07 days program

Day 1: Maun/Okavango Delta
Pick up at the airport and transfer by flight to Okavango Delta, a magical world of water formed by the annual flood of the fresh water from Angola's Cuando River onto Botswana Delta. Like a series of impressionist paintings, the Okavango unfolds a study of the Delta's variety of vegetation and its extraordinary beauty. This afternoon we have the chance to see nature slide past from the comfort of the mokoro, the traditional canoe. We explore the wildlife in a safari walk escorted by local professional guide's knowledge and smile. Time for an unforgettable sunset on the Delta. From the wood balcony of our lodge/camp we watch the rays of the sun disappearing behind the brightness of the stars and the shyness of the moon light. During the night you may hear lions. hyenas, hippos, or elephants, an experience that you will never forget!!!

Day 2: Okavango Delta
An early start to follow the animal's instincts, looking for some fresh water and perhaps some food. After enjoying our breakfast, contemplating a new rising morning. we join our mokoro, to cross the Delta flow and to experience another amazing walking safari. The Okavango's diversity records 122 species of mammals, 71 species of fish, 444 species of birds, 64 species of reptiles and 1300 flowering plants. It is the continual interplay of wetland and dry land that gives rise to Okavango's amazing wildlife. Its remoteness and conservation efforts over the years have ensured that to today this biodiversity has remained relatively intact. In the evening we enjoy a tasty local cuisine in a relaxing, magical, atmosphere.

Day 3: Moremi Game Reserve
In the morning we leave behind this paradise and we take our charter flight to our next destination: Moremi Game Reserve. The reserve covers almost a third of the entire Okavango Delta and combines permanent water, with drier areas making for some startling and unexpected contrasts. In the past the reserve has suffered the ravages of a rinderpest epidemic, overgrazing by indigenous pastoral farmers up until the 1940's and an uncontrolled hunting until the early 1960's. After proclamation as a reserve by Chief Moremi's family, the area has became one of the most scenic and varied game parks in Africa with prolific populations of wildlife and birds. Today we experience excellent savannah game viewing by 4x4, as well as bird-watching on the lagoons. Overnight in our comfortable camp where we have the chance to live the nature in depth, tasting a wonderful barbecue at the moon light. 

Day 4: Savuti Game Reserve
An early rise to reach our new destination in a beautiful drive heading for Savuti. Often called one of the prime wildlife destinations of the African continent, wild and isolated Savuti, sun-seared just before the summer rains, becomes a haven for large herds of elephants. In our game  we have the chance to spot alert lions sizing up the situation for a later attack, giraffes slaking their thirst in one of the waterhole, zebra, impala, roan, sable, wildebeest, kudu, buffalo, waterbuck, warthog, eland and other predators including hyena, jackal, bat-eared fox and possibly cheetah. Overnight in our camp.

Day 5: Chobe National Park
The Chobe National Park, divided into four distinctly different eco systems, is the second largest national park in Botswana and covers 10,566 square km. It has one of the greatest concentrations of game found on the African continent. Its uniqueness in the abundance of wildlife and the true African nature of the region, offers a safari experience of a lifetime. A major feature of Chobe National Park is its elephant population currently estimated at around 120,000. The Chobe elephants are migratory, making seasonal movements of up to 200 km from Chobe and Linyanti rivers, where they concentrate in the dry season, to the pans in the southeast of the park, to which they disperse in the rains. Today we have a chance to see the profusion of game from the riverbank. Another special overnight to enjoy the brightness of the sky and the stars and a relaxing dinner in our camp.

Day 6: Kasane
Early wake up call to reach Kasane, the first little town after our wildlife experience. We spend the rest of the day enjoying a cruise boat or simply watching the river while having a drink. Kasane is situated near the confluence of the Chobe and Zambezi rivers, and close to all Botswana's Namibian, Zambian and Zimbabwean border. For years tourists have been using Kasane as a gateway to the Chobe National Park and it was from this town that David Livingstone made his greatest ‘find’, the Lake Victoria. A comfortable overnight in a luxury Lodge.

Day 7: Victoria Falls
After breakfast we cross the border heading for the Victoria Falls, one of the seven wonders of the world. The scenery offers an inescapable closeness to the natural elements and to a unique view: the towering column of spray, the thunder of the falling water, the terrifying abyss that separates Zimbabwe from Zambia, the forest and the placid, tranquil lagoons in which hippo and deadly crocodiles lurk. To end up properly our amazing experience we spend our last overnight in a beautiful  Lodge, close by the waterfalls. Tour ends the following day after breakfast.
