The Chobe National Park is one of Africa's finest game reserves with a reputation for the highest concentration of elephants worldwide! Enjoy remarkable game viewing and bird watching aboard the luxury safari boat, Ichobezi. The Ichobezi is able to travel and moor within the Chobe National Park and therefore early morning wilderness vistas and wildlife sightings, take on a far more intimate ambiance for those aboard the Ichobezi. View the magnificent bird life and an amazing variety of animals which come to drink at the river's edge as you slowly drift past.

The Ichobezi is a fantastic way to spend some time with family or a group of friends, with a small plunge pool to cool off midday, excellent cuisine, surrounded by nature - you just can't help but unwind in the company of close friends and family.

This incredible safari experience offers a unique opportunity to relax and enjoy a tranquil cruise in the Chobe National Park.

We would recommend the below 4 day itinerary. The easiest extensions to the Chobe House-boat itinerary are Okavango Delta for great safari experiences, Victoria Falls for some adventure activities or South Africa for further safari, beach or cultural experiences.

Day 1: Kasane - Chobe
Transfer by road from Livingstone, Victoria Falls or Kasane Airport to Kasane River Immigration office. From here a short trip across the river, to the confluence of the Chobe and Zambezi Rivers, takes you to Impalila Island. Here you will embark on the Ichobezi Luxury Safari boat. The Ichobezi is 18 metres long and boasts 4 en-suite cabins with sliding windows opening onto the water.

Day 2 & 3: Onboard Ichobezi – Chobe National Park
Spend your days game viewing or bird watching by boat in the Chobe National Park - a remarkable experience. Watch huge herds of elephants and a variety of other game come down to drink at the river. Relax on the upper deck of the safari boat or try your hand at fishing.

World famous for their Tigerfish and Bream, the Chobe and Zambezi Rivers will delight and challenge both the angling enthusiast and the novice. With over 100 kilometres of rivers and waterways available to guests, we offer you the best possible chance of experiencing the thrill of landing a legendary Tigerfish or the satisfaction of catching any one of the many other species found within the Chobe and Zambezi Rivers. The quality of your guides and their success in finding those elusive spots that will yield the best catches is well renowned.

The Impalila area is unique in that it offers year round Tiger fishing. This is due to the giant flood plains upstream which hold the annual Zambezi floodwaters, keeping it warm and nutritious and allowing incredible fish breeding habitat. During the winter months, floodwaters recede, leading to ideal Tiger feeding conditions when the rest of the river systems are too cold for Tigerfish activity.

Please remember that a strict catch and release policy in line with the conservationist ideals of the area is enforced.

For those looking for an even greater challenge, the unique rapids within the river systems offer unrivalled experiences for those wanting to enjoy the skillful art of fly-fishing. Knowledgeable guides, excellent boats and high-quality equipment all combine to make any stay on the Ichobezi Safari Boat an anglers idea of Utopia.

Day 4: Chobe - Kasane
Disembark in Kasane this morning and transfer back to Livingstone or Victoria Falls Airport for your onward journey. We recommend extending your stay to fully appreciate the magnificent Victoria Falls and surrounds.
