Okavango & Beyond - 9 Days

Jumbo Junction Elephants, northern Okavango Delta

"This safari package was such incredible value and got me to some of the very best safari destinations in the world"

Experience the very best of Northern Botswana on an unforgettable 8-night safari combining the waterways of the Okavango Delta, the wildlife-rich wilderness of Khwai and the elephant-filled landscapes of Chobe National Park.

A special feature of this journey is that all three camps are locally owned and operated, offering a more authentic and personal way to experience Botswana whilst supporting local communities and providing excellent value for money.

Your adventure begins with 2 nights in Chobe, where the Chobe River draws some of Botswana’s most spectacular wildlife. Enjoy safari drives and boat safaris, with the chance to see large herds of elephant, buffalo, lion and other iconic African wildlife.

From Chobe, a charter flight takes you into the Okavango Delta for 3 nights immersed in one of Africa’s most extraordinary wetland environments. With both land and water activities available, you can explore the Delta by open 4x4, glide quietly through the waterways by mokoro, enjoy boat excursions and discover the landscape on guided walks.

Fly on to Khwai for your final 3 nights, a remarkable wildlife area where woodland, floodplains and the Khwai River create an ideal habitat for an incredible diversity of animals. Expect exciting safari drives, exceptional birdlife and opportunities to encounter predators such as lion, leopard, hyena and African wild dog.

This Okavango Delta, Khwai & Chobe safari is the perfect way to experience the contrasting landscapes and abundant wildlife of Botswana in one seamless journey – from elephant-rich riverfronts and predator-filled wilderness to the tranquil channels and floodplains of the Okavango Delta. With locally owned camps throughout, it combines an authentic Botswana experience with a more affordable and responsible approach to safari, allowing you to experience more of this extraordinary country while directly supporting local operators and communities.
