Itinerary

1st & 2nd day Maun - Okavango Delta

Welcome to Botswana! When you arrive at the airport in Maun, you will be greeted by our local partner. He will take you to your connecting flight and help you with check-in. You will then fly in a charter plane to your accommodation in the delta. Once you have landed there, a guide will be waiting for you. You will climb into a safari vehicle and be taken to your camp on an en-route game drive, where you will spend the next few nights. Camp management will discuss the activities and schedule for the coming days with you personally.

Kala Camp (2 nights)
Kala Camp enjoys an enviable location overlooking the vast flood plains of the Okavango Delta with a palm forest beyond.

The charming tourist town of Victoria Falls lies on the southern bank of the Zambezi River and is ideal to explore on foot. The place also offers a wide range of different outdoor activities, such as white water rafting, bungee jumping or a sunset cruise on the Zambezi. The impressive Victoria Falls are within walking distance from the city center and are one of the Seven Wonders of the World.

Okavango Delta
During your stay you will undertake exciting activities with your guide. You can choose from the various activities and always discuss them the evening before with your guide or the management. The Okavango Delta is the ... ... epicenter of Botswana's wilderness. As a huge oasis in the middle of the Kalahari, it is full of life with all its elephants, birds and other wild animals. The true magic of the delta comes from the masses of water that come from the distant highlands of Angola and pour into the channels and flood plains of the delta.

In winter from June, when the sun leaves the Kalahari dry and thirsty, the flood from Angola reaches the Okavango Delta and transforms the flood plains into a Noah's Ark of African wildlife. Every year between June and September, when the flood water brings life to the delta, it is reshaped by its inhabitants. Little by little, termites build their huge mounds on the islands, which are densely covered with palm trees. Hippos open up new waterways as they move their large bodies through the reeds, creating a channel that can be explored by mokoros (traditional dugout canoes). The heart of the delta, with its shallow channels and flood plains, is best explored by mokoros and on foot on the islands.

The Okavango Delta has many faces that constantly change over the course of a year due to the unpredictable weather. As the water level rises and falls, the islands grow and shrink and the animals move to areas where life is easiest and the grass is greenest. Within a few days, a navigable sand road can turn into a waterway of unknown depth, forcing a safari to switch to boats. In November, the water level slowly drops again in the Okavango Delta and mokoro and boat trips are sometimes no longer possible until the flood water from Angola reaches the Okavango Delta again in May.

Flight Okavango Delta - Moremi Game Reserve

Chobe National Park
The Chobe flood plain is a fantastic area for game viewing, where water attracts large herds of buffalo, elephant, zebra and other herbivores.

Camping is in private, designated campsites with private bush showers at each tent.

Day 9-10

Transfer Chobe National Park - Victoria Falls Accommodation

In the morning you will be picked up by your driver and driven across the border to Zimbabwe. Your destination is the mighty Victoria Falls. Your driver will take you directly to your accommodation.

Ilala Lodge (2 nights)
Ilala Lodge is located just a ten-minute walk from Victoria Falls. Wild animals are often seen strolling across the hotel lawns as the national park borders the property.

Victoria Falls
The day is yours to spend as you wish. We are happy to book other activities for you, such as a sunset cruise on the Zambezi, a helicopter flight or a guided tour of Victoria Falls National Park. At Victoria Falls, the ground opens up and swallows one of Africa's largest rivers, the mighty Zambezi, creating the widest continuous waterfall in the world. When the water hits the narrow Batoka Gorge below, it creates a cloud of mist that rises to the sky, giving the waterfall its local name "Mosi-oa-tunya" (the thundering smoke). When the Zambezi is in flood, the mist forms a permanent rain cloud over the waterfall, giving visitors a shower even on the sunniest of days and is visible for miles.

Above the falls, tour boats cruise the calm Zambezi at sunset, while the fading sunlight breaks in the distant spray of the waterfall. Through the rocky walls of the Batoka Gorge, the Zambezi River below the falls provides a chain of world-class rapids, a prime opportunity for white water rafting.

Aside from being a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the World's Natural Wonders, Victoria Falls also forms a natural border between Zimbabwe and Zambia. The falls can be visited from both countries and for the most part the same activities are offered, including helicopter tours, village visits and souvenir shopping.

Whether you prefer to relax by drinking tea in colonial surroundings or by taking an exciting bungee jump from a bridge is entirely up to you. In Victoria Falls, neither the adrenaline junkie nor the visitor with slightly weaker nerves will get bored even after several days.

On the Zambian side, you are offered a side view of the falls and a look into the Batoka Gorge. However, you can also venture to the edge of the falls at dizzying heights on Livingstone Island.

In Zimbabwe, many vantage points and a hiking trail offer you a frontal view of three quarters of the 1.7 km wide curtain of water as you stroll through a natural hot and wet rainforest created by the spray from the falls.
