TOUR OVERVIEW

A 11 night/12 day participation camping safari starting in Maun and ending in Vic Falls. The safari is limited to 8 guests and explores the Okavango Delta, Moremi Game Reserve, Chobe National Park and Victoria Falls.

DAY 1

(Day 1-2: Okavango Delta). The Safari normally starts on a Wednesday with a scenic flight by light aircraft to our camp in the Okavango Delta. This segment of the safari is in complete contrast to the rest of the safari, as we explore papyrus-fringed channels, lily-covered lagoons and forested islands. Transport is by mokoro (dug-out canoe) punted by BaYei boatmen. The elusive Sitatunga, Buffalo and the beautiful Red Lechwe may be encountered, along with all the Okavango's big game. Here, at our secluded campsite under a profusion of stars, one may enjoy the tranquillity of the Delta night punctuated by the calls of Owls and Nightjars and the distant grunting of a hippo and roars of Lion.

DAY 2

As per day 1

DAY 3

(Days 3 - 5: Moremi and the eastern Okavango). Fly back to Maun where we travel by road to the eastern reaches of the Okavango. Our campsite is in the Moremi, one of the Botswana's most scenic parks. The Okavango is made up of many slow-moving waterways that contrast with the dry Savute grasslands. Time is spent traversing the woodlands in search of Wild Dog, Leopard, Lion and colourful birds such as Meyer's Parrot and Wattled Crane.

DAY 4

As per day 3

DAY 5

As per day 3

DAY 6

(Day 6-7: Savuti). Savuti is our next stop, and we camp in the vicinity of the dry Savuti Channel. Lion prides and clans of spotted hyenas are resident in the area and are frequently seen. Cheetah and wild dog are also found here and large heads of plains game gather on the open grasslands.

DAY 7

As per day 6

DAY 8

(Day 8 to 9: Chobe National Park). Our camp in the Chobe National Park is set up on a private campsite along or near the banks of the Chobe River within the park. This is superb elephant and big game country. Antelope (including the rare Puku) as well as predators such as lion and Leopard abound in this region.

DAY 9

As per day 8

DAY 10

Victoria Falls. We depart our camp at Chobe at for the famous Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe, some 85km away for a night at Ilala Lodge. There are a variety of optional activities in the area. For those wanting to do white water rafting, a full day is needed and would require an additional night in the Vic falls after the Safari.

DAY 11

After breakfast and seeing the sights of Vic Falls, you will be transferred to Vic Falls Airport where this safari ends.
