Botswana has more wildlife species than anywhere else on the continent and the animal sightings are fast, furious and fantastic. And where better to witness the action than the iconic Okavango Delta? In this itinerary, we’ve added a bit of a twist too; there are no lodges. Instead, you’ll come with us on a mobile safari expedition, sleeping under the stars in our wonderfully-wild and super-stylish mobile camp, immersing yourself into the heart of Botswana.
The days will be filled with activities designed to take you as close as possible to the wildlife. You’ll boat up to herds of elephant, 500 strong, and explore remote islands on foot; zoom across floodplains in a custom 4×4 in search of game; and spend afternoons watching the birds flit across china-blue skies. If a mobile expedition in the most stylish of camps, with a dose of incredible game-viewing in a truly wild environment sounds like it might be your thing, you won’t get much better than this.
