The Okavango Delta is a vast inland river delta in northern Botswana. It's known for its sprawling grassy plains, which flood seasonally, becoming a lush animal habitat. The Moremi Game Reserve occupies the east and central areas of the region. Here, dugout canoes are used to navigate past hippos, elephants, and crocodiles. On dry land, wildlife includes African Bush Elephant, African Buffalo, Hippopotamus, Lechwe, Topi, Blue Wildebeest, Giraffe, Nile crocodile, Lion, Cheetah, Leopard, Brown Hyena, Spotted Hyena, Greater Kudu, Sable Antelope, Black Rhinoceros, White Rhinoceros, Plains Zebra, Warthog and Chacma Baboon. Notably, the endangered African Wild Dog still survives within the Okavango Delta and exhibits one of the richest pack densities in Africa.
In addition to the large animals, the Okavango Delta also supports over 500 species of birds and 85 recorded species of fish including Tigerfish, Tilapia and Catfish.
Overlooking the legendary Chiefs Island and bordering the Moremi Game Reserve, Gunn's Camp is one of the last few remaining luxury, vintage safari camps. Set under leafy palms and African Ebony to blend naturally with its unique surroundings, Gunn's Camp achieves a fine balance of comfort without isolating guests from the sights and sounds of the wilderness. You will spend two days exploring this region and enjoy the various Delta activities. This includes motor boat cruises, mokoro (dug out canoe) excursions, and guided game walks.
Your journey continues to Pom Pom Island; a private concession situated in the heart of the Okavango Delta and on the headwaters of the Xudum river system. The area lies on the western boundary of the Moremi Game Reserve and offers superb Okavango scenery and a true Okavango wilderness experience. You will spend the next two days exploring the plains and narrow canals on game drives, night drives, mokoro trips, game walks and motorboat cruises.
This tour is ideal for solo explorers, families, couples, and friends traveling together.
Your journey begins today with a 20-minute flight from Maun to Gunn's Camp, flying over the scenic Okavango Delta. On arrival, you are met and transferred from the airstrip to the camp. Your afternoon activity is a choice between a Mokoro trip, a game walk or a sunset cruise.
Your second day in the Delta includes a morning and afternoon activity. You have the choice of either a Mokoro trip, a game walk, or a motorboat cruise. The mokoro excursion is a real treat with a surprise brunch served on the island.
Accommodation: Gunns Camp
After an early morning activity and a warm breakfast, you will transfer to the airstrip for a short 10-minute scenic flight over the heart of the Okavango Delta to Rra Dinare Camp. On arrival, you will be welcomed by the friendly staff and taken to the camp for check-in. The next two days will be spent exploring the plains and narrow canals on game drives, night drives, mokoro trips, game walks and motorboat cruises.
Accommodation: Rra Dinare Camp
After your morning activity and breakfast, you will transfer to the airstrip to enjoy another scenic flight back to Maun over the Okavango Delta. You bid farewell to the delta as you begin your journey back home.

Amazing tip from Jayson
A few years ago we had Jayson deal with a Safari tour we wanted arranged for our parents and so started our first contact with Safari.com and Jayson. Since our parents were so very pleased with their experience, we immediately thought of Jayson when my partner and myself stated planning a trip to Africa. Jayson remembered us from almost 4 years ago, which I think is rather outstanding. We booked a three night stay, on Jaysons recomendation, at the Wallow Lodge, which proved to be a wonerful experience. Apart from the lodge being everything you could possibly imagine, it was the staff that made our stay a wonderful experience. We would most certainly recommend the wallow Lodge should we hear of freinds wishing to visit the Victoria Falls. Thanks gos to safari.com, Jayson for organizing our trip and the wonderful staff of the Wallow Lodge at the Victoria Falls. Kindest Regards, Kristof

A superb experience
Dear Jayson, You are a star. The very professional pieces of advice and the optimal design of the schedule that turned our holidays into an extraordinary experience. Thank you so much! Leopard Hills are indeed the boutique luxury camp that you recommended. People there are incredible friendly and knowledgable. The guide was excellent. And the cook, she was a friendly star too. The flight connections went well, despite that rather long drive, and the very early morning start. Wake up calls at 4 AM should be forbidden :) Mauritius was great, Club Med The Plantation Albion was the perfect choice. (The other Club Med @ Cannonier we visited only and were glad we didn’t chose that one…) Thank you again for the superb organisation.

Fantastic travel agent for African safari family trip!
Wow! Shann was and is fantastic! She figured out a way to make our entire trip work. We are going on a 2 week trip to South Africa and Botswana. She really helped tie it all together as a wonderful, cohesive trip. She is super nice and super smart and very knowledgeable. She is also flexible and thoughtful, etc., etc. When the chips were down (and we literally were considering pulling the plug on the whole trip), she found a way to make the entire itinerary work and got us excited about our wonderful adventure! Highly recommend!
