Chobe is one of the oldest safari destinations in Africa and David Livingstone first visited the area in 1850. It is made up of four main sectors: the central pans, the Linyanti marshes, the Chobe River and the Mababe Depression. The wet and the dry season are vastly different and from April to November, during the dry season the game migrates to the north and western areas of the park. During the rainy season from December to March, the plains are covered with lush grasses and the area is teeming with wildlife.
