Luxurious hilltop lodge above the Chobe River, Chobe Chilwero pairs polished comfort with front-row wildlife drama. Fifteen air-conditioned suites with private gardens, a split-level pool and one of Botswana’s only full treetop spas look out over floodplains where vast elephant herds glide at golden hour. Days swing between classic game drives and languid boat safaris, with easy cross-border links to Victoria Falls for a show-stopping add-on.

Packing Tips

Neutral layers for dawn drives, a light windbreaker for river cruises, swimsuit for the pool/spa, wide-brim hat and polarized sunglasses, soft-sided daypack for camera and binoculars.

Insider Tips

Ask the team to set a private dinner on your suite’s deck after a sunset cruise. If you’re in the Pool Suite, request a “starlight turn-down” and late spa slot in the treetop room to finish. Families: pre-book a private vehicle if travelling with under-6s.
