Incredible Okavango Delta
Okavango Delta. Nothing Compares!
The Okavango Delta is vast; it is mind blowingly vast. If you don't believe me, take a small plane or helicopter trip from Maun and fly over just the smallest part of it. It stretches from horizon to horizon and at 2,000 feet above the ground, the horizons stretch for a very long way.
As a UNESCO World Heritage site, The Okavango Delta is generally acknowledged to be one of THE places to view Africa's famous wildlife. The Big 5 animals all call the Delta home, including one of the rarest animals in Africa; The African Wild Dog. It can still be found amongst the Delta's vast wetlands. Additionally, there are also over 500 stunningly beautiful species of birds that can be found here.
A "must do" trip on the Delta has to be taken in a Mokoro. A Mokoro is a hollowed-out tree trunk in the shape of a canoe that is propelled forward like a punt with the boatman standing at the back, pusing into the shallows with a pole. If you are lucky, an inquisitive hippo might come over to see what is happening, however, even the shyest of them can be seen through the clear water.

Families are catered for in the Delta too. For many families, getting this close to nature and the Big 5 is life changing. It is as guaranteed as anything can be to make the teenagers put down their mobile phones and only pick them up again to take a photo. This doesn't mean that solo travellers cannot find the experience just as rewarding. You can join a group of likeminded travellers for a shared adventure before heading off for another part of Africa, equally, we can build you an itinerary for your individual experience. We understand that Africa can be a daunting place to visit. However, Botswana in general, and the Delta in particular, is a safe place for tourists and the people really are so friend.
The whole place is just magical and needs to be experienced to be believed. Click below, fire up your senses and let us help you find your paradise.
