The Complete Chobe Experience
The Chobe River is best experienced from more than one perspective.
For a limited time, combine the relaxed island setting of Ichingo Chobe River Lodge with an intimate river safari aboard Chobe Princess, and enjoy 20% savings on your journey.
From peaceful mornings on Impalila Island to wildlife viewing, birding and golden sunsets on the Chobe River, this is your opportunity to experience the destination from two completely different perspectives.
Travel between 1 October and 31 December 2026.
Discover two unforgettable Chobe experiences in one incredible journey
Begin your journey at Ichingo Chobe River Lodge, where days are shaped around your interests. Explore the river with a dedicated guide, enjoy exceptional birding and catch-and-release tiger fishing, walk across Impalila Island or simply settle into the relaxed rhythm of island life.
Then continue aboard Chobe Princess, an intimate houseboat that moves through different sections of the Chobe River. Observe wildlife from the water, take in ever-changing scenery and end each day beneath the wide African sky.
Together, these two experiences offer a richer and more immersive way to discover the Chobe.
