7 Day Okavango Delta, South Africa

Day 1 Chobe Botswana

This morning is spent at your leisure exploring the town of Livingstone, before departing for Botswana. We set up camp on the edge of the Chobe National Park before exploring the Chobe River on a magical sunset cruise. (D)

Day 2 Maun Botswana

Up at daybreak, we have the opportunity to take an optional open vehicle game drive into the famous Chobe National Park. After breakfast, we depart for Maun, the gateway to the Okavango Delta. (BD)

Day 3 Okavango Delta Botswana

We venture into the wild bush of Africa, far from any civilisation. Our trip begins by 4x4 Land Rover across the ‘Buffalo Fence’ into the wildlife area. Once in the Delta, we join local villagers/guides on mokoros (traditional dugout canoes) and begin our search for the abundance of wildlife that inhabits the Delta. We set up camp on an island in the Delta and enjoy an evening under the African skies. (BLD)

Day 4 Okavango Delta Botswana

This is a unique opportunity to live under nature’s rules. Rising with the sun, we enjoy more poling on the mokoros, drifting silently through the channels. We also undertake game walks in the Delta, tracking different animals, learning their habits and understanding nature’s finer details. This is also a great opportunity to learn about the people of the area, each mokoro has a polar or local guide who grew up in the area and lives in the local village. These people work together in a community tourism initiative. After a breathtaking sunset, we relax around the campfire listening to the sounds the night has to offer. (BLD)

Day 5 Okavango Delta/Leroo La Tau Botswana

We leave behind the tranquillity and memories offered by the Delta on our last mokoro trip before transferring back to Maun. Our journey continues to Leroo La Tau Lodge “Spoor of the Lion” which is situated near the dry Boteti River. This special surrounding allows us to take part in activities such as game walks, accompanied by skilled guides or a visit to the site of the famous Bane's Baobab at the edge of Kudiakam Pan. (BD)

Day 6 Khama Rhino Sanctuary Botswana

This morning we once again have the option to explore this area on various guided excursions before heading for the Khama Rhino Sanctuary, where we spend the evening camping within the reserve. (BLD)

Day 7 Johannesburg South Africa

Today we drive through to Johannesburg, arriving in the early evening. (B)
