    Moremi Game Reserve

    Your day starts at sunrise. Following a light breakfast, you will go on a morning game drive through the wildlife-rich areas of Black Pools and Xini.

    Day 3

    Moremi Game Reserve to Khwai Concession

    After a modest breakfast at sunrise, you will leave Moremi Game Reserve and head to the Khwai Concession. The Khwai Concession is a mosaic of lagoons, shallow flooded pans, open grasslands, and wooded woods. The Khwai area is renowned for providing some of the best game watching in the Okavango Delta. Hippo, crocodile, roan and sable antelope, buffalo, zebra, impala, and giraffe can be seen in abundance in the Khwai area. Elephant herds abound in the concession, as do indigenous predators such as lions, leopards, spotted hyenas, cheetahs, and the endangered African wild dog, all of which thrive on the quantity of prey. When you arrive, your camp will be ready, with tents already erected. We will spend the following two days exploring this wildlife-rich and diverse area, taking in the landscape, remembering these moments, and having once-in-a-lifetime photographic chances.

    Day 4

    Khwai Concession

    Leave camp in the early morning, right after a light meal. Listen to the sounds of the waking bush as you drive deeper into the Khwai Concession for another day of wildlife viewing. The Khwai River forms the border of Moremi Game Reserve, the only officially protected and maintained area of the magnificent Okavango Delta. It is also well-known for its good and consistent wild dog sightings. Crocodiles are frequently spotted sunning themselves on sandy riverbanks, while hippos and fish eagles dominate the deep lagoons. After a long day of activity, enjoy a magnificent sunset and sundowner by the river before returning to camp.
