From flora and fauna to birds and large mammals.

Your first morning in Moremi will be relaxed and comfortable. It will be a day full of excitement and new experiences as you witness nature first hand and the beauty of the wildlife. Moremi is in the heart of the Okavango Delta and therefore wildlife is rich and diverse due to the sheer quantity of water. Today you will be able to finish the rest of the activities you were not able to do the previous day.

Day 4 Drive to Moremi Game Reserve (Khwai Area)
Wake up and start getting ready at your own pace to head into the heart of Moremi Game Reserve. The drive towards the centre of Moremi will make you realise how different the topography is between Moremi and your previous camp sites. Settle down at your new camp
site in Khwai and prepare yourself for your up-coming afternoon game drive. Khwai is an area within the national park owned by the village of Khwai and located in the heart of the delta. The nights in Moremi are truly a thing of beauty.
Overnight: Standard camping

Day 5 in the Heart of Moremi Game Reserve
The Okavango Delta is also referred to as ‘Africa’s Last Eden’. It is one of Africa’s most beautiful and well preserved ecosystems. The Okavango Delta is affected by seasonal flooding with flood water from Angola reaching the Delta between March and June, peaking in July. This peak coincides with Botswana’s dry season resulting in great migrations of plain game from the dry hinterland. Your first night camping in the Moremi Game Reserve will be an unforgettable start to your journey, with the game drives and night camping to add to the excitement.
Overnight: Standard camping
Included: All meals
Day 6 in Moremi Game Reserve (Xakanaxa Area)
Wake up in a wonderland and let your breath be taken away by the striking sunrise and the smell of the African bush. The Okavango Delta supports large concentrations of animals on both a permanent and seasonal basis. Through careful wildlife management it has become perhaps one of the best places to see animals and birds in Africa. Today you will be heading to a nearby campsite in the Xakanaxa area, the drive towards your new campsite in the morning will act as a game drive since both areas are within the national park. Scenic game drives through the game reserve will leave you with memories to take home and stories to tell.
Overnight: Standard camping
Included: All meals
Day 7 in Moremi Game Reserve
There is never a dull moment in Moremi especially when you first wake up with a coffee/tea in one hand and your camera in the other.

Day 8 Drive to Savute
Savute is an area in the Chobe National Park and is probably most well-known for its large herds of African Elephants. But this is just the beginning of the Park.

A similar game drive and night camping experience as Moremi but with completely different surroundings will keep you intrigued.

The vast plains of Savute and its diversity of environments will truly inspire you. After a breathtaking morning game drive, you will come back to camp and enjoy a lovely lunch that has already been prepared for you.
