If you're going to Victoria Falls, you should definitely plan a day trip to Chobe National Park. It's a great way to get out of the city and see some animals without having to travel too far.
A day trip from Victoria Falls to Chobe National Park is the perfect way to get a taste of what Zimbabwe has to offer. You'll spend the morning at Victoria Falls, watching the spray from the falls and taking in its beauty. Then, you'll head just across the border into Botswana for a wildlife safari through Chobe National Park.
The falls are located about 12 miles outside of Livingstone, Zambia, which is home to many hotels and resorts. The Zambezi River forms here and drops about 300 feet over a distance of about 1 mile. It's one of nature's most impressive sights, with huge volumes of water flowing freely over the edge into a gorge below.
After exploring the falls, you'll head across the border into Botswana for your wildlife safari at Chobe National Park. This park is home to elephants, lions, leopards, hippos—you name it! There are also plenty of birds around; it's hard not to be overwhelmed by all of this variety all at once.
The park also offers many other activities including boat rides on Lake Kariba (which borders Zimbabwe) and fishing trips on the Zambezi River (which runs through Zambia). There are also several cultural museums within Chobe National Park that feature artifacts from local tribes such as the Bemba people.
This trip can be done on your own or as part of an organized excursion with an operator such as Victoria Falls Activity Centre. You can rely on them for a day trip from Chobe National Park to Victoria Falls or the vice-versa.
