Vic Falls, Delta & Hwange Safari

Itinerary information

Upon arrival at Maun Airport, you will be met for a small plane transfer to the Linyanti Airstrip, where a driver awaits for a bush drive to your first stop, Linyanti Bush Camp. Nestled in a private reserve on the border of Botswana’s famous Chobe National Park, a gateway to the vast Okavango Delta, the lodge offers an exclusive safari experience along the banks of the Linyanti Wetlands.

You have three nights here with the opportunity to embark on early morning game drives to witness the sunrise over the marshlands, bringing to life a flurry of avian and mammalian species that inhabit the dense woodlands. As a private concession, there'll be an opportunity to venture off-road for close sightings of big cats and the rare African wild dog. Your afternoons will be filled with delight on guided walking safaris, offering you the chance to truly immerse yourself in an authentic bush trek experience. Don't miss out on visits into Chobe National Park to experience the majesty of Botswana's life-giving Okavango Delta. Evenings can be spent on night drives, providing a nocturnal perspective of the natural activities of the reserve, or you can relax on your veranda for intimate sundowners overlooking the glistening floodplains.

Depending on the season, an experienced river guide will take you out onto the wetlands in a traditional mokoro canoe for an intimate and tranquil cruise along the waterways. Additionally, helicopter trips offer aerial views where you'll observe large populations of Kalahari elephants, as well as swathes of antelope prancing along the savannah.

The lodge's location along the banks of the Zambezi River offers tranquil canoeing experiences and romantic river cruises to explore the fullest extent of these waterways. Only 20 minutes away from Victoria Falls, affording guests easy access to one of the Seven Natural Wonders. Indulge in the sights, sounds, and smells of this breathtakingly dramatic waterfall.
