Our specialist says

A truly incredible wildlife experience with some of the best guides in Africa, this is Botswana at it's finest

This trip combines the best of what Botswana has to offer – outstanding wildlife viewing, some of the best guides anywhere in Africa, lovely places to stay and truly breathtaking landscapes. Starting off in the Linyanti region of the Chobe National Park you will be able to enjoy a truly incredible wildlife experience. This is regarded as one of the best spots in Africa to spot the endangered wild dog, with a large pack living in close proximity to your camp.

From there a short flight will take you down to the Okavango Delta, perhaps the best-known part of Botswana and a must-do area on any trip to the country. Your camp is ideally sited to allow guests to enjoy all of the varied activities on offer in the delta no matter what time of year they are travelling. Day and night game drives, boat cruises, mokoro canoe safaris and guided walks can all be enjoyed from here, with incredible mammal and bird sightings around every corner.

The final leg of the trip takes you away from the lush and verdant Okavango Delta and in to the stark beauty of the Nxai Pan National Park. This offers the chance to slow the pace of your trip down a little bit, enjoy guided walks with the indigenous San Bushmen to learn more about their fascinating way of life and visit the iconic Baines’ Baobabs. Of course visitors can still enjoy great wildlife viewing as well, with lion, hyena, cheetah, wild dog and buffalo amongst the animals often spotted.
