Day 2: Pom Pom Island, Okavango Delta

Spend a full day in the Delta exploring the channels of the Okavango Delta and searching for the elusive Big Five. You can see plenty of game from your deck beside the swimming pool, shaded by tall trees, or on the viewing platform overlooking the lagoon.

Described as ’the jewel’ of the Kalahari, the Okavango Delta is the largest inland delta in the world. It is an isolated oasis set in Botswana’s harsh and arid desert. It consists of a web of lagoons, lakes, and hidden channels covering an area of over 17,000 square kilometers. Its waters are surprisingly clear and pure due to the fact that it passes through very sparsely populated areas.

Over 400 species of birds flourish here, especially the water-loving birds. Fishing can take place anywhere in the delta, but the major fishing camps are in the north of the delta, in the Panhandle. On the mainland and among the various islands in the delta, lions, elephants, hyenas, wild dogs, buffalo, hippo, and crocodiles congregate with a large variety of antelopes and other smaller animals. Its fertile shores draw these animals to it, making the area one of the best Big Five African safari destinations.

Day 5: Moremi Crossing – Chobe National Park

Breakfast at the camp, then intercamp transfer to Kasane Airport, where you will be taken to Chobe National Par,k which is famous for its huge herds of elephant. Check into your luxury lodge and enjoy lunch with stunning views of the Chobe River.

Chobe National Park is named after the Chobe River. It is the second largest national park in Botswana and is home to a large animal population and over 450 bird species. It has four distinctly different eco-systems: Serondela with its lush plains and dense forests in the extreme North-East of the Chobe River area, the Savuti Marsh area in the West, the Linyati Swamps in the North West and the hot dry hinterland in between the other three.

One of its biggest attractions is the annual zebra migration. It also boasts one of the largest elephant populations in Africa. The elephants are migratory and move from the Chobe and Linyati rivers where they concentrate during the dry seasons, to the pans in the southeast section of the park, where they disperse during the rains. These elephants are said to have the distinction of being the largest in body size of all living elephants. Their ivory, though, is brittle, and you won’t spot any large tusks on them.

The most popular area is the stretch of the Chobe River from Kasane town to Serondela campsite. Hundreds of hippos and crocodiles gather here. The Savuti region is one of the best-known wildlife places, especially for lion sightings. Other major animal species are giraffe, impala, hyenas, leopards, wildebeest, kudu, waterbuck, warthog, jackals, and many more. Its rich bird life includes species such as eagles, kingfishers, marabou storks, and bee-eaters. For fishing enthusiasts,the  Chobe River provides a large variety of edible fish. Game viewing is best during the dry season, April to October when the majority of natural pans have dried up. Animals, however, are present year-round.
