The Okavango Delta is one of Botswana's most remarkable natural destinations. It is a vast inland delta made up of waterways, lagoons, seasonal floodplains, islands and dry areas. The Delta is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is known for its combination of water-based and land-based safari experiences.
At Holiday Africa Safaris & Tours, we can help you plan an Okavango Delta safari according to your travel dates, preferred activities and accommodation level.
The Delta offers a different safari experience from Botswana's drier wildlife areas. Depending on the location and season, visitors may experience waterways, wetlands, open grasslands and woodland areas during the same trip.
Possible wildlife sightings include elephants, buffalo, giraffes, zebras, hippos, crocodiles, antelope and a variety of predators and bird species. Wildlife viewing is seasonal and sightings cannot be guaranteed.
Depending on the area, camp and package selected, activities may include:
Game drives
Mokoro excursions
Boat excursions
Birdwatching
Nature and wilderness experiences
Sundowners
Relaxing at camp
Photography
Activities differ between camps and safari areas, so we will confirm exactly what is available with your selected package.
The Okavango Delta changes throughout the year. Water levels, wildlife movements and road conditions can affect the safari experience.
The best time for your trip depends on whether you are mainly interested in water activities, wildlife viewing, birdwatching or a combination of experiences.
Accommodation can range from camping and mobile safari arrangements to safari camps and lodges.
Your accommodation will depend on the package selected and availability at the time of booking.
