    We stayed there 3 nights and our kids wanted to stay longer. It is a nice little green compound right on the floodplain. We stayed in two cabins looking right onto the floodplain looking west into the sunset. So awesome! Bathrooms, showers, etc...

    This is a perfect location to stay before or after Savuti. The owners were lovely, and very passionate about the animals. The tours were well organised, and well run. We especially liked the bush walk.

    Mwandi was a very nice stopover for us for a night after many days in the bush. It was comfortable, facilities were great and the bar and deck are a nice treat with a great view of the waterhole.

Mwandi View is owner operated. Situated on the banks of the Chobe river with an abundance of wildlife and prolific birdlife, which makes it a popular venue for ornithologists. Close proximity to the Chobe National Park and is a good place to stop over enroute to Savuti. An electric fence provides security to 5 x tended units, 1 x family unit and 25 campsites. There is a restaurant and bar facility on the premises with a spacious deck to relax and enjoy the natural beauty and exquisite sunsets.
Our neighbourhood is wide open spaces on the banks of the Chobe river, wildlife being our neighbours. At night the bush comes alive with sounds of elephant, buffalo, zebra, hyena and lion as they move down toward the river to drink.
