Ichobezi House Boat

Ichobezi Safariboats – Luxury House Boat on the Chobe River – Botswana

If you are looking for Houseboats – The Ichobezi Safariaboats will promise you the ultimate river safari and a personlised experience unlike any other HouseBoat available to you. Breathtaking scenery, beautifully appointed rooms, tailor made excursions and excellent levels of service all combine to make the Ichobezi Safariboats stand out from the rest… and the only way to “Cruise into an African Adventure”.

We have a 15 year track record in the region translating into a wealth of knowledge about the area, the people and what makes this piece of Africa so special.
We take a maximum of 8 guests and provide a small, intimate and owner managed river safari.
There are no set departure dates or itineraries allowing clients to pick times that best suit them.
Ideal for small groups and families wanting their own personalised safari experience. Children are welcome.
We have the prime docking sites on the Chobe River allowing us to overlook the Chobe National Park every night. We never make use of the backwaters when docking.

We are not just a floating lodge and offer a genuine cruising experience taking in the best kept secrets of the Chobe and the surrounding wetlands.
The Safariboats are manoeuvrable allowing us to go further along the Chobe and beyond the reach of other boats.
Groups on board also have the option of longer stays, cruising through the Kasai Channel into the Zambezi River. Ideal for fishing groups.
Complete flexibility. Every group is encouraged to partake in all of the activities on offer, but clients choose, when, where and at what times. These activities include game cruises, birding, guided walks and fishing.

Guests are not obliged to share a larger tender boat with others on board so they can pursue their own interests at their own pace. There are three tender boats with each Safariboat for a maximum of 8 guests and there is no extra charge for the use of these personal tender boats.
Service levels are exceptionally high as we have 4 or 5 crew to attend to a maximum of 8 guests.
We have experienced local fishing guides with a lifetime of knowledge and skill. We provide, at no extra cost, excellent fishing tackle and lures.
We have a long history of community development and are very active in sponsoring local projects.
Superb meals are served using the very best ingredients and taking into account all guest dietary requirements.
The added advantage of being affiliated to a land based lodge (Ichingo Chobe River Lodge) offering you the opportunity to experience the diversity of the region.
