The Okavango Delta covers over 20,000 square kilometers. It’s the only wetland of its kind in the world. You can explore it on foot. You can also go by canoe. Or you can ride in an open vehicle. You’ll pass through rivers, islands and open grass. The delta is home to huge numbers of animals. Every trip here feels wild.
The Savute and Moremi Reserves are known for big cats. Lion, leopard and wild dog roam the marsh and grass here. At Chobe National Park, you’ll find large herds of elephant and buffalo. They gather along the Chobe River. Bird lovers will love it too. The park is home to over 560 bird types.
Want to go off the beaten track? Head to the Central Kalahari. Or visit the salt pans at Makgadikgadi and Nxai. These remote spots offer a new kind of safari.
