A classic Botswana safari itinerary encompassing the Northern Parks and highlights of Botswana. See the Chobe National Park, the Linyanti region and the famous Okavango Delta and stay in intimate camps and lodges in private concession areas.
Enjoy incredible elephant sightings in the Chobe National Park as well as the hippos, crocodiles and bird life as seen on Chobe River boat cruises. You will then head further into Botswana and the Linyanti area, famed for its wild dog sightings and huge herds of elephant and buffalo. The jewel of the itinerary will be your last 3 nights in the Okavango Delta, which is sure to exceed your wildlife expectations. You will stay in the private Kwara concession, known for its consistent sightings of predators, including lion, cheetah, leopard and on rare occasion – white rhino.
