Description
Ichingo Chobe River Lodge
Impalila Island
Located on the tree lined banks of Impalila Island, Ichingo Chobe River Lodge provides the very best game viewing in one of the most breathtaking areas between Namibia and Botswana. There is an abundance of birds, wildlife and it is an ideal family safari lodge.
The main guest area includes a comfortable lounge area with sofas, a bar area and an extensive deck and swimming pool overlooking the river. Communal meals are typically held under the stars. Each of the tents has it’s own dedicated guide and boat so guests have complete flexibility with activities.
For ideal wildlife viewing the months of May through to October are the best for large herds of game on the river banks. From November to April is especially good for birdlife as populations explode during breeding. For the fishing enthusiasts there is always a good chance of catching Tiger fish.
A sociable fire is lit each evening for pre dinner drinks or a night cap after your meal.
