Chobe Chilwero is located on the border of the Chobe National Park. Chilwero means “place of high view” in the local language of Setswana which accurately describes this exquisite lodge, set above the Chobe River with unparalleled panoramic views across the islands and flood plains as far as Namibia.

This boutique lodge has nine double and six twin luxury thatched cottages, all of which are individually designed to blend in perfectly with the topography and natural vegetation of the surrounding area.  For families the lodge offers 3 twin cottages next to each other. Each luxury cottage has its own en-suite bathroom with a large  free standing bath, rain shower and “sala” or private balcony, mosquito nets, ceiling fans and air-conditioning. The main public area includes an elegant lounge and dining room, which are linked to spectacular outdoor viewing patios.

For game viewing, Chobe Chilwero offers guests complete flexibility. The game drives are led by qualified professional guides in customised open 4 x 4 game viewing vehicles and especially adapted safari motorboats. Fishing excursions are also available on the Chobe River with tiger fish and bream being the main catch. Sundowner cruises are a highlight offering views of spectacular sunsets on the Chobe River. 

Kasane Airport Transfer Time: 10 minutes

Kasane
This property is located in the small but thriving town of Kasane, where many bigger hotels are located along the Chobe River banks.  Entry to Chobe National Park for game drives is via Sedudu Gate ten to fifteen minutes drive from town.  For Chobe River cruises, boats depart directly from town.  Although wildlife often passes through Kasane a typical bush experience is not on offer here.  Instead you’ll get all the comforts of civilization with easy access to the bush.
 

This property was last visited by a senior consultant of Safari Destinations in October 2019.
