Safari & Wildlife

Chobe National Park, located in northern Botswana, is renowned for having the highest concentration of elephants in Africa, with over 120,000 of these majestic giants roaming its landscapes. It’s not uncommon to witness massive herds, sometimes numbering over a hundred, especially along the Chobe River during the dry season. The park’s diverse ecosystems — from lush floodplains and dense woodlands to expansive savannahs — also support a rich variety of wildlife, including lions, buffalo, leopards, and over 450 bird species. Chobe offers unforgettable game viewing by both vehicle and boat, making it one of Southern Africa’s top safari destinations.

Witness the greatest wildlife show on earth when over a million wildebeest, gazelle and zebra charge towards better grazing areas, dangerously crossing the Mara River where crocodiles lie in wait. No wonder it is listed as one of the Seven Natural Wonders of Africa.

Savour the tranquility of gliding through the reed-lined channels of the Okavango Delta in a traditional mokoro, a dugout canoe steered quietly by a skilled poler.

As you drift across still waters, surrounded by lilies and waving papyrus, you’ll encounter a world rich in life, from tiny frogs clinging to reeds to elephants wading gracefully nearby. For those seeking more adrenaline, action-packed game drives across the delta’s grassy plains offer the chance to spot lions, leopards, and herds of buffalo up close. Each journey, whether by water or land, unveils new wonders of this remarkable ecosystem. The Okavango is a place where silence speaks, and every track, ripple, or distant call hints at the wild beauty that surrounds you. Whether you’re floating peacefully or bouncing along rugged trails, game viewing here is an unforgettable, deeply rewarding experience that captures the essence of untamed Africa.

As your vehicle hits the rim of the Ngorongoro Crater, you’ll catch your first glimpse of this ancient caldera: filled with wildlife and offering some of the best game viewing in Tanzania. In you go.

Witnessing the Big Five is on everyone’s bucket list, and Madikwe offers ample opportunities to spot elephant, buffalo, rhino, lion and leopard on day and night drives, and guided safari walks.
