James Wilson, Marketing Director of Desert and Delta Safaris, lived for many years at their lodge Chobe Game Lodge in the Chobe National Park. James joins me today to talk about the park that was literally his back yard for years. We chat about Savuti and the landscape and wildlife of this area before moving onto discussions about the Chobe Waterfront. We look at what makes it worth visiting and how to have a unique experience in this busy corner of Botswana - busy with wildlife and visitors! James mentions some less known regions of Chobe and we briefly discuss where to stay in the Kasane area.
