We are welcomed in Maun and taken to a local restaurant for a light lunch before being transferred to our first comfort bush camp on the Gomoti River. The evening in the African bush is spent relaxing around the campfire under the bright stars of the southern hemisphere.

This morning we are taken on a guided walk to experience the smells, sights snd sounds of the wilderness. Leisure time to relax before lunch, hereafter our game drive into the concession area with sundowners while watching the majestic African sunset.

Today we take a leisure drive into Moremi Game Reserve and onto our next comfort camp.

The variety of bird species here will keep us enthralled. Late afternoon we have the opportunity to explore the area on a sundowner game drive.

Our morning and afternoon game drives explore the area with its combination of open grasslands, woodland thicket and lagoons which create special habitat for Cheetah, Wild Dog and Honey Badger.

After breakfast our guide transfers us with a game drive enroute to a boat station for our boat transfer which takes us into the Okavango channels and lagoon areas enroute to our tented camp on an Island. Here we have the chance of seeing hippos, crocodiles and the birdlife endemic to the area.

We further explore the channels and waterways of the Okavango Delta in the morning by boat, taking in the serenity of our surrounds and water bird species of the area. After relaxing during the heat of the day we are taken on a sunset cruise to photograph the spectacular Delta sunset.

A hearty breakfast before we are boated back to the boat station where a leisure game drive transfers us to our next comfort tented camp. Lunch is served picnic style enroute. Our camp is in a private concession adjoining Moremi Game Reserve. There are no fences between the Park and the private concession making our night drive even more fantastic.

Today our guide takes us exploring the Khwai floodplains and the serenity of the surrounding wilderness is overpowering. (Optional activity at own expense – 2 hour Mokoro excursion)

Our guide transfers us to the Khwai airstrip where we meet our air transfer to Kasane airport. A lodge representative road transfers us to our luxury lodge near the Chobe River.
