Game viewing activities are personally tailored. Offerings include morning and late afternoon game drives, sunset boat cruises along the tranquil waters of the Chobe River, and fishing excursions.

Chobe National Park features abundant and diverse wildlife and is home to the largest concentration of elephants in Africa. During the dry season, these elephant herds, along with large herds of buffalo, congregate along the fertile floodplains of the Chobe River. Visitors may catch sight of puku, sable, giraffe, and roan antelope, as well as the rare aquatic Red Lechwe and indigenous Chobe Bushbuck. The abundant game supports a healthy population of predators, including large resident populations of lions, leopards, wild dogs, and cheetahs. The park is also home to the Big Five, as well as huge pods of hippos and crocodiles.

Chobe is rich in birdlife, with over 450 species, including the rare Pel's Fishing Owl and the distinctive, oddly-beaked African skimmer.
