10 - DAY OKAVANGO DELTA CAMPING TRIP

We pick you up from Maun airport and take you to the campsite. We have a small briefing on the tour.

Today, we jumping aboard a traditional mokoro – a dugout canoe steered by friendly local 'polers' – for an Okavango waterways experience. With some luck, we could spot some of the delta's unusual wildlife and exotic birdlife. Spend some time today exploring the maze of lagoons, lakes, and streams on foot too, led by experienced local guides. Tonight, we camp on a remote island right in the heart of the wilderness, falling asleep to the humming and buzzing of the African heartlands.

We watch the sun rise over the Delta on a short early morning hike, We have Breakfast and then get back to the Mogoro station on the Mokoros. The Afternoon is spent on our own leisure and optional activities. Like taking a flight over the delta, game viewing on horseback, or just exploring the town and marketplaces. 

We have an early breakfast before we make it into the Moremi Reserve with an open-game vehicle. Moremi Game Reserve is in northern Botswana, in the Okavango Delta, which becomes a lush animal habitat during seasonal floods. Dugout canoes are used to navigate past birdlife, hippos, and crocodiles on waterways like the Xakanaxa Lagoon. On land, wildlife includes lions, leopards, and rhinos. Safari camps are common, with several dotted around large Chief's Island and the forested Mopane Tongue Peninsula. We overnight in the Moremi

At the Daybreak, we start to explore the Moremi. The Moremi is home to the most endangered species of large mammals: the cheetah, white rhinoceros, black rhinoceros, African wild dog, and lion. Over 500 bird species (from water birds to forest dwellers) and over 1.000 species of plants are also recognized in the Moremi. This ecosystem is amongst the richest in Africa. And thanks to effective protection, the flora and fauna is relatively undisturbed.

We say goodbye to the Okavango Delta and continue our trip to Nata where we booked in at Elephant Sands. At the natural water well in front of the lodge, you can see the elephants drink just a few meters away, a unique experience! There are no fences around the accommodation, so other wild animals also roam freely here. We visit the bird sanctuary at the Makgadikgadi saltpans.

We enjoy Breakfast and say goodbye to Elephant Sand as we make our way to the North and put up our camp on the outskirts of the Chobe National Park. We have time to spend on our own leisure till 15h00. We can exchange some money or get some souvenirs.  We then go on a Sunset boat trip on the Chobe River and into the Chobe National Park.

Early morning, we go into the Chobe National Park with an open Game vehicle. When we return we have some Brunch before we continue to Zimbabwe and to Victoria Falls. We booked our optional activities for the next day. 

Today is spent on one's own leisure with the activities that you had booked the day before. We get together at 15h00 as we go on a sunset Dinner cruise.

After we have Breakfast your been taken to Victoria Falls National Airport where we say our Goodbays.
