    Maun to Moremi Game Reserve

    Your trip begins as you fly over herds of elephants while on your short charter flight from Maun International Airport north to Moremi Game Reserve. We're there to meet you as you step off the plane into the game reserve, located inside the famous Okavango Delta, the largest inland delta in the world. There is more animal diversity in the Okavango Delta than in any other part of Botswana.

    Xakanaxa / Xini (Moremi Game Reserve)

    You'll spend several days exploring the Moremi Game Reserve and camping in the Xakanaxa region on the north-eastern side of the Moremi Game Reserve. The reserve is considered to have some of the best wildlife viewing areas. You'll quickly fall under the enchantment of the seasonal flood plains, large lagoons, wooded islands, riverine forests, and, most of all - the wildlife! Keep your camera close at hand as Moremi is Africa's best game reserve for viewing the endangered African Wild Dog, not to mention at least four Lion prides and multiple herds of Elephants. Lechwe antelopes are also commonly found in the area.

    Xakanaxa to Khwai

    The fourth day is a day filled with adventure! Following an early morning breakfast, you'll take a slow drive through Moremi Game Reserve northeast towards the Khwai Community Area, complete with an open-air picnic. The day's journey follows the Manuchira Channel, which is known as the Khwai River at its easternmost extremity. The path weaves from the riverside and floodplains into the Mopane tree woodlands that make Khwai one of the most scenic areas in the Okavango Delta. Just keep your hand on your camera because, on our way to the Khwai Community Area, you'll pass the magnificent Dombo Hippo pools in the morning, stopping to enjoy the scenery and the antics of the resident Hippo. The eastern Mopane forest is also home to breeding herds of Elephants. Bull Elephants hang along the riverside most of the year and revel in the cool water of the Khwai. While drinking and bathing, they are far more approachable here than among the breeding herds. The river also has a high density of Hippos, as well as Crocodiles, Leopards, Lions, and Cheetahs. Both Xakanaxa and Khwai are included in the home ranges of different packs of Wild Dogs. You may also notice Southern Giraffes, Burchell Zebras, Greater Kudu, Tsessebe, Waterbuck, and Sable Antelope.

    Khwai Exploration

    You'll spend your time between the Leadwood and Camel Thorn woodlands, savannahs, the riverside, and the marshy backwater of the Khwai. Khwai is a predator-rich area known for having a high concentration of all types of wildlife and is one of the best places in the Okavango Delta for Elephants. The river also draws a healthy population of other animals, such as Red Lechwe, Impala, Hippo, and Zebra. Buffalo use this area seasonally, with large herds moving in during the dry season.

The river also draws a healthy population of other animals, such as Red Lechwe, Impala, Hippo, and Zebra. Buffalo use this area seasonally, with large herds moving in during the dry season. The Khwai is also an ideal location for a Mokoro (shallow canoe) safari. Today, you'll have a chance to explore the Okavango and go to places only accessible by Mokoro. You'll be able to photograph aquatic birds, plants, and water lilies at eye level as you'll be low to the water. During this excursion, you'll be guided by an expert "poler" (a guide at the rear of the boat that moves it along with a long pole) through the bulrushes (plants) and marshes. (*Note: Mokoro excursions are dependent on the water level in the channel. If the water isn't high enough, then all our activities will be game drives.)

    Khwai to Savuti

    On a moving day like today, you’ll grab everything you want to bring along with you for the whole day out in the bush because after your early morning breakfast and morning game drive, you’ll travel north to Savuti. The entire drive takes place through game-rich areas and varying landscapes, and is therefore an extension of your daily game drives. A picnic lunch will be served en-route. Finally, when the sun sets, you’ll arrive at your new camp to find everything already set up and waiting for you to enjoy. The Savuti region is located within the heart of Chobe National Park, offering a unique mix of marshlands, open savannahs, and more. It’s most well-known for its high concentration of predators, particularly Lions, as well as its abundant Elephant population. Savuti offers dramatic game viewing and a somewhat eerie atmosphere. It is also well known as one of the best areas for big cat viewing.

    Savuti

    Today you’ll wake up before sunrise for a quick, light breakfast then head out for your early morning game drive. You’ll explore Savuti’s enchanting landscapes with opportunities to enjoy up-close-and-personal encounters with an exciting mix of Elephants, Zebra, Giraffe, Leopard, Cheetah, Wild Dog, Lion, and more. There’s also an abundance of bird life. The Savuti Lion pride has earned a fearsome reputation for hunting Elephant, but other predators like Leopard, Wild Dog, Spotted Hyena and even Cheetah are also abundant in the area. You’ll have the best chance of seeing a hunt during the cool morning hours when most animals are more active. As the sun rises higher and the day heats up, you’ll have the choice of heading back to camp for lunch or staying out on your game drive. A picnic lunch will be served at a scenic spot chosen by your guide. Continue on your game drive thereafter, and enjoy a blissful sunset as the animals once again take advantage of the cooler weather to become more active. You’ll head back to camp at sunset to enjoy an evening around the campfire. Share your experiences with your fellow safari guests, enjoy a delicious meal prepared by the safari chef, and then get a great night’s rest in preparation for the next day.

    Savuti to Kasane

    Wake up early on your final morning for a light breakfast before heading further north – this time to Kasane, a town located in the northeastern corner of Botswana, near the borders with Namibia, Zambia and Zimbabwe. Once again this will be in the form of a game drive as you will be driving through the Chobe National Park - believed to be the best “year-round wildlife photography destination in Africa”, until you reach Kasane. Around lunch time, you’ll stop for a cold meal out in the bush before continuing on your journey. After a long drive you’ll arrive at your lodge in Kasane in time for a sunset boat cruise on the mighty Chobe River. A highlight is to see a whole herd of Elephants splashing across the river, followed by an entertaining mud bath and dusting rituals. However, it’s not just the Elephants that keep us busy on a safari on the Chobe River. Herds of Buffalo, Red Lechwe, Waterbuck and Puku inhabit the floodplains during the dry season – along with Hippos, Crocodiles, Water Monitors and an astonishing variety of birds. When predators like Lion or Leopard come down to drink, the biggest advantage of being on a boat is that you can photograph them head on and at eye level, which always produces a wonderfully intimate portrait. Catch a glimpse of the majestic Chobe River sunset and hear the echoing calls of African Fish Eagles, before heading back to the lodge to enjoy a hot meal overlooking the Chobe River. Retire to your comfortable rooms for a good nights’ rest.

Getting There

Sir Seretse Khama International Airport, also known as Gaborone Airport, is the main airport in Botswana. It is located 15 km from Gaborone, the capital.

Most visitors to Botswana will have a stopover in South Africa to pick up a direct flight from OR Tambo International Airport (JNB), Johannesburg or Cape Town International Airport (CPT).
In most cases, your tour operator will collect you from the airport and will arrange all further transportation.
