Chobe/Linyanti/Savute

Forming one of Botswana’s most compelling safari circuits, Chobe, Linyanti, and Savute offer an extraordinary combination of wildlife, wilderness, and water. This remarkable region delivers some of the most rewarding safari experiences in the country, with each area offering its own distinct character and appeal. Chobe is best known for its dense elephant concentrations that are often observed along water edges creating a sight to behold.

Linyanti offers a far more remote and intimate experience, with its wetland habitats, seasonal floodplains, and water channels attracting excellent predator encounters and abundant game. The region is especially rich in marshes and floodplains, drawing large numbers of plains game as well as predators, while its excellent birding adds another layer for those who appreciate diversity in their safari. With fewer vehicles and a quieter atmosphere, Linyanti allows for a more secluded and immersive connection with the wilderness.

Savute adds a dramatic contrast, with wide-open plains, ancient waterways, and a well-earned reputation for outstanding predator action, particularly lions and hyenas. The predator sightings are often especially intense around the Savute Marsh and surrounding grasslands, where lions frequently take centre stage. The area is also known for hyena, elephant, and a wide variety of plains game, while its shifting landscapes and raw, untamed beauty provide a striking complement to the lush river ecosystems of Chobe and Linyanti.

For safari goers seeking exceptional wildlife viewing in luxurious surroundings, Chobe, Linyanti, and Savute combine to create an unforgettable and exclusive safari experience. Let your safari dreams unfold as you step into the wild, untamed magic of northern Botswana.
