Arrival / Okavango Delta
Once you’ve arrived in Johannesburg and have cleared customs and immigration, you’ll find a representative from African Sky welcoming you to South Africa. After completing a few formalities you’ll be escorted to the appropriate departure terminal where you’ll board a regional flight to Maun in Botswana. On arrival, you’ll be met and assisted in boarding a charter flight into the heart of one of Africa's most remote and untamed places. The Okavango River, rising in the highlands of Angola, never reaches the sea. Instead, its mighty waters disappear into the sands of the Kalahari. Here the thirst-land of the south meets a blue-green wilderness of fresh crystal-clear water, with emerald-green reed beds and towering trees.
Guests spend two nights at Xugana Island Lodge on a full board basis. Two game activities are conducted daily by experienced rangers and trackers in an area where the wilderness and the animals that grace it have largely survived untouched by time and humanity.
