Day 6-8, Chobe – Moremi Mobile Safari
Today you will head deep into the Moremi Game Reserve for a three-night mobile safari adventure. Located in the central and eastern areas of the Okavango Delta, Moremi boasts one of the richest, most diverse ecosystems on the African continent.

It covers nearly a third of the Okavango, the largest inland delta in the world. It is exceptionally pretty and abundant, with verdant floodplains (seasonal or perennially wet), waterways, and lagoons cutting through lush vegetation. Palm trees reach up from islands, parting the mists of early mornings. Open plains teem with game, and riverine and mopane forests cast cool shade over the earth.

Gloriously contrasting, these habitats provide sanctuary to the prolific year-round wildlife population and more than 450 species of birds. Rare sitatunga and lechwe antelope thrive in the papyrus banks of the ancient waterways, while large herds of impala and tsessebe graze on dry land.

As summer comes to an end and the dry winter months take over, the scenery changes. Constantly moving herds of buffalo dominate the land, and as they migrate along primordial paths, herds of large elephants bring the reserve into its own. Kudu, zebra, and giraffe lead the ever-attendant predators into the fray, resulting in world-class wildlife viewing.

You’ll spend three days out in the bush, in a mobile safari camp set up just for you. Accompanied by a team (who will erect the tents, provide you with meals and keep a close watch on local wildlife), you get to be alone in the African wilderness. Days are spent out on safari with a specialist guide, and when you return to camp, you are welcomed by the team with refreshing drinks and delicious meals.

Day 9, Okavango Delta
Leave Moremi behind and head into the heart of the Okavango Delta, to your camp accommodation.

A UNESCO World Heritage Site, this captivating maze of lagoons, lakes and hidden channels creates the world’s largest inland delta. As the seasonal flood from the Angola Highlands funnel through the Delta’s panhandle entrance channel, these waters sculpt a stunning National Heritage Site. Spanning over 10,000 square miles, the delta presents a breathtaking panorama of reedbeds, floodplains, papyrus swamps and islands.

This afternoon, take to the waters in traditional mokoros (dugout canoes). The meditative tranquillity of the Okavango Delta’s lagoons and waterways contrasts with the excitement of spotting wildlife around every bend.

As the sun sets, gather around a campfire for a classic bush dinner, listen to the sounds of the wilderness and share tales of the day’s adventures.

Day 10, Okavango Delta
Greet the sunrise with a walking safari exploring the detail of the bush on foot, with your knowledgeable guides weaving tales of African folklore and local legend into your up-close-and-personal experience of the plant and animal life. Kids love tracking the wildlife they’ve spent the last few days spotting and learning about ecosystems and each species’ role in them.

Break for an alfresco lunch in the heart of the Delta, surrounded by the sights, sounds and smells of a true African wilderness.

As the late afternoon cools, hop back in the game vehicle to discover what surprises the wildlife has in store as it gets active again after resting through the heat of the day.

The Delta’s network of waters creates the canvas for a safari like no other. You’ll come face to face with herds of elephants, buffalo and hippos, intermingled with antelope species, giraffe and zebra, with the ominous lurking presence of the big predators. The scale and depth of nature on display in the delta is mind-boggling.
