Arrival & Sunset Mokoro

You will be picked up at Maun Airport where you will meet your ranger and guide. Depending on your time of arrival, you will have some time for a quick lunch or dip in the pool while exploring the lodge’s natural surroundings before leaving for an amazing 2-hour sunset mokoro safari on the Boteti River.

You will have the chance to spot some wildlife with hippos and crocodiles right at the river’s edge while witnessing some of the most amazing birdlife. Your experienced mokoro guide will point out several interesting aspects of the river and its wildlife during your mokoro trip. You'll then stop at one of the banks for a small refreshment while enjoying the magnificent sunset.

After your mokoro experience, you will have some time to freshen up and then join us around the open fire. You can take in the magnificent scenery around you while enjoying a delicious and traditionally prepared meal and a glass of wine while listening to the calls of the night.

Departure to Moremi Game Reserve for Game Drives

Departure to Moremi Game Reserve for Game Drives

After a delicious, cooked breakfast, your guide will have the vehicle ready and collect your luggage. After a briefing by your guide, make your way to the world-renowned Moremi Game Reserve, also known as the beating heart of the Okavango, approximately about 3 to 4 hours drive. Here your safari will begin. Some light snacks will be served shortly after entering Moremi while your game ranger uses his exceptional skills to interpret wildlife to you in a unique way.

An area of contrasts, Moremi is both a magical mix of winding waterways with a peninsula dry land referred to as the ‘Mopane Tongue’. The mopane trees thrive in this area, boasting excellent density and diversity of animal viewing, including the all-exciting leopard sightings.

Bordered by the Chobe National Park to the north, the reserve covers close to a third of the Okavango Delta’s total area.

Sit around the open fire and enjoy a delicious meal while listening to the calls of the night. We will overnight in Moremi.

Moremi Game Reserve

Rising at the crisp and crack of dawn, you will wake up to the sounds of birdcalls. As you step out of your tent, you will be greeted by friendly faces and a freshly brewed cup of tea or coffee. You will have some time to refresh while your hearty breakfast is made.

You will continue your safari and make your way to several places of interest within the reserve, including major floodplains, waterholes, and breeding areas for large animal herds. A pristine safari paradise, the Moremi Game Reserve preserves the heart of Africa’s finest wildlife viewing area known for the abundance of fascinating wildlife, with plentiful predators and prey to observe.

After a long and usually tiring but always exciting day, you will make your way late in the afternoon to your beautiful lantern-lit campsite. Here you will meet the rest of the camping team, often getting the smell of your traditional dinner being freshly prepared, as you approach.

Day 4

Moremi Game Reserve & Departure

Moremi Game Reserve & Departure

You will wake up to the beautiful sounds of the untouched African bushveld. This morning, an appetizing breakfast will be served for you to enjoy as you absorb the unlimited scenic views and wildlife chimes of this diverse reserve for one last time.

Today, bid farewell to this 'country full of rivers' and its magical acacia forests, mopane woodlands, papyrus rivers, floodplains, and lagoons as you embark on your final game drive and make your way back to Maun. With the free-flowing movement of wildlife, you could set sights on more fascinating wildlife to tick off your list.

Your ranger will speak to you and determine what you would still like to experience and what animals you would still like to encounter so that he could make a conscious effort in doing so on your final game of the tour.

Shortly after lunch, you will slowly be making your way back to Maun, where you will be dropped off (including at the airport).

This will be the end of your tour.
