Game Drive in Chobe: Because Who Doesn’t Want to See Elephants Like, Everywhere?
Alright, let’s be real—if you're in Chobe National Park and you don’t go on a game drive, were you even really there? A game drive is pretty much your passport to The Lion King meets a nature documentary, minus the British narrator (unless you’re lucky enough to find someone who sounds like David Attenborough, in which case, take their number). You can self-drive if you’re feeling brave, but trust us, letting a pro guide handle the wheel and animal spotting is probably your best bet. They know where the good stuff is.

What You Might See (Hint: Elephants, Lots of Elephants)
First off, let’s talk about the elephants. Chobe has the highest concentration of these giants on the planet, so odds are, you’ll see a bunch—no special safari skills required. They’ll be munching on trees, bathing in the river, or just strolling by like they own the place. Spoiler alert: they do.
But it’s not just about the elephants. Oh no, Chobe is practically Africa’s version of a wildlife Instagram feed. You’ll also spot buffalo, zebra, giraffe, and even the sneaky hyena trying to look innocent (but we know better). Plus, get ready for some red lechwe (which, in case you were wondering, is a type of antelope) and the kind of hippos and crocs you’d normally only see in your worst nightmares—except they’re real, and you’re that close.
Pro Tip: Keep Your Eyes Open, Like Really Open
Here’s the deal: game drives are like the world’s most intense episode of Where’s Waldo, but with way cooler animals. You might spot something exciting, or you might just see a bush… until it suddenly moves and—BOOM—it’s a hyena. So, stay alert! It’s a good idea to have your camera ready at all times, because the moment you think nothing’s happening, an elephant could decide to walk right past your jeep, and you’ll want that on film.
So, buckle up, because a game drive in Chobe is one wild ride. Whether it’s elephants galore, sneaky crocs, or that one giraffe doing a weird dance (okay, maybe not), there’s always something to see. Just remember to enjoy the ride—because the animals sure are.
