Nestled between the Okavango Delta and Chobe River, Linyanti's swampy river frontage is reminiscent of Okavango's permanent waterway. Often described as one of the best wildlife-viewing areas in Africa, elephants and buffalo are in abundance year round and it's worth watching the lion and hyena fight for dominance.
