Day 1 - Leaving Johannesburg we head to Botswana over the border to Palapye where we camp the night. This day includes the border crossing, so passports at the ready.

Day 2 – Next day on to Maun, a dusty outpost community and the centre for the Okavango Delta which is on the edges of the Kalahari Desert, to prepare for the wilderness experience to come.

Day 3 – For the trip into the Delta pack; an overnight bag, food, cooking and camping equipment and you’re off. A short truck ride to the dugout canoes, called Mokoros and you punt out into the delta along reed lined waterways. The guides find an island for the night and set up camp. For those not going into the Delta; relax by the pool, visit town or go to the crocodile farm.

Day 4 – Up early and it’s off walking with the guide, a unique chance to see game on foot; elephants, herds of grazing zebra and pods of hippos.

Day 5 – Try learning how to pole your mokoro, or try to catch a catfish, the guides make it look so easy. A last swim in the clear water before heading back to the truck and campsite for a shower and cold drinks.

Day 6 – An early start and a stunning drive through arid land. One turn to the left and the country becomes lush and forested as we approach Chobe River; a river cruise, excellent for game viewing is highly recommended.

Day 7 – Today we take the ferry across the Zambezi River into Zambia and short drive to Livingstone town by the splendid Victoria Falls.

As the trip finishes on this day you may wish to fly out a few days later in order to enjoy the many activities in the area.
