Itinerary
If you arrive a day or two early, we recommended booking an excursion to Soweto or the Apartheid Museum. Stay: Hotel Sky Sandton
Cross the border into Botswana and travel across the desolate landscape of the central-eastern part of the country to the wild bush within Khama Rhino Sanctuary; a unique community initiative in wildlife conservation. This is where the group will stop for the night and set up camp before time around the fire beneath a starry sky. Stay: Khama Rhino Sanctuary Camp (B/L/D)

On the way to the Delta set off on a wildlife walk and learn about tracking the animals while gaining more insight into their natural behaviours.

Stay: Tamog Tours & Safaris Okavango Delta Camping (B/L/D)
Choose to wake up early and watch a sunrise in the bush before traveling out of the Okavango Delta via mokoro through the channels.
