Itinerary
Day 1 – Arrival: Maun to Moremi National Park (3 nights)
Upon your arrival in Maun, you’ll be met by Tebla and the safari vehicle and then drive into Moremi National Park. Once settled in camp, enjoy a relaxing evening around the campfire and a delicious dinner.
Day 2 & 3 – Full Day Safari -Moremi National Park
Enjoy a light breakfast as the sun rises before heading out on a morning game drive. Most predators are active first thing, so an early start often proves very rewarding. After lunch in camp, afternoons will be spent enjoying a relaxing boat cruise where you can watch the sunset over the okavango delta.
Day 4 – Scenic Transfer Drive from Moremi National Park to Khwai (3 nights)
Today we will take a slow drive through Moremi National Park, driving north towards the Khwai Community Area. The drive through both wilderness areas takes between 3 to 5 hours and you can expect to see a variety of general game, elephants, birdlife. .
Day 5 & 6 – Full Days in Khwai
Mornings will be spent on game drives or nature walks and for the afternoons, enjoy the peace and serenity of the Okavango delta by exploring one of its many waterways in the traditional dugout canoe – the Mokoro. Gliding along on the mokoro you can enjoy little magic moments like jacanas hopping between water lilies, malachite kingfishers and reed frogs. Whilst in Khwai there is also the option for a night drive where you have the chance to spot the nocturnal animals that live under the cover of darkness.
Day 7 – Scenic Transfer Drive from Khwai to Savute (3 nights)
Today we take a slow drive through the Mababe depression into Chobe National Park to Savute. The drive through the wilderness takes between 3-5 hours and you never know what you will see en route.
Day 8 & 9 – Full Days in Savute
On both days enjoy game drives exploring the vast Savute marsh and grasslands, keeping an eye out for the infamous lions of Savute.
You can also view the Bushman rock paintings, painted by Botswana’s earliest inhabitants, the San Bushmen, over 4000 years ago. Savute also has several pumped water holes that draw many animals seeking to quench their thirst after a hot day and we too can enjoy iconic African sundowners at the Baobab stretch point.
