Day 2: Chobe National Park Safari

The day begins early with a warm greeting of water poured into your basin and a cheerful Botswana “dumela” (good day). After a refreshing cup of tea or coffee and a light continental breakfast, you’ll set off for an early morning game drive. This time of day offers the best chance to spot big cats or wild dogs, as they are still active in the cool morning hours.
