Cruising up and down the Chobe River on the Nguni Voyager is a perfect way to enjoy a sedate river-based safari. In addition to a relaxing cruise there are opportunities for additional activities like game drives, walks and fishing.

A busy day on the Chobe River.
Attention to detail and an emphasis on great service is paramount on the Nguni Voyager.
There are eight staff in total to tend to all guests needs: this includes the captain, a hostess, a chef and deckhands. Each cabin can therefore have their own guide and tender boat should they wish to go on a private boat or fishing trip. At night when the houseboat is moored, they stay on another boat.
The main covered deck is very open and combines both relaxing lounge and dining areas that have surround views across the waterways. With deep leather sofas, and an open plan kitchen, there is a comfortable and relaxed feel on board Nguni. Added to this, a professional chef provides diverse and fabulous food and the open deck at the top is another space in which to relax on sun loungers or cool off in the jacuzzi.
The en-suite cabins are found on the lower deck and can convert to twin or double beds. Stretching from port to starboard, a breeze can blow through each spacious berth that are decorated in neutral tones whilst beds are made up with hand made linen and the compact bathrooms have a shower, toilet and washbasin.
During your time whilst being aboard the Nguni, it is possible to leave the boat and take a small boat out for closer game encounters along the rivers edge, private birding, fly and conventional fishing trips as well as visiting a local village.
A game drive into the Chobe National Park can be arranged at an extra cost. Alternatively, you may wish to stay on the boat and enjoy the game viewing from the top deck and relax for another African sundown.
The boat takes a maximum of ten people (unless you charter it privately) and due to the fact that people are often joining and leaving you won't necessarily share with the same people for your entire trip nights.
We would recommend a three night stay on the Nguni.
