Okavango Special Adventure, A Real Adventure!
|
We’re organizing an exclusive 12 day Okavango special : this trip has it all: the broad Okavango river making its way through walls of papyrus, the Bushman paintings at Tsodilo Hills ( a World Heritage Site ), a 5 day crossing of the Okavango delta by boat, an adventure of a lifetime ending with the game concentrations of the Moremi Game Reserve = the most “total” experience of the Okavango region, a must !
Day 1 Shakawe – Lodge Our representative will meet you at the Maun International Airport or your hotel and transfer you to a restaurant. After a relaxing brunch or lunch and a short briefing you fly to Shakawe where we stay at a lodge along the river. You will have the time to shower and relax with a drink before dinner is served. During dinner you’ll have a complete explanation by your guide about the rest of the tour and you can ask all you want to know about the country and its people. Day 2 Tsodilo Hills - Lodge We leave Shakawe for the middle of Bushmen country deep into the Kalahari where we spend our time in this area walking in the hills to discover the abundant Bushman paintings and learn about the traditional survival skills for which the Bushman are famous. Late afternoon we return to the lodge. Day 3 Popa Falls and Mahango National Park After breakfast we drive to the border with Namibia and continue to the Popa Falls area where we make a walk. We enjoy a picnic lunch and in the afternoon we explore the Mahango area where plenty animals arrive to drink at the river. Beautiful scenery and huge baobabs. Back over the border and dinner in lodge. Day 4 – 5 – 6 – 7 – 8 - 9 Descending the Okavango We head South to where the Panhandle changes into the Okavango Delta and change to boats following the meandering Okavango river from major stream to papyrus clogged small channels, sleeping on islands in the delta, enjoying a fabulous birdlife and feel like Livingstone during his explorations. A real adventure. Last day arrival in Maun, stay in lodge. Day 10 - 11 Moremi Game Reserve We camp in Moremi Game Reserve or along the Khwai river ( depending on game concentrations ) and enjoy 2 days of morning and afternoon game drives to see the abundant wildlife living on the edges of the Okavango. Day 12 A last game drive brings us back to Maun where you are brought to the airport or any other chosen destination. Arrival around noon.
