Botswana Fly-In Safari

Your Botswana fly-in safari begins with a flight in a light aircraft from Maun to the Okavango Delta. During this flight you can enjoy breath-taking views over one of the largest inland deltas in the world. A transfer will then bring you to your accommodation. Built on a palm covered island and located in the heart of the Okavango Delta, the Setari Camp is surrounded by picturesque floodplains. Known for its iconic Delta landscapes, you can immerse yourself in this wilderness of lagoons and waterways. Setari is a paradise for birdwatchers, especially for those seeking water-loving birds. During your time in the delta, you explore this pristine wilderness in a traditional mokoro canoe and by foot on a bush walk. In the afternoons, you will have the option of joining a boat cruise to admire the African sun setting over the waterways of the delta. You spend the following two nights in a classic safari style tented chalet of the Setari Camp.

After a delicious breakfast, you fly from the Okavango Delta to a private concession area, bordering the Moremi Game Reserve. Here lies the novel Rra Dinare Camp, where you will spend the next two nights. Look forward to witnessing amazing wildlife sightings, whilst accompanied by a professional guide of the Rra Dinare Camp. The list of animals which can be sighted here is long and diverse and includes buffalo, zebra, lion, leopard, cheetah, African wild dog, giraffe, hippo, and a host more. Your camp not only serves as an excellent base for game drives in a 4×4 safari vehicle, but also for seasonal game walks and night drives. Depending on the seasonal conditions, water-based activities on the Gomoti River can also be undertaken. Between the activities, you can lounge around the camp’s swimming pool and look forward to delicious meals. You overnight in a platform raised tented chalet of the Rra Dinare Camp.

In the morning you again board a light aircraft for your flight to Kasane. Once arrived, you will be transferred to the Chobe Elephant Camp. The Chobe Elephant Camp rests on a hill with beautiful views of the famous Chobe River. The location and the unique design of the camp not only provide you with a wide view of the impressive floodplains, but also serve as a comfortable retreat to relax in. Once settled, choose from a variety of activities available to you. You can find spectacular wildlife in this region on game drives in an open view safari vehicle or alternatively, observe the animals as they come to the Chobe Riverfront whilst you are on a river cruise. Perhaps you would also like to take the opportunity to learn more about life in a nearby local village on a cultural outing. Speak to your hosts and they will be happy to make recommendations. Your accommodation will be the Chobe Elephant Camp.

Enjoy a leisurely breakfast before you are transferred across the border to Zimbabwe. Your destination is the Victoria Falls, also known as ‘Mosi oa Tunya’, which means the ‘smoke that thunders’. Here adventure abounds and there are many activities to choose from: you can walk to the falls, join a sunset boat cruise on the Zambezi or fly over the falls in a microlight plane or helicopter (all optional). The more adventurous amongst you can even go white water rafting or bungee jumping off the Victoria Falls bridge (both optional). You spend the next two nights at the Pioneers Guest Lodge near the Victoria Falls.

After breakfast, your Botswana fly-in safari comes to an end, and you will be transferred to the Victoria Falls Airport for your flight back home. Alternatively, if this adventure has awoken your appetite to explore more of Africa, please let us know and we will be delighted to assist you further.
