Botswana Mobile Safari – Moremi Magic

Botswana Mobile Safari – Moremi Magic
April – November
2022

Overview:

Discover two of the most spectacular nature destinations on the African continent – the Okavango Delta and Moremi Game Reserve. Spend five nights and six days in serviced camping accommodation in en-suite meru style tents on a mobile safari.

The Okavango is a unique ecosystem, an inland delta situated in the middle of the largest stretch of continuous sand in the world – the Kalahari basin. This wetland lies like an oasis in an otherwise inhospitable landscape. Where land and delta meet, a mosaic of pans, grasslands, forests and lagoons provide an extremely rich and diverse habitat in which a multitude of animals and birds flourish. This wetland is one of the natural wonders of the world, and is a fragile ecosystem that remains one of the world’s least spoilt and most beautiful wildernesses, and is home to various unique species e.g. sitatunga antelope and red lechwe.

Moremi Game Reserve is situated in the eastern corner of the Okavango Delta. Moremi is one of the most beautiful and varied reserves found on the African continent with huge concentrations of wildlife and incredible scenery. The reserve consists of both swamped areas e.g. Xakanaxa, and dry-land areas e.g. Khwai.

Day-by-Day Itinerary:

Day 1-2 – Camping in the Xakanaxa / 3rd bridge Area of the Moremi Game Reserve & Okavango Delta
Your safari guide will be there to welcome you on arrival at Maun Airport around noon. The exact departure time from Maun Airport will be advised closer to the time, as this depends on commercial airlines flight schedules. Expect to leave Maun and begin the journey mid-day, where youhead to Moremi Game Reserve, stopping for a picnic lunch en-route, and arriving at the campsite in time for sundowners. Spending the first two nights camping in the Xakanaxa / 3rd Bridge region, explore the surrounding wilderness on game drives during the day. The Moremi Game Reserve forms part of the unique ecosystem called the Okavango Delta and Moremi covers up to one third of the Okavango. The total area of the Okavango covers up to 18,000 square kilometres of which the Moremi Game Reserve is 5,000 square kilometres.

Day 3-5 – Camping in the Khwai Community Area, Bordering the Moremi Game Reserve
Following an early breakfast, pack camp and continue the journey to Khwai, stopping for a picnic lunch en-route. The Khwai River forms a boundary between the reserve and the community area. Spend the next three nights camping at a campsite in the community area, exploring the Khwai floodplains on game drives both during the day and at night. You will also enjoy a 2.5 hour Mekoro Trip exploring the water ways of Khwai.

Exploring after dark with spotlights offers you an opportunity to experience some of the nocturnal animals that are rarely encountered during the day. It is important to note that night drives are not permitted within the national parks and reserves. These activities are conducted outside the boundaries of the Moremi Game Reserve in the Khwai community area.

Day 6 – End Maun
Following breakfast, head back to Maun enjoying a picnic lunch en-route. You will be dropped in Maun around noon – 1pm for your onwards arrangements.
