A reporter's experience at Chobe National Park

I was among a group of 18 local journalists, from both print and broadcast media, who were taken on a game drive by local tour operators, Upengu Tours and Safaris, under the auspices of the Citizen Entrepreneurial Development Agency (CEDA). I really was not sure what to expect, and everything was definitely a new experience for me.

We were split into three groups to ride in three tour vans that had been availed to us. The group that I was in had five journalists, some CEDA personnel plus our guide, Walter Chika.
