Chobe River Camp
Lodge and campsite · Namibia, 4 km from the Ngoma border post on the B8; reached through the Ngoma border · Gondwana Collection Namibia
Mid-range
Outside the gate
Safari company
A Gondwana Collection lodge with a separate campsite in Namibia's Zambezi Region, 4 km from the Ngoma border post on the B8 and about 60 km west of Kasane. It is sometimes listed among Kasane lodges, but it is in Namibia: you reach it by road through the Ngoma border, and the park's Ngoma Gate, at the western end of the riverfront, is beside that border post. That makes it a practical overnight stop for self-drivers arriving from the Zambezi Region or heading there. Gondwana is a Namibian lodge group. Rates, capacity and activities were not read, so check them with Gondwana before you plan around it.

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.
The full fee schedule for Chobe National ParkRates at Chobe River Camp
Rates on request. No rate was read on Gondwana's pages. The price band shown is an estimate; ask Gondwana for current lodge and camping rates.
What the rate covers is not confirmed. We do not know yet whether meals, drinks and activities are included, so read this as the bed only.
Every figure on this page is in US dollars.
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.
