The Okavango Delta is one of Africa’s most enchanting and otherworldly safari destinations. A vast, pulsing oasis in the heart of the Kalahari, this UNESCO World Heritage Site is a place where the wild feels untouched and time slows with the flow of water. Picture endless floodplains, lily-dotted lagoons, and islands alive with wildlife—this is safari, reimagined by water.
closer look at
Fed by seasonal rains from Angola, the Okavango Delta spreads out like a fan, transforming dry plains into a living, breathing ecosystem rich with life. It's a rare inland delta where you can witness elephants wading through marshes, lions stalking buffalo on tiny islands, and hippos wallowing in reed-fringed channels. The Delta is also one of Africa’s best birding areas—with over 400 species recorded. It’s nature’s masterpiece: tranquil, teeming, and utterly unforgettable.
Get inspired
If you’re looking for a safari experience that’s immersive, intimate, and entirely unique, the Delta delivers. The magic here lies in its quiet moments—a mokoro ride at sunrise, the call of fish eagles echoing over water, the surprise of a leopard lounging in a tree above your tent. With limited access and low visitor numbers, every safari here feels personal. It’s a place to slow down, tune in, and connect with the wild in the most beautiful way.
Accommodation in the Delta ranges from intimate fly-in bush camps to luxurious lodges on private concessions. These eco-conscious stays offer front-row seats to wildlife, personalized service, and unforgettable views of Botswana’s watery wilderness.
