Introduction
Chobe Game Lodge
must be in one of Africa's finest locations, overlooking from its shady walkways and
galleries, the placid Chobe River and the vast expanse of the Caprivi flood-plain beyond,
with its herds of elephant, buffalo and antelope. As the only permanent lodge within the
Chobe National Park, Chobe Game Lodge shares its space, 11 700 square kilometres, with
over 35 000 elephants.
Designed in the Moorish style the lodge has played host to a number of international
figures and events, the most famous of which was the wedding of Elizabeth Taylor and
Richard Burton.
Meals are served on the covered terrace and there are two bars, one of which has a
full-size billiard table. In addition, there is a lounge, a well-equipped curio shop and a
swimming pool.
The lodge also has a full-service conference facility offering seating for up to 100
delegates.
Moorish and graceful, the
high arches, barrel-vault ceilings and tiled floors create an atmosphere of spaciousness
and tranquillity. All 46 rooms are tastefully furnished and cooled by overhead
punkah-punkah fans and air-conditioning. For the connoisseur of luxury there are four
private suites, each with individual swimming pools and outside garden patio. All rooms
overlook the perennial Chobe river and the adjacent Caprivi flood-plain.
