Day 1-2

Welcome to the Okavango Delta

Welcome to the Okavango Delta

Your safari begins in the Okavango Delta, one of Africa’s most extraordinary wilderness areas. From Maun, travel to Xaoo Safari Camp for your first two nights in the bush.

Settle into camp and begin exploring the surrounding landscapes with experienced local guides. Your days are structured around approximately two safari activities per day, typically taking advantage of the cooler morning and afternoon hours when wildlife is most active.

During the Green Season, the Okavango takes on a completely different character. The vegetation is fresh and green, summer skies provide spectacular light and birdlife is particularly impressive as resident species are joined by seasonal migrants. The rains also coincide with the arrival of many young antelope and other animals, bringing new energy to the ecosystem.

Between activities, return to camp for meals and time to relax, enjoying the sounds and atmosphere of the African bush.

Main Destination:

Best Time To Visit July to October (Best wildlife viewing)

Day 3-4

Khwai & Moremi Game Reserve (East)

Khwai & Moremi Game Reserve (East)

After breakfast, continue by road towards Khwai, travelling through the changing landscapes of northern Botswana.

Khwai is one of Botswana’s most rewarding safari areas. Situated along the Khwai River and bordering the Moremi Game Reserve, the region combines riverine forest, open floodplains, mopane woodland and seasonal wetlands. Importantly, there are no fences separating these wilderness areas, allowing wildlife to move naturally between Moremi and the surrounding concessions.

Spend two nights at African Excursions, using the camp as your base for exploring the Khwai wilderness.

Morning and afternoon safari activities provide opportunities to search for the region’s diverse wildlife. Elephant, buffalo, giraffe, zebra and numerous antelope species are regularly encountered, while Khwai is also well known for its predators, including lion, leopard and African wild dog.

Day 5-6

Welcome to Chobe Riverfront

Welcome to Chobe Riverfront

After your final morning in Khwai, transfer to the nearby airstrip and board a light aircraft flight to Kasane.

Flying between Botswana’s safari regions is an experience in itself. From the air, you gain a completely different perspective of the wilderness below, with waterways, floodplains and woodland stretching towards the horizon.

On arrival in Kasane, transfer to Water Lily Lodge for two nights and begin exploring the famous Chobe region.

During your stay, combine a game drive in Chobe National Park with a boat safari on the Chobe River. From the safari vehicle, explore the riverfront and surrounding woodland in search of elephants, buffalo, antelope, predators and abundant birdlife.

The boat safari offers a completely different experience. Travelling quietly along the river provides excellent opportunities to watch elephants and other wildlife approaching the water, while hippos, crocodiles and numerous waterbirds inhabit the river itself.

Main Destination:
Chobe Riverfront (Chobe NP)
Best Time To Visit April to October (Best at the riverfront area)
High Season July to October (The park gets crowded)
Best Weather May to August (Less hot during the day)
