Your journey at a glance
Immerse yourself in the rugged beauty and lush wilderness of Botswana on this captivating 9-day itinerary.
Discover the vast beauty of Botswana’s famous Chobe National Park, boasting the biggest concentration of elephant in Africa. Enjoy adventures including exceptional game drives, river cruises, excellent bird-watching and breathtaking photographic opportunities.
Explore the Linyanti Swamp, a remote and wild corner of Chobe National Park, which boasts a great diversity of game. It boasts large concentrations of elephant, lion, sable, roan, hippo, and African wild dog, building to a peak in the dry winter months. The area also offers spectacular birding year-round and is best known for its enormous herds of elephant which move down to the Linyanti River at the start of the winter months and only move back inland once the main rains arrive.
Your journey ends in the pristine Okavango Delta. Known as ‘the river that never finds the sea’, crystal clear channels spread over the thirstlands of the Kalahari with their papyrus-fringed banks and fertile floating islands. Keep your camera ready for sightings of elegant red lechwe and shy sitatunga that are found in this watery wilderness. Marvel at lion, cheetah, leopard, and African wild dog that share the floodplains with large herds of elephant and buffalo.
This is the ultimate safari in Botswana highlighting iconic wildlife and mesmerising landscapes.
