Upon arrival at Maun airport you will be collected by Delta Rain Safaris. http://deltarain.com Our safari starts in the tourist town of Maun, the fifth largest town in Botswana, where you will be welcomed with a briefing before embarking on the start of your adventure.

In the afternoon we reach our first destination which is a mobile tented camp situated in the heart of the Okavango. This a truly spectacular destination, with the Okavango Delta recently being recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. You will be fortunate enough to experience the true essence of the delta by traveling via Mokoro (Traditional Dug-Out Canoe) or by driving into the camp. The travel option is determined by the water levels which vary throughout the year.

On arrival at the mobile tented camp, you will meet the local staff that will be hosting you during your stay. They will be sure to make you feel comfortable as they provide a brief introduction to the camp. This will include showing you the dome tent with twin beds and a bush en-suite bathroom – long drop toilet and a bucket shower. Thereafter, you are more than welcome to get to grips with your surroundings, either by relaxing in the mess tent with a cold drink or taking a canoe for a paddle in the lagoon.

Day 2:DELTA

The days spent at this mobile camp will tend to follow a similar daily pattern, starting with the clatter of the Water Walla’s bucket letting you know that your shower is ready. Up before the sun, you set out on foot, to explore the surrounding area in search of game. Thereafter, we’ll meet at the mess tent for breakfast then take a Mokoro to explore further. Remember to also take time to catch up on your reading or view the birdlife around the camp site.

Lunch is normally served at around 13h00, and then you’re free to relax, explore further in a mokoro or ask one of the guides to find a spot for you to swim. This will be time for you to recuperate before the afternoon outing.

After an offering of afternoon tea at around 3pm, further afternoon activities will commence. Thereafter, you’ll return to camp in the late afternoon for a sundowner while dinner is being prepared. The clatter of the water bucket lets you know your shower is getting ready.

After freshening up, your hosts will share stories of their lives and lands around the fire. Be prepared if your Botswana hosts put on a song for you they will be expect one in return!
