This remarkable adventure takes you through some of Botswana's best locations. Start by enjoying the rustic charm of camping, then go wildlife viewing in the Chobe National Park's Savute district, which is well-known for having a large concentration of lions. Then, stay in the world-famous Okavango Delta, where you'll spend the night in contemporary exquisite camps and glide through the maze of water canals in a mokoro (traditional dug-out canoe) while on walking safaris.
Day 7: Delta Activities
Each day below shows where you go, what you experience, and where you can stay—luxury, mid-range, and budget lodge options included.
Welcome to Kasane! Your Botswana safari will begin with a short transfer flight to the Savute Airstrip, where you will be met and driven to the glamorous Savute Under Canvas, a trademark elevated camp. With only five mobile tents available, guests can expect an intimate and less crowded safari experience. Savute Under Canvas is ideal for warm nights under the stars and delicious dinners served under a canopy of stars by your personal butler.

You'll have a tailored safari experience with expert guides accompanying you on private wildlife drives. Spend as much time as you wish tracking wildlife and learning about the area. Look for bold, daring lions that have been known to chase elephants in this area. The interplay between predators and prey is an exciting experience.

Following an intense few days of wildlife exploration in the Savute region, you'll catch another short flight to the Okavango Delta. This World Heritage Site provides a haven for birds, aquatic canals, and numerous wildlife. Your stay at &Beyond's Nxabega Tented Camp, a sophisticated take on tented glamping. You're in for a treat at this eco-friendly camp, which is built on teak timber platforms and offers panoramic views of the surrounding area. Accommodation options include &Beyond Nxabega Okavango Tented Camp in the Okavango Delta.
Among the activities you'll enjoy during your stay are two guided game drives per day (private or group) with knowledgeable guides who know the area well. Watch out for the African serval and leopard, among others. On the boat, you can rest and unwind during a mokoro journey across the Okavango Delta's tranquil waterways. See the world like never before from a powerboat through the wetlands. Take some time to relax with a professional massage. There are many bundles to pick from. This is a well-deserved pleasure after a hard day on safari.
