Zambia via Botswana
This is a top pick! ... We were shooting for Livingston, Zambia, but we were not allowed to drive into Zambia according to our rental agreement. The Namibia-Botswana border was no problem, though we did have to press all of our shoes on a mat soaked in biocide. The Botswanan ...
Bovu Island and Mr. John
This is a top pick! I woke this morning to find myself in paradise. It felt like I was near the ocean, because the ground was sand and I knew I was on an island. But, no, just on the Zambezi River. We were to go back to mainland Zambia for a few hours of plant walking ...
Victoria Falls and to the Middle of the River
This is a top pick! Today I woke feeling 100%. I continued with the meds that obviously helped. The plan for the day was to head to Victoria Falls. We hired a dready cab driver and got to the Falls around 9. It was $10 to enter the park to see the Falls. At first site ...
The Caprivi Strip
This is a top pick! Today we tried to make it across the border into Botswana. We first had to get to and across the Caprivi Strip, a small strip of land who's people resisted Namibian and South African governments for over a decade. They were finally brutalized into ...
Gameless Game Drive in Chobe!
This is a top pick! ... , with the addition of a pre-scrub, also existed for the washing up the pots and pans. Now on to the important stuff. Tried 2 Botswana beers that evening. Lt. Louis and Hansa. What a load of crap. No offense to Bud drinkers, but this stuff really did ...
Drifting down the Zambezi
This is a top pick! A... Once we'd got used to Zimbabwean inflation in Harare we headed North East to Lake Kariba, lying between Zimbabwe and Zambia. In 2001 US$1 would buy you ZIM$38, today it'll get you ZIM$5,500 in a bank, or ZIM$8,000 on the black market, and it ...
Botswana - Chobe National Park
This is a top pick! ... took a leisurely cruise on the Chobe river along the edge of the park. The Chobe river is the border between Namibia and Botswana, and many animals are found along the shores or crossing the river. The number of hippos and elephants that we spotted ...
Being Rescued from the Sand
This is a top pick! ... that they were 6 South African / Zimbabwean friends who were enjoying their retirement by going on a 4x4 expedition through the Kalahari and Botswana. I could have kissed them when they said they had a tow rope. And so we all set to work, with one eye ...
Next Country!
This is a top pick! ... This was important, as, depending on the decision, a large island, (known as Kasikili or Seddudu by Namibia and Botswana, respectively) would fall into national territory. The Botswana government considered the island as an integral part of the Chobe ...

A View to A Kill
This is a top pick! ... where moneyed tourist come to spend vast sums of cash to see African wildlife at it's finest and most abundant. In my travels through Botswana I'd heard a lot about Chobe, and had chalked it up to my list of places to visit on my next tour of Africa. But ...
Tiger moths and staring the overland tour
This is a top pick! ... , great views, wind blowing through the truck with Paul Simon playing on the Ipod. A bit of a different experience to public transport. Botswana must have been the quickest border crossing I'd had, not even a form to fill in! The real bonus though was ...
Hippos, Crocs and so much more
This is a top pick! The last National Park of the overland tour - Chobe NP in Botswana. The landscape is quite different to the other parks we've been to because of the Chobe River, which runs along the side of the park. This means there are still the same arid areas as in ...
Ode to a Crappy Canadian TV Show
This is a top pick! This is in appreciation of a crappy Canadian television show that was made in the 70's and early 80's. I never realized how much impact it had on me. It was called "The Littlest Hobo". Those of you who know it, sing along. "Maybe Tomorrow" ...
The Chobe National Park
This is a top pick! Our goal was to make our way to Chobe National Park, in northwest Botswana, which has one of the largest concentration of animals in Africa. We came looking for hippopotamus, which we had not seen so far on the trip. The best time to see them is on a ...
Elephants, Elephants, Elephants!
This is a top pick! ... out, a short ferry ride across the Zambezi, and we (I was travelling with an Israeli Canadian name Aric) were through customs and into Botswana. While we were waiting on the Zambian side for the ferry, I thought we might be able to get a ride into ...

Clutch plate, who needs them anyway?
This is a top pick! Monday afternoon we departed for Kasane, a town just a few km south of the Zambia border. We arrived at camp and took a quick swim in the pool. From our elevated view at the bar, we watched with blind eyes as the security guard stood smiling and shaking ...
Safari in Chobe
This is a top pick! ... ... Nous savons plus ou moins l’endroit où nous souhaitons aller... alors, quand j'ai entendu les nouvelles des parcs nationaux au Botswana, mon cœur a sombré et tout ce que j’ai pensé: un autre endroit! Le Kenya et la Tanzanie ont ...
We eat worms !
This is a top pick! Today, we sleep in. Lazy breakkie at 10. We drive to town: do our laundry and go to the internet cafe. The connection are very slow. Cannot send you my movies! Then: a bad thunderstorm and I mean: bad. The internet crashes every 10 minutes. After an ...
Day 19 - An African Souvenir
Ah yes, September 1st. A date I'm still reminded of daily. It's the day I got a special "souvenir" from Africa. After our border crossing and a fairly uneventful afternoon, a group of us headed out for Zambia on a sunset cruise down the Zambezi ...

Sunday 30th August. Our new group set off from Grubby’s and headed across the border into Botswana where we camped at a town called Kasane which is on the Chobe river of the Chobe national park area. We camped at the Thebe river campsite. Here we ...
