Upon your arrival in Maun you will be picked up from the airport and transferred to your lodge, hotel or guest house, Check-in at Hotel Day at Leisure.
After breakfast we will depart to Boro Boat Station. Upon arrival we will find our polars and mokoros (traditional canoes) waiting for us. After several hours on the water we will stop at an island in order to take a walk and stretch our legs for a few minutes. From a distance (if we are lucky) we might see elephants, giraffes, zebras and different bird species. You may opt to eat your packed lunch here before we continue on with our journey. We will stop for the night at a different island, where the camp hand will set up the tents while we relax under the shade. Later in the evening the chef will prepare a meal and we will eat dinner while enjoying musical entertainment from the polars.
In the morning the chef will prepare breakfast while we pack our tents. We will then return via mokoro to Boro station and then drive to Khwai Concession. On our way to Khwai we will enjoy a bonus game drive as we keep an eye out for nearby animals. When you arrive at the campsite you will eat a prepared meal and then go on an afternoon game drive.
Wake up early in the morning and have breakfast at the campsite before your morning game drive. We will carry bottled water, snacks and drinks as the drive will last for several hours. Later you will return to the campsite for lunch prepared by the chef.
Our drive today will be in the Kwai Village. The animals here are attracted to the narrow ribbon of water that is the Khwai River, which makes for some spectacular wildlife viewing. This is an area where lion and leopard may be seen as well as a healthy population of plains game, including kudu, impala, giraffe and zebra.
After breakfast we will pack our camping equipment and drive to Xakanaxa, where we will enjoy a boat cruise and spend a night the Xakanaxa campsite. We will cruise for three hours in the main channels of the Okavango Delta. During our cruise you can expect to see variety of bird species as well as hippos and crocodiles.
