OKAVANGO DELTA

Today you’ll fly from Cape Town to Maun. Upon arrival, you’ll continue by light aircraft to your lodge deep within the Okavango Delta, one of the world’s largest inland water systems and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Situated on Xaxaba island, your lodge is surrounded by a lagoon as well as innumerable waterways, floodplains and palm-fringed islands. It’s a pristine area of outstanding wildlife viewing, with wild dog, lion, leopard, elephant, sable antelope and buffalo all to be found, as well as more than 400 species of resident and migrant birds.

The camp offers an array of water-based activities including motorboat, mokoro (traditional canoe) and walking excursions. Between November and March, when the water levels are lower, you can also enjoy open 4x4s drives off the island. For the adventurous, why not get a bird’s eye of view of the action on a helicopter safari. Between activities, you can relax in your luxurious tent with its walled outdoor shower, outdoor deck and plunge pool.
