Okavango Delta Honeymoon Experience
This Botswana honeymoon safari experience is spent at what is arguably the most beautiful and intimate place in the Okavango Delta. Situated on an island in the permanent Delta you spend your time cruising the lagoons and channels of this magnificent place.
The clear night skies and the sounds of nocturnal creatures provide the perfect backdrop to your special romantic safari to Botswana. The activities are water-based, so remote is this area. Boat cruises and exploring the channels in canoes adds to the intrigue of your African safari getaway.
For a bit of excitement, walks are done on the islands with a professional guide. This is a great way to get close to nature and discover the smaller details of your beautiful surroundings.
