We can book reliable fully equipped or non-equipped 4 x 4 vehicles for you to explore the delta and spectacular wildlife destinations which surround the delta.

Inner Delta Boat Safaris

When the annual flood arrives the delta swells to many times its permanent size attracting animals from kilometres away creating one of Africa’s greatest concentrations of wildlife. The delta is one of the world’s largest inland water systems. The best way to explore and experience the channels and waterways of the delta is by boat safaris with personal touches, comfort and style. You will travel up the western side of Chiefs Island, through Moremi game reserve and into the inner delta. We offer safaris to suit both the budget conscious traveller and luxury options. Day trips, multi day and Trans-Okavango Safaris can all be arranged into private campsites on uninhabited islands. The best time for a boating safari is between May and October depending on the water levels. We offer transfers by boat to certain lodges in the delta and optional helicopter flights and mokoro excursions can be included between the lodges.

MOKORO EXCURSIONS

Feel the spirit of Africa and connect with your soul floating amongst the water lilies. Mokoro trips offer peaceful, tranquil, crystal waterways surrounded by birds. The trips are offered from a community run area. You will be transferred by boat to meet your community guide and mokoros. It is the most popular and most affordable option to experience the local way of life. Day trips or multi day trips, either self catered or fully catered can be arranged.

Budget and luxury lodges

There is a wonderful variety and selection of lodges and camps around Botswana. Each lodge is a destination in itself, nestling in its own unique environmental niche, open to the unspoilt moving natural world around it. Transport to the lodges will differ depending on where it is situated. To remote areas you may need to fly, some can be reached by boat, others can be accessed by 4 x 4 vehicles. The lodges offer a variety of land and water based activities. The destination you choose will determine the choice of lodge we can offer in the area and the activities which will go with it. We can advise on lodges for 4 x 4 self-drive units, journeying from South Africa, Zambia Zimbabwe and Namibia, needing good stop over destinations.

Scenic Flights Over The Delta

Your trip to Botswana may be a once in a lifetime experience therefore treat yourselves and include a flight over the Delta. Fixed wing aircraft enable you to experience an aerial view of the delta which puts into perspective the vastness of this incredible wilderness area. They offer camp and lodge transfers and scenic flights over the Delta. Alternatively you can be taken by helicopter, to explore the more remote areas of the delta by air. This offers stunning panoramic views and incredible photographic opportunities. Lodge to lodge transfers can also be arranged. Private flights can be arranged or you can share with others – 4 guests per helicopter.

Riding Safaris

Botswana has several distinct ecosystems. With thousands of acres of pristine wilderness to explore one can enjoy close up encounters with wildlife riding calm, experienced horses. The areas where you ride have floodplains, dry areas and kilometres of wide open space making it uniquely suited to riding and walking. Journey with us through spectacular landscapes; discover the wealth of flora and fauna and intricate ecosystems, knowing you are having little or no impact on the environment. Equipment and horses are of the highest standard. The horses you will use are all well-schooled, fed, cared for and are acclimatised to the area and the animals you will encounter. Horse safaris are camp based and incorporate the latest in comfort and environmental standards. The safaris can be tailor made for either the Okavango Delta or the wide open spaces of the Salt Pans or a combination of both.
