Overview

Enjoy an 8-day adventure in the vast and diverse country of Botswana, visiting contrasting, yet equally incredible sites and enjoying a range of fun activities suitable for the whole family. Start your safari adventure in the wildlife-rich Moremi Game Reserve where you’ll embark on day and night game drives and enjoy motor-boat excursions before moving on to a two-night stay in the heart of the Okavango Delta.

Learn about this pristine watery wilderness as you stay in the secluded Footsteps Across the Delta Camp. Here you’ll have the opportunity to experience the heart of the Okavango Delta primarily on foot with experienced guides who share their generational knowledge of this World Heritage Site.

Next, travel to the Kalahari and spend your last days experiencing life on the Makgadikgadi Pans, and learning from the Kalahari Bushmen about their way of life. In addition to superb game viewing on game drives, the camp offers a range of activities unique to the region, including quad biking (ATV) or horseback riding across the vast salt pans, and a visit to the habituated meerkat den to observe their busy morning routine.
