Today you'll be up early and after a hot cup of tea/coffee and a bit of toast or porridge, you'll drive out to find the animals heading for an early morning drink. This is the best time of the day to see night life returning to their beds to lie up during the day, and the day animals waking up.

Tubu Tree Mokoro Excursions
You'll transfer by air to your next camp today, after a morning drive and brunch. After a rest you'll probably enjoy your first mokoro or motorboat excursion along the pretty lily-clad waterways.
Year round water in this area means water activities are on offer every day. The water excursions are complemented by game drives. This camp is particularly good for birding and you may be lucky to spot a Pel's fishing owl, a truly incredible and rare bird.
Its a full day of boat cruises, guided walks, mokoro safari and bird watching. What you choose to do, is guided by the advice of the camp guide who will suggest activities according to the movement of the wildlife and the weather.
Professional safari guides are an intrinsic part of your experience. Our Botswana guides are highly trained in the fauna and flora of the local areas, supplemented by research conducted by biologists and other experts working in the surrounds.
Xigera Birdwatching
Enjoy your last morning excursion at Xigeria before flying on to Savuti Camp, another short and enjoyable small plane charter flight of approximately 50 minutes. On arrival you'll meet your guide and check in to your comfortable safari tent. Enjoy some time out on the verandah of your tent before enjoying an evening game drive with sundowners.
This is an area adjacent to the Savute Channel, where the wildlife congregate to drink from the cool, clear waters of the channel. This is an excellent spot for big game and large numbers of buffalo and antelope. The sense of remoteness and space is awesome.
Amongst the exceptionally high population of elephant, you could also spot zebra, wildebeest, impala, giraffe, lechwe, reedbuck, kudu, lion, hyaena and leopard.
Seasonal zebra and elephant migrations add drama to this area during certain months of the year. The waters are at their peak height in May, drying out between June to October until the rains arrive again in November.
On your last day you'll enjoy a leisurely wake-up and a breakfast before packing up and connecting with your last small plane charter flight back to Maun. Once in Maun, you'll board your flight to Johannesburg. An add-on 5 nights in Cape Town is highly recommended or you could head for Victoria Falls and enjoy the sight of this spectacular waterfall.
