Top-end
Inside the park
Safari company
Five Meru-style tents on the Savuti Channel, run by SKL Group of Camps, the Kasane company that also holds the park's Savuti and Linyanti campgrounds. Sun Destinations in Cape Town sells it internationally through the campsavuti.com site. The format is classic and simple: two guided game drives a day on the Savuti Marsh, a newly built main area, and a rate that covers meals, drinks, laundry and park fees. Fly-in guests land at the Savuti airstrip, about 40 minutes' flight from Maun or Kasane. Self-drivers are accepted too and pay their own gate fees. SKL does not say whether it is citizen-owned, so the camp is filed under Safari company.

What the park charges on top
The rate above buys you a bed. Chobe National Park charges its own entry fee for every day you are inside. Here is what that adds up to.
- Park entryP270 a day for non-residents, roughly $20 at P13.5 to the dollar.
- $20per person, per day
- VehicleP115 a day for a foreign-registered vehicle, roughly $9 (P30 for a Botswana-registered or hired car).
- $9per vehicle, per day
Three nights means three days inside, so two adults sharing one vehicle pay $147 in park fees before anyone pays for a bed.

Rates checked on 4 October 2026, per person per night sharing, from each property's own website or rate sheet where one is published. Desert & Delta, Belmond, &Beyond, Bush Ways, Machaba and several Kasane lodges publish none, so those figures come from two resellers, chobe.com and the Siyabona network (safari.co.za), and are marked as a reseller rate; the houseboat and Ichingo figures from chobe.com are in South African rand. SKL's campsite table is undated. Kwando Safaris, African Bush Camps and several smaller lodges publish no rates at all. Park entry is P270 per non-resident per day for a private visitor and P190 on an operator's activity, and many Kasane packages leave it out, so check what your rate includes.
