The hotel pick-ups begin around 07:00 AM. Guests are transported by road from Livingstone, taking about a 1-hour drive to Kazungula, a one-stop border where you will complete passport formalities for both the Zambian and Botswana sides after crossing the newly constructed Kazungula bridge. A guide on the Botswana side will be waiting for you. Once you meet the guide, you will drive to our Botswana office for a short briefing about the activity. After the briefing, the guides will decide whether to start with a game drive, lunch, and then a river safari cruise, or in the reverse order.

Chobe day trip! - The trip to Chobe was fantastic. The two guys who picked us up were punctual and drove us to the Botswana border via the new bridge. It's worth noting that the boat trip and the safari are operated by different companies and intermediaries, so the people who pick you up may not be the same ones who take you on the safari. The only downside was that the game drive safari in Chobe felt a bit rushed, lasting less than two hours. I believe this was because the boat safari ran late after our boat broke down, which caused delays to other activities. However, I can't fault the guys who run this organization—they were polite and well-mannered, truly showcasing the beautiful spirit of the Zambian people! I will definitely be recommending them to everyone interested in going.

Chobe Day Trip - Great day out! From the professional pick up, on time, at our lodge to returning home, nothing was a problem for HSM. Easy transfer through immigration into Botswana. Got 2 great games drive, one on land, the other by boat. Guides were professional and knowledgeable and put us onto some great animals. Lion cubs, crocs feeding, baby hippo and elephant. Would definitely recommend

Chobe Park day trip was a success! - Excellent trip! Really enjoyed wild life. Even saw lions pride with cubs. Lots of elephants with "kids" as well and all sorts of other beasts!:-). Yammy lunch in between 4x4 overland and river parts of the tour. Overall, good value. Easy and fast communication. Great team work. Thank you for experience.
