    Okavango Delta

    Your safari begins with a 8:00 AM pick-up from your hotel, transferring directly to the mokoro station. Here, step into a traditional dugout canoe for a tranquil, leisurely journey through the lily-filled channels of the Okavango Delta, a world-renowned UNESCO World Heritage site. Arrive at a secluded island to set up camp, enjoy a fresh lunch, and unwind with a soothing riverside siesta in the heart of the wilderness. In the late afternoon, set off on a guided 2-hour nature walk to explore the surrounding island ecosystem up close and learn about the Delta's unique flora and fauna. Return to camp as the sun sets over the floodplains, where a hot bush shower awaits in the privacy of your tent. Gather around the crackling campfire for a delicious dinner and an intimate exchange of stories and local heritage, followed by stargazing through our camp telescope before retreating to your en-suite safari tent.
