Day 1: Travel from Johannesburg to the Delta
Today you will head south into the heart of the Moremi Game Reserve in the Okavango Delta. Many refer to the area you will be spending the next 2 nights in as the predator capital of Africa, but an area is also a place of immense natural beauty.
The afternoon is at your leisure to enjoy the game viewing activities including gliding through the Okavango Delta waterways on a mokoro and motorised boating excursions (subject to water levels).
Day 2: Open floodplains and woodlands
An early wake-up call signals a day of unbelievable natural drama, which starts while you sip on your early morning coffee. The wildlife viewing is of the best on the continent, with surprises at every turn. This area of open floodplains and riverine woodlands provides the perfect habitat for a diversity of wildlife.
Your game guide will enrich the experience before returning to the safari lodge for brunch. The afternoons may be enjoyed relaxing around the pool, having a treatment or just resting in the comfort of your room. Afternoon tea precedes the late drive where you will search for the animals that have eluded you so far. Mokoro trips (canoeing) may also be offered in season.
Day 3: Light aircraft flight from Okavango to Chobe
Day 4: Thrilling game viewing in Chobe
The activities start early today as you head out to explore the wilderness and its wildlife. The guides are exceptional and will add a great deal to your Safari. The Chobe River has highlights throughout the year with Africa's greatest Elephant concentrations during the dry season from June to October and some of the best birding in Africa during the wet season.
You may choose to relax during the heat of the day, opt for a treatment in the exceptional wellness spa or head out on a motorboat to explore the Chobe River. Many animals come down to drink during the hot hours of the day and viewing these from a boat is a unique experience.
