The Chobe River forms the northern boundary of Chobe National Park and is one of southern Africa’s most rewarding wildlife riverfronts, especially in the dry season when animals concentrate along its banks. Elephant herds gather in large numbers at the water’s edge, hippos crowd the channels, and buffalo move regularly through the floodplain grasslands, while lions range through the wider system and may hunt buffalo in the surrounding landscape. The river also supports exceptional birdlife across reeds, sandbanks, and woodland edges, and visitors typically explore it through guided game drives on designated park tracks as well as boat safaris that bring them level with elephants and hippos along the shoreline.
NG12 Concession lies in the northern Okavango Delta of Botswana, forming a remote mosaic of seasonal floodplains, palm-studded islands, waterways and mopane woodland. As a private wilderness area, it offers an intimate safari atmosphere with limited camps and few vehicles, creating a sense of seclusion between land and water. Visitors experience game drives, mokoro journeys in season, and guided encounters with elephants, lions, wild dogs and rich birdlife across changing floodplains. Sunlight flickers across still channels, papyrus rustles in the breeze, and evenings bring the calls of frogs and distant predators. Camps are typically small and rustic, shaped by the shifting moods of the floodplains and the rhythm of the Delta itself.
