This seven-day tour offers an extraordinary blueprint of Botswana with a well-balanced selection of water and land camps, enhancing your safari experience.

Nxai Pan National Park is well known as the second largest land migration destination in Southern Africa, with thousands of zebras migrating to the area.

Nxai Pan is an eco-friendly camp powered independently by solar energy, minimising their impact on the environment. With the camp surrounded by white salt pans and each luxury tent overlooking the waterhole, game viewing is exceptional with elephants showing their dominance regularly.

A unique and highly popular activity takes you on a day trip to Baines’ Baobabs where you will witness the nearly identical resemblance between artist and adventurer Thomas Baines paintings and the magnificent giant trees which stand before you 150 years later.

Another favorite activity is an informative walk with one of the San bushmen trackers, learning about their inspiring outlook on life and how they live from day to day.

Pom Pom Camp boasts true traditional safari style and is located on a private concession in the heart of the Okavango Delta. With unspoilt wilderness and narrow waterways, you are sure to have an authentic safari experience with day and night game drives included during your stay as well as mokoro activities and boat cruise.

Kwara Camp is an attractive tented camp situated on a private concession in the world renowned Okavango Delta. With permanent water around the camp and sharing a common boundary with Moremi Game Reserve, game viewing in this area is consistently good. Your time at Kwara camp will be spent exploring the exclusive concession with day and night game drives, bush walks, mokoro excursions in the shallower waters and by boat in deeper waterways. With both land and water activities on offer, superb lagoon views and open-air showers, Kwara is one of the Delta’s best-kept secrets.

All our transfers arrived on time & drivers were very polite & friendly. Accommodation was first class.
