This ensures fantastic game viewing and bird watching opportunities no matter what time of the year you are visiting!

At Camp Moremi game drives are both land and water based. Resident naturalist guides, who are carefully trained to share their knowledge and deep love for Botswana's wilderness with you, will lead game drives.

You can thrill to the excitement of tracking these animals in open game-viewing vehicles, conducted by experienced resident naturalists.

DAY 3 - 5 : CAMP OKAVANGO
After an early breakfast we depart by boat for Camp Okavango. The 3-hour boat journey to Camp Okavango takes us through the intricate channels of the remote wilderness of the Okavango Delta. This is a totally different and unique game viewing experience and very few people are privileged to experience! En route we stop on one of the islands for coffee, tea and something sweet! On this unique experience, the boat stops on regularly intervals as guests spot animals on the banks of the river – keep your eyes open for hippos and crocodiles, while the changes in the landscape is very obvious. Arriving at the lodge, in time for lunch, the friendly staff will assist to the lounge for a hearty meal! After lunch we settle down in to freshen up and reflect on the unique morning experience! Mid-afternoon we meet up with our guides at the main lodge for our first afternoon game activity – sit back and enjoy the beauty of the area.

Camp Okavango is situated on the remote Nxaragha Island in the heart of the permanent Okavango Delta, assuring a year-round water wilderness experience. Camp Okavango’s unashamed luxury blends with the Africa of old in the elegant thatch and lethaka main lodge buildings. The dining room leads onto an expansive open-air patio for evenings around the open boma. Other lodge facilities include a cocktail bar, lounge, wildlife reference library, a secluded bird-viewing hide, shaded hammocks, a delightful sun deck and plunge pool for relaxing during the hot midday hours.

DAY 5 - 7 : CAMP SHINDE
After breakfast a scheduled charter flight will take us to Shinde where we spend the next two nights.

Nestled on a lush palm dotted island in the heart of the northern Okavango Delta and located at the edge of a lagoon, Shinde is surrounded by clear waterways, which flow over yellow sands and past palm-fringed islands teeming with birdlife and game. The island is especially favoured by members of the antelope family, including the elusive Sitatunga whose elongated and splayed hooves enable it to walk on the unstable beds of reeds floating on the water. Delta crafts can take you on an interesting trip where you can see fascinating breeding colonies of herons, egrets, pelicans and storks. Your guide can also take you on fascinating wildlife walks where you can see the hidden treasures - insects, reptiles as well as a wide variety of bird life and game.

Shinde’s remoteness has ensured that true innocent wildlife has not been subject to the pressures of mass tourism.

The lodge accommodates just 16 guests in large raised reed and thatch lagoon facing chalets, with en-suite facilities and private viewing decks, situated on the shaded fringes of the island. An open boma and al fresco dining area overlooks the expanse of pristine water that makes up the permanent Delta.The lounge, bar and dining areas are set back under the Ebony and African Mangosteen tree canopy in open sided thatched structures. The swimming pool, located within the mature gardens in the centre of the island, is a perfect place to relax.

Exploring the Delta by motorboat or canoe (mokoro), combined with walking on surrounding islands in the concession, gives guests the chance to experience a classic Delta safari.

After breakfast, we transfer to the landing strip and board our scheduled charter flight Savuti Safari Lodge, situated within the borders of the world-renowned Chobe National Park.

A handful of small pans sustain Savute's thousands of animals with a permanent, yet fragile water source. On an open vehicle game drive, you will look for the large Lion prides, the area is known for as well as the big herds of Elephants.
