Mokoros and Meerkats Safari
8 Days in Botswana's Okavango Delta
and Makgadigadi Pans
Get deep into the heart of Botswana on this intrepid exploration of the Okavango Delta and Makgadigadi Pans.
Explore the floodplains of the Delta on foot, by boat and on day and night game drives in the Khwai Private Concession. This area is well known for lions, wild dogs, leopards, elephants and kudu. Expert guides lead the way on safari activites and you'll return to camp each day for dinner served under the stars.
From the verdant waterways of the Delta, you'll head on to the arid Makgadigadi Pans. Wildlife has found a way to survive and thrive in the Kalahari basin and you'll learn all about them - from the annual pilgrimage of the wildebeests and zebras to the Boteti River to the habituated meerkat colony that lives nearby to camp. Each day brings a new adventure whether its accompanying a tribe of Bushman on a nature walk or taking quad-bikes out on the salt pan.
We crafted this itinerary to fit perfectly with other adventures in Southern Africa like a visit to Cape Town, Victoria Falls or exploring further afield in Namibia or Zambia. This combination of camps works well for families too. And for those looking for a touch of luxury, consider the upgrade to the even more remote Shinde Camp and award-winning Jack's Camp - a true desert oasis.

| Mid Season | From $9,450 per person |
| High Season | From $10,450 per person |
Consider a luxury upgrade to Shinde and Jack's for around $4k per person.
