DAY 3 – Maun (606 km – 10 hours)
Departing Chobe we travel through Botswana and past the Makgadikgadi Salt Pans which is one of the flattest places on earth and famous for its stunning Baobab trees.

In the evening there will be a full briefing on what to expect and pack for the delta excursion. Please remember space in the “mokoros” (local word for canoe - and your mode of transport into the Delta) is at a premium and a small overnight bag with your sleeping bag and necessary clothes for 2 days is all that is needed.

DAYS 4 & 5 – Okavango Delta
An early morning pickup awaits us at the camp where we will be transferred to the “mokoro” poling station by vehicle. We will be assigned our mokoro - each complete with poler /guide. After a two to three hour relaxing journey into the delta we will set up camp. The Delta is an incredible maze of inland waterways and lagoons. We’ll be on safari ‘mokoro’ style, poled gently along in canoes, hand hewn from logs, floating through this haven of wildlife and birds. Your poler guides will also take you on game walks to experience the full splendour of the region. Please note that there are no ablution facilities and camps will be bush camps. Meals will be carefully planned for this duration. Breakfast, lunch, dinner included.
