Your safari begins and ends in Maun, also known as the gateway to the Okavango Delta. From Maun International Airport you will board a small aircraft to an airstrip not far from your first destination, Khwai Leadwood Camp. Set on the eastern border of Moremi Game Reserve, on a private community-run concession, you can enjoy the best of both worlds – access to the vast Moremi as well as crowd-free game viewing on a private concession where off-road driving, night drives and guided walks are permitted. Mokoro safaris are available when water levels are up, and tours of the nearby village allow you to connect with local life and culture.

Khwai Leadwood Camp is located on the banks of a lagoon and has no permanent structures, making you feel in harmony with your surroundings. The Khwai area is known for having some of the best wildlife sightings in the Okavango Delta, and it is a place where the community lives peacefully alongside wildlife under a system of eco-travel and sustainable development. The camp uses solar-powered energy and employs sustainable water usage. There are just six comfortable tented suites, so you are guaranteed a truly intimate experience.

On your fourth day, you will leave the Okavango behind and travel to the Chobe Enclave in northern Botswana. You will transfer on a shared light aircraft flight and then drive a short distance to Linyanti Bush Camp, your safari home for the next three nights. It looks out over the Linyanti wetlands from raised wooden platforms. This region has wide, permanent rivers and, in addition to game drives and walking, you can experience boating and catch-and-release fishing. Canoe safaris are available when water levels permit. Wildlife in this region includes hippo, crocodile, abundant birdlife, all the big cats and African wild dog.

After a day on safari, return to camp to gather around a fire and enjoy a hearty meal with fine South African wine. After all the stars appear in the night sky, you will surely be ready to retire to your private suite for a hot shower and a good night’s rest. On your final day on safari, a short flight takes you from Linyanti back to Maun International Airport where you can continue with onward travel arrangements.
