Day 1 - 2

Enjoy the lively town of Maun.

Time for your first footsteps on Botswana soil. Maun, a lively city and a real melting pot of modern and traditional African life. Of course, you are warmly welcomed by our local colleagues and taken to your first lodge. After a night’s rest, you can prepare yourself for all the upcoming safari adventures. What is the best way to do that? We will be happy to give you tips on places to visit in Maun. After that, it’s safari time!

Day 2 - 4

Daily game drives in Khwai Private Reserve.

A private bush plane is waiting for you! You will fly from Maun to the Khwai Private Reserve. On this private concession in the Okavango Delta, you will spend two nights at one of the top safari locations. Little Sable, a personal favourite of ours! We would love to tell you more about it on a call. From the lodge, you will go on daily game drives in search of wildlife. One of the highlights is the twenty-strong pack of wild dogs. But that is not all! You will have sundowners at the lagoon, sail with the mokoro and will certainly be greeted by various wild animals at the lodge too.

Day 4 & 5

Sleep under the stars at SkyBeds.

Make your way to the chopper! In a fantastic 10-minute flight with incredible views, you head into the woodlands. Once you’ve landed, a personal guide will welcome you. Together with him, you make a 4×4 drive to the ‘underground hyde’, a bunker from where you will make the most beautiful photos of elephants, buffaloes and other wildlife. Then you travel to Sky Beds and sleep in an ‘open-air bedroom’ under the most exquisite starry sky ever. The fantastic staff will pamper you and in the morning you go on an exciting bush walk. After breakfast, it’s helicopter time and you fly back to the banks of the Khwai River.

Day 5 - 7

The Delta experience from Mapula.

After a short flight, you arrive today in an area on the northern edge of the Okavango Delta. Welcome to this vast private concession of 220,000 hectares of floodplains, forests and canals. Winding waterways, islands, palms and trumpeting elephants. A magical environment with an abundance of wildlife. In the middle of all this, on a large island, lies the relaxed Mapula Lodge. From here, you can go on game drives, cruise through the Delta by boat, float in a mokoro or even go on a safari from a hot-air balloon. There are no words to describe this beauty! This will be your ultimate Delta experience.

Day 7 - 9

Eye to eye with twenty lions in Savuti.

Today you will fly by bush plane to Savuti in Chobe National Park. The waters of the Delta slowly fade into the background, and in front of you are the woodlands and plains of Savuti. You will be staying in Ghoha Hills Savuti Lodge. This lodge has perhaps the most beautiful view of Botswana. Located on a hill with endless views over the grasslands. Will you come face to face with the Savuti Marsh Pride? A group of more than twenty lions. At the lodge, you can wind down after your exciting game drive with a sundowner at the swimming pool. Even from the pool, you have a view of the animals drinking at the waterhole. Well-deserved enjoyment.

Day 9 - 11

Marvel at the Victoria Falls.

Today you cross the border into Zimbabwe, via Kasane where Mpala Jena Camp is situated. A private concession in Zambezi National Park. You will stay directly on the banks of the Zambezi River and enjoy a magnificent view. The camp is named after the natural spring Mpala Jena, which runs through the centre of the concession and attracts an abundance of wildlife throughout the year, especially during the drier months. Cruise the Zambezi, enjoy game drives in the National Park and visit Victoria Falls. This is the perfect place to end this trip.

 

Day 12 & 13
