Tips & Tricks from Real Parents
The boat safari on the Chobe River is better for kids than vehicle game drives close-up wildlife from water, no dust, and more comfortable.
Pack binoculars and a camera with good zoom. The elephants are close enough for great photos from the boat.
Combine with a day trip to Victoria Falls (1 hour drive) for the ultimate family adventure combo.
The sun is intense even in winter. Hats, sunscreen, and long sleeves are mandatory.
Stay at a family lodge like Chobe Game Lodge no kids under 12 restriction here.

A Real Parent's Story
The moment fifty elephants crossed the river in front of us
“Our boat drifted to a stop as a herd of elephants swam single-file across the Chobe River, trunks raised like snorkels. My kids were silent. Totally silent. They'd never seen anything that big and that peaceful.”
Read full story
My kids are 7 and 9 and usually bicker about everything. On the boat, a herd of elephants started their afternoon river crossing. The matriarch stopped, looked at our boat, then continued. My son whispered How many are there? I lost count at 40. They held hands watching. They havent fought since we came home.
— David, dad of 2 from Cape Town
