LAND BASED RIVER SAFARI

Ichingo Lodge

Explore

Game Viewing

Experience Chobe’s incredible wildlife from an entirely new perspective – on the water!

Unlike traditional land safaris, a boat-based game-viewing experience offers an uninterrupted view of animals as they gather along the riverbanks, allowing you to get closer to the action without the dust and crowds.

From the comfort of your private tender boat, you’ll glide through a network of waterways teeming with life. Watch herds of elephants cooling off in the shallows, pods of hippos jostling for space, and crocodiles basking along the riverbanks.

The Chobe River is famous for its exceptional wildlife encounters, and with a personal guide at your side, you’ll have the flexibility to spend as much time as you like at each sighting.

Plan Your Ideal Safari

While Ichingo Lodge is a tranquil retreat tucked away on Impalila Island, it offers easy access to the Chobe River and beyond. The Chobe National Park itself is a boat ride away, so plan your adventure with your guide to make the most of your time. Whether you set off for a morning exploration or a late afternoon cruise bathed in golden light, your guide will ensure you’re well prepared – stocking the cooler with your favourite drinks and packing snacks so you can fully immerse yourself in the experience.

A Perfect Safari Combo

Because Ichingo is located away from the busier sections of the Chobe, it’s an ideal destination to pair with a stay on one of the Zambezi Queen Collection houseboats. Experience a Chobe river safari from two unique vantage points – combining the privacy of a land-based lodge with the sweeping river views and luxury of a houseboat.

Whether you prefer the exclusivity of Ichingo or the spacious decks of the Zambezi Queen or the Chobe Princess – together they offer the ultimate way to explore the Chobe’s incredible diversity.
