River View Lodge

Tudo excecional. Excelente base para visitar o Chobe e todas as atividades associadas. Contavamos apenas ficar para dormir, acabamos por fazer tudo no Lodge, desde os jantares, às actividades! Têm jipe para safari, camião e barco! Por isso, oferecem uma experiência personalizada, de qualidade e a valores muito competitivos quando comparados com as agências. A comida também excecional, não só no hotel, mas também a servida nas atividades. A simpatia genuína de todos os funcionários, vira certamente também dos proprietários, que fazem de tudo para que se sinta bem. Se pensa visitar o Parque Chobe, não hesite: reserve no River View Lodge - só terá que desfrutar das suas férias, sem mais nenhuma preocupação!

We loved our stay at the Chobe River Lodge!! I came here with my husband as the last stop on our honeymoon after previously staying at 2 lodges that were on private reserves. What I would say is, don't judge a book by it's cover. Driving up to the hotel, we were not expecting to be so close to resident homes and a bit off the beaten path. But it really is a lovely hotel! Really clean, renovated nice rooms, and wonderful staff! They offer breakfast, a late lunch, and dinner every night .The dinner seating is communal so every sits around 7:30 to eat together after their final game drive or river cruise for that night. They went above and beyond one night when the options were pork or lasagna and I don't eat pork or cheese so they made me something else that I was able to eat which was so nice! Then the next day at lunch I found a small pasta dish that was made specially without cheese. It was such a nice detail that was unnecessary but so accommodating. We took a game drive with John and he was by far our favorite guide of our entire trip. We couldn't believe how much he knew!! For example, all of the cars were gathering to see a couple of lions in the field. When the lions walked away, he told our car that we should stay and wait it out because those lions are going to go on a hunt soon. He told us that patience would be rewarded. So we waited about 10 minutes and LO AND BEHOLD the lions started to actually hunt the buffalo!! And then at each step he would tell us what was going to happen before it happened - the lion would try to separate the pack, they wouldn't go for the buffalo on the end because they were too strong so they'd go for the 2nd one that looked weaker (I still don't know how he knew that), etc.) He was exceptional. We can't stop talking about our drive with him. Overall, great lodge with great staff that won't break the bank!

A lovely peaceful place to stay. Friendly staff. Excellent boat trips on river where the game is unbelievably plentiful. Good guides. Game drives in early mornings by all included. Nice food. Comfortable rooms. All day coffee and chilled water. Lovey place to explore Chobe game reserve.
