If
you enjoy wildlife and wish to experience the Okavango Delta intimately
our 10 day Okavango "Old Time" safari is designed to provide this in
relative comfort and safety. With this safari you will be flown into
the Delta from Maun by a light charter aircraft where you can then
immerse yourself in the beauty of the Okavango and lose all sense of
time while living in close proximity to the animals that inhabit this
paradise. Here your primary means of travel will be the mokoro. Your
local guide will pole you to areas where you will be surrounded by game
of all species. Your guide will select campsites in the bush from where
you can do game viewing walks or just relax and view game from your
campsite. You will also learn how the people of the Okavango live and
survive in this water wilderness.
With
this safari you will be provided with all camping equipment. Your
guide, assistant and cook will set up camp at the selected campsites
and tend to all your needs. A bush toilet and shower with hot water
will be provided. On this safari you will be able to explore a
reasonably vast area of the Delta. In the 10 days you will move to a
new campsite every 2nd or 3rd day or you could choose to stay longer in
a place where the game viewing is especially good. A charter flight
will take you from Maun to a bush strip in the Delta and will collect
you again when your safari has ended. By carefully following the
instructions of your guide and adhering to a few simple guidelines,
which will be provided, you will be able to enjoy this safari with the
knowledge that your safety is of utmost importance to us and that you
are good hands as the guides have extensive knowledge of the animals
and the terrain and will also pay special attention to your safety.
Our
mokoro safaris are conducted in the Chief's Island area of the Okavango
Delta. This is also part of the Moremi Game Reserve and has been
declared a wilderness area. This means that there are no permanent
camps or lodges in this area. This serves to provide a true African
wilderness experience.
