3 nights (Walking Safari with Mokoro Experience)

Discover the untouched beauty of Botswana’s Okavango Delta with Package 2, a unique safari experience combining walking safaris and tranquil mokoro boat excursions. This 3-night adventure offers an intimate connection with nature, guided by experienced professionals, in one of the world’s most extraordinary ecosystems.

Day 1: Arrival and First Wilderness Experience

Your journey begins in Maun, the safari capital of Botswana. In the morning, our expert guide will greet you at the airport or your hotel. From here, a scenic 2.5-hour drive takes you to our camp in the heart of the Okavango Delta.

Initially, the journey follows tar and gravel roads. After about an hour and a half, you’ll cross the veterinary fence, signaling the start of your wildlife adventure. From this point onward, keep your camera ready for possible sightings of Botswana’s iconic wildlife.

Arriving at camp around lunchtime, you’ll be welcomed by our friendly staff and introduced to your comfortable mobile home for the next three nights. After settling in, enjoy a short afternoon walk, your first opportunity to immerse yourself in the wonders of the Delta on foot.

Later in the evening, savor a delicious dinner under the stars. To conclude the day, gather around the campfire to share stories and relax before falling asleep to the enchanting sounds of the wilderness, surrounded by hippos in their natural habitat.

Days 2 – 3: Walking Safaris and Mokoro Excursions

The next two days are dedicated to exploring the Okavango Delta through twice-daily activities that combine walking safaris and mokoro excursions. These experiences are tailored to suit your group’s comfort level, ensuring safety and an unforgettable adventure.

Morning Walking Safari

• First of all, wake up shortly before sunrise to enjoy freshly brewed coffee and a light breakfast by the campfire.
• With the first light of day, embark on your morning walking safari, typically lasting 4-5 hours. During the cooler morning temperatures, you’ll have the best chance of encountering wildlife and observing their behaviors up close.
• Along the way, your guide will provide fascinating insights into the Delta’s ecosystem, including tracks and tracking, birdlife, botany, traditional medicines, and the role of insects in the environment.
• Halfway through, stop for a coffee break with biscuits before continuing back to camp.

Afternoon Mokoro Excursion

• After returning to camp, enjoy a freshly prepared brunch and take time to relax with a siesta or charge your devices. For added comfort, request a warm bucket shower during the day when sunlight is optimal.
• Later in the afternoon, enjoy tea before heading to the mokoro station for a peaceful mokoro boat excursion. This traditional canoe ride offers a serene way to explore the waterways, providing a different perspective from the walking safari.
• The mokoro excursion is typically shorter and offers opportunities to observe aquatic wildlife and bird species unique to the Okavango Delta.

To end the day, gather at a scenic location for sundowners, enjoying the golden hues of the setting sun. Afterward, return to camp for a gourmet dinner prepared by our professional chef. The evening concludes around the campfire, sharing stories of the day’s adventures under the starry sky.

Day 4: Farewell to the Okavango Delta

Unfortunately, all adventures must come to an end. After a final breakfast at camp, we’ll drive you back to Maun, where this incredible journey concludes. However, if you need assistance with post-accommodation or onward travel arrangements, we’re happy to help.
