Itinerary

This is a sample itinerary. Our Destination Specialists will work with you to create an itinerary to meet your preferences.

Days 1-2Arrive Maun, Botswana and Journey to Okavango Delta | Meals: B L D

From Maun, Botswana, you will board a light aircraft to your camp in the heart of the Okavango Delta. Accommodation for two nights is in a Wilderness Classic Camp with ensuite facilities.

Situated in the northwestern corner of Botswana, the Okavango Delta is a World Heritage Site and the largest inland delta in the world. Commonly spotted animals include lion, rhino, leopard, giraffe, hippos, elephants, crocodiles and countless species of bird. Look out for these animals during daily game activities including game drives, walks (dependent) and more. Overnight at Wilderness Okavango Delta or Moremi Camps

Day 3-4Moremi Wildlife Reserve | Meals: B L D

After breakfast, depart by light aircraft to another Wilderness Classic Camp within the Okavango Delta.

The heart of the Delta is the Moremi Game Reserve. All the major habitats of the Okavango are preserved here. Around Moremi are large private reserves (locally known as concessions) that are leased out to safari companies under strict guidelines. These private reserves offer the very best safari experiences, with massive tracts of pristine parkland and privacy encountered in very few places in Africa these days. One can go out all day in some areas and not see another soul, besides the animals on the savannah. Daily shared game activities are included and can be enjoyed with your knowledgeable guides. Overnight at Wilderness Okavango Delta or Moremi Camps

Days 5-6Linyanti Reserve | Meals: B L D

To the northeast of the Okavango Delta are the Chobe and Linyanti regions. These areas are renowned for their predators and large concentrations of game, particularly elephant. There are many varied habitats within the Chobe and Linyanti: marshes, waterways, riverine forests, dry woodlands and the world famous Savuti Channel. The Savuti Channel is a waterway that connects the Linyanti River with the interior of the Chobe National Park at the Savuti Marsh. Today, rather than an open grassland as it used to be, the Savuti Channel is a flowing waterway attracting a variety of different animals. This provides an entirely different variety of wildlife that can be seen during daily game activities. Overnight at Wilderness Linyanti Camp

Day 7Depart Maun or Kasane, Botswana | Meals: B

After an early morning game drive and breakfast, you leave Linyanti for Maun or Kasane, where the safari ends.

Consider an extension to the Victoria Falls or continue the safari excitement into Zambia –we’ll help you with options! Borton Overseas can assist you with transfers and flights for your onward plans. The safari can be offered in any order and any number of nights, with a wide choice of camps.
