We promise you this: a horseback safari in Botswana is an experience like no other! In the Okavango Delta, you’ll ride over narrow elephant paths, through shallow water, and across open plains. At Macatoo Camp or Cha Cha Metsi, you will follow the rhythm of the landscape, often side by side with zebras, giraffes, or even elephants. On the Makgadikgadi salt pans, you’ll gallop across an endless white expanse, quiet, surreal, and spectacular. For skilled riders, this is the ultimate safari. In the saddle!
