Day 1: Start your Untamed Botswana Safari

This side of Chobe National Park is much quieter and far away from crowds. Embark on thrilling game drives in open safari vehicles in the company of experienced guides and trackers for an unforgettable introduction to the African wilderness.

Day 2: Meet the Gentle Giants of Africa

Rise with the African sun and greet the day in Chobe. During your stay, you will have the opportunity to explore Chobe on walking safaris, cruise down the mighty Chobe River and embark on night-time game drives in the wilds of Botswana's oldest National Park. Chobe is home to one of the largest concentrations of wildlife on the African continent.

Lions, leopards, wild dogs and antelope aside, the Chobe National Park is home to the largest continuously surviving elephant population, perhaps the largest concentration of these majestic mammals on the continent. An estimated 50,000 Elephants can be found here, among a plethora of smaller animal species, in Botswana's most ecologically diverse nature reserve.

Day 3 - 4: Okavango Lagoons

Onwards, to the Riverlands. Today, you will be travelling to the Okavango Delta in Botswana. A road transfer will take you to the Kasane Airport, where a light aircraft is waiting to take you to Mapula Lodge in the untamed Okavango Delta.

Spend two nights in this incredible wonder of nature and embark on unforgettable game drives, bush walks, mokoro canoe trips and boat rides (depending on seasonal water conditions) in the untamed Okavango Delta in Botswana.

Day 5 - 6: Okavango Delta Revisited

Today, you will experience an incredible flight over the stunning Okavango in a light aircraft, en-route to the Khwai River Concession - a 180 000 hectare reserve beside the Moremi Game Reserve in Botswana. Destination: Machaba Lodge. You will spend two cosy nights in this tranquil paradise, nestled in the wild heart of the African bush.

Embark on game drives as the sun rises over the Delta. Explore the wonders of the wilderness on walking safaris (guide dependent) and traverse the winding waterways of the Okavango Delta in a traditional mokoro canoe (if the water levels permit it).

The Khwai River Concession offers the unique opportunity to view wildlife from the comfort of your own safari tent! Immerse yourself in the beauty of the region and visit the local community for a taste of authentic African culture. Enjoy evening game drives before incredible bush fare dinners and thrilling night drives for dessert.

Day 7: Farewell Botswana

The time has come to say goodbye to the untamed beauty of Botswana. A road transfer will take you to the Machaba airstrip, where a light aircraft is waiting to take you to the airport at Maun.
