Day-by-day Description
Day 1Arrive in Maun
Activities Included
Camping CultureOnce you arrive in Maun you will be met by a staff member and you will have the option to get a spectacular birds-eye view of the Okavango Delta from above in a small fixed wing aircraft (weather permitting and per person rate $110). Looking down on the Delta from the aircraft, you will get a fair idea of the magnitude of this massive mix of land and water with its intricate system of channels and islands. You might also see families of elephant, giraffe, and herds of buffalo or even hippos from the air. If you skip the flight, you will have the chance to kick back and relax at the campsite.
Day 2Deep into the Okavango
Activities Included
Wilderness Trail Game drive CultureToday we explore the Delta by mokoro or 4*4. The mokoro is used by local people as means of transport. It's a traditional dug-out canoe seating 2 people. It's steered by a ‘’poler” standing at the back, manoeuvring the mokoro downstream with a pole, very much like the gondoliers in Venice. Once you are comfortable and laid back in your mokoro, the slow and tranquil journey into The Delta begins. Gliding along on the quiet water you will have an unlimited source of opportunities to take exquisite photos of your surroundings. The duration of the mokoro trail depends on the time of year and water levels of the Delta. You will stop for lunch at an island and enjoy a nature walk of a few hours. Then you head back to Maun, again in your mokoro enjoying the last hour or two on the water while the late afternoon sun starts heading for the horizon. The Delta is usually at its lowest point from December to May. When the water is low, we can't use the mokoros and instead use 4*4 open vehicles to explore Moremi Game Reserve in the Okavango. Expect a full day of exploration in the search of wild animals, interesting and varied landscapes in this untamed African bush. Lunch will be done en-route and you will have the opportunity to take exquisite photos as Moremi is well known for teeming bird life, elephants, buffalo, hippo, lion, leopards and various antelopes.
