times, cursing my Apple iPhone camera, I have committed to getting a proper camera to record my many short lefts across the continents.

Leo did a great job getting us good angles of the animals during our Safari. The whole day was nicely organized and the food was delicious. Easy, chill, and memorable. Especially when we got close to the lion with an elephant foot in its mouth

Really great trip and the transfer was very easy. SO MANY ELEPHANTS! Would love to do a longer safari in Chobe.

Fantastic tour- I would highly recommend. The lunch was divine and the crew were extremely helpful. Our guide (Freemby) was extremely knowledgeable and helped us a lot. His ability to spot animals and bird ( the variety of birds were just phenomenal) was a strong positive. They partner with the Jolly Boys in Zambia and our Jolly Boys guide (Moyo) was one of the more knowledgeable and kind person I have ever met. Chobe is amazing; the Kalahari team made the whole trip exceptional. We did the boat trip in the morning and the road safari in the afternoon. I would strongly recommend! One note - Botswana is particular about rules. If you have a minor ( <18) with you, make sure you have the birth certificate of the minor and both parents on the trip.

The afternoon game drive was amazing !!! Saw elephants, giraffes, cape buffalo, impala, antelopes, hippos on land and in the water, lions and loads of birds including vultures and eagles. The tour guide George was very knowledgeable. A great day , would highly recommend using this tour company.

Game viewing. We were lucky to almost all the wild lives during our rainy season time safari. And the guide was very knowledgeable and answered all our questions.

We recently completed a tour of Chobe National Park from Victoria Falls. Chika, our guide, met us at the border and drove us to a small garden restaurant for a light breakfast. Chika then took us for a boat ride on the Chobe River, where we saw buffaloes, crocodiles, hippos, impalas, monitors, and more bird species than I think I’ve ever seen in my life. We then returned to the restaurant for an excellent lunch if Botswanan steak before going on a game drive. Chika did an excellent job scouting the animals, and we were able to see a pride of lions testing under a tree and a herd of elephants, complete with a baby. We also visited a few waterholes where we saw baboons, warthogs, and kudus all drinking from the same pond. After the tour, Chika dropped us back at the border for our transfer back to Victoria Falls. If you’re in the area, do not hesitate to take this tour. I’d recommend asking for Chika. His knowledge of the animals and their behavior is incredible, and it really adds to the experience.

An excellent adventure and great guide. The day starts with a light continental breakfast, then a river tour on the Zambezi. During the river portion, wr saw elephants, hippos, crocodiles, impala, cape Buffalo and so much more. After a delicious lunch, it was onto the land vehicle for the rest of the safari. We got up close to elephants, giraffe and lion, and just missed a lion kill. Definitely a trip to take, and Sam, our guide, was super knowledgeable and friendly. Highly recommend!!

We were picked up from the Zimbabwean boarder by our guide called Jinx , we joked and asked if he would jinx us to not see any animals but it was the exact opposite.The amount of knowledge Jinx has about the animals their habits is astonishing.He could name most of the birds and is an excellent tracker .request for him by name you won’t regret it.He spotted lions when over 3 different tour company guides missed them completely we almost faced off with an elephant and i believe his knowledge of the animals and calm demeanor reassured us we were safe .Lunch at the restaurant was good .

Absolutely stunning experience, staff where friendly and accommodating and we got the adventure of a life time! Highly recommend Lance as your tour guide, never a dull moment as he is full of jokes and feels like part of the family! Thank you!

I arranged a game drive and sunset cruise for our group before we left Cape Town. At popping in to the offices, I was greeted with great smiles. They were actually expecting us and gave me instructions as to pick up points and times for our activities. Our guides arrived just before 6 to take us on our drive. They were super friendly, knowledgeable and informative. We were lucky to see Lions(our wish granted) during our drive. Whenever one of us wanted to stop for picture or another angle, they would gladly oblige. It was the same for the sunset cruise and we could take as many photographs as we wanted too. We found KT to be very reliable and efficient with great staff. They also know a thing or two about Chobe. Well done and thank you again. Highly recommendable when visiting Chobe or the Vic falls.

Hello Kalahari Tours, You Guys Are Simply The Best Safari Group, Very Prompt At Service Delivery And Hey Your Guides Are Seasoned!!!

Traveling during a pandemic is something else. Christin and her team went more than the extra mile to ensure our trip to Vic Falls was a successful one. First, they allow us to modify the trip from a day trip to an overnight one, giving us more time to enjoy at Livingstone and Vic Falls. Then they allow us to park our rental car at their office. Christin helped over the entire weekend to facilitate our online Zambian e-Visa application and miraculously got us through. They have a very professional team, thank you Lunza for making the initial bookings, Lance for dropping us at the border, and Patrick for picking us back up the following day. They have a jolly good business partner across the border in Zambia, thank you Moyo from JollyBoys for taking care of us during our stay in Zambia. My profound appreciation and gratitude go to these nice people that faithfully and joyfully stay true to the essence of tourism/hospitality, even under such harsh circumstances of a pandemic. Thank you for not losing your heart! Pray that things will be back to normal soon.

Familjen (2 vuxna, 2 9-åringar) tog en dagstur till Chobe national park (från Zimbabwe). Turen innehöll ca 3h båtcruise bland flodhästar, nilkrokodiler, vattenbufflar, elefant, leguan och en mängd fåglar. Det ingick en god lunchbuffé inkl efterrätt innan nästa del av dagsturen tog vid, en ca 2h lång game drive. Vi körde nu längs med Chobe river och fick uppleva en stor hjord elefanter som svalkade sig i gyttja. Vi fick nu från en annan vinkel också se flodhästar, impalas, babianer, giraff, kudu, vårtsvin och fåglar. Vår duktiga guide Chika hjälpte oss vid gränsen och var under utflykten uppmärksam på vad vi själva fick syn på och berättade gärna vad vi såg. Han ville inte släppa iväg oss innan vi fick se ett lejon, vilket han lyckades med. En helt fantastisk dag. Kan varmt rekommenderas.
