Fly-in safari adventures and romantic honeymoon packages to tented camps scattered across one of Africa's unique wildlife havens - the Okavango Delta. Some of these safari packages explore only the Okavango. Other packages combine highlights in Botswana or top travel destinations in South Africa, Namibia, Zambia, and Mozambique with the Okavango Delta.
The Okavango Delta is a seasonal safari Eden sprung out of the surrounding Kalahari Desert. Every year, millions of animals flock to its waters in an epic seasonal gathering.
This package offers wildlife encounters in the wilderness areas of South Africa, Botswana, and Zimbabwe.
An exploration of the best safari areas in Botswana in combination with a visit to Victoria Falls from Zambia.
Savor the wilderness on an unforgettable experience in three of Botswana's finest safari destinations.
Regarded as one of nature's most spectacular masterpieces, the Okavango Delta offers its visitors the opportunity to explore one of Africa's supreme wilderness areas. A World Heritage Site, this boundless and unspoiled freshwater oasis stretches across the heart of Botswana's Kalahari Desert. The delta sustains incredible numbers of wildlife within a dramatic natural setting.
Despite its wild nature, the Okavango Delta remains accessible to safari enthusiasts. Guided game drives, bush walks, Mokoro, and boat safaris add to the wild appeal of an Okavango Delta safari. This African safari destination offers the widest range of safari activities available in Botswana and features some of Africa's most luxurious safari lodges.
Safeguarded by the Moremi Game Reserve and various private wildlife concessions, the Okavango Delta is an untouched haven to impressive numbers of elephants, buffalo, lions, hippos, giraffes, and zebra. A predator paradise, the Delta is a world-renowned stronghold for leopards, wild dogs, and many rare and unusual mammal and bird species.
Few places in the world offer a greater sense of remoteness and isolation, a place where man can reconnect with nature and leave behind the worries and frustrations of the modern world, even if only for a short period.
When visiting the Okavango Delta, the goal of your experience is mainly to maximize your game viewing. However, it is also essential to savor the small things - those fleeting moments where you truly realize the privilege of witnessing a particular sighting.
The Okavango is the pinnacle of safari destinations, gathering millions of animals and birds for a seasonal feast in the north of Botswana. Great herds migrate from far and wide to the delta as the desert shrubs give way to marshlands. The lodges in the Okavango Delta are among the most exclusive in the world, with only a handful of guests and only the best locations, with every comfort catered for.
Elephants, buffalo, lions, wild dogs, and many other large game and antelope species gather in large numbers and are sure sightings on a game drive. Fish Eagles and Kingfishers line the many meandering streams flowing through the open patches in the delta, waiting to cement a catch. Storks wade through the reeds, among them the critically endangered wattled crane, looking for their share of the feast. Swallow's wiz by above the waters, catching insects, with crocodiles and hippo coming up for air on the water’s surface below. The waters that fill the Okavango start their journey in the Angolan Highlands, many hundreds of kilometers away, and gather vital nutrients on their way to the Okavango Delta basin, with fish and other aquatic species hitching a ride.
Another unique aspect of the Okavango is the mode of safari—boats and local canoes are an exciting way to get around and particularly suited to seeing the many bird species that fish the delta’s waters. Equally, impressive are the islands within the delta, where the larger animals gather to feed and big predators hunt. Walking safaris can take guests up close to nature alongside an experienced team of guides for the more adventurous guests.
