Day 1: Arrive in Maun, Botswana

Upon arrival at Maun Airport you will be met by your pilot and escorted to the plane for your shared flight to Chief's Camp.

Upon arrival at the Chief's Camp private airstrip, you will be welcomed by one of the rangers and transferred in 4x4 safari vehicle to the lodge where camp management will introduce you to the lodge and surrounding areas. Your safari guide will then escort you to your luxury tented accommodation. The en-suite facilities and private viewing deck will make you feel at home.

Depending on your arrival time, you will be treated to a hearty lunch and may have time to relax by the swimming pool. Your afternoon game activity will take you out on a mokoro (dug-out canoe) into the waterways of the Delta (subject to water levels) or alternatively a game drive in the custom-built open 4x4 vehicle (individual seating). This is an ideal activity should you be a keen bird watcher, wildlife photographer or first time visitor to the Okavango Delta.

Returning to camp at dusk, you are invited to enjoy a 'sundowner' in the bar prior / after freshening up for dinner.

Days 2 & 3: Chief's Camp, Moremi Game Reserve

Early morning freshly brewed tea and coffee enjoyed in your room will be followed by morning game activity.

You will have a choice of either a mokoro excursion (subject to water levels) or a game excursion in the Mombo area of the Moremi Game Reserve, an area renowned for its abundance of wildlife. Whatever your choice, the game viewing opportunities are excellent. On a mokoro excursion, for example, you will enjoy an experience unparalleled anywhere in the world. Gliding through papyrus-fringed channels (formed by hippos), you experience what the Chief of the Batawana himself might have felt. Armed with binoculars or a camera, you will be rewarded with birds in a rainbow of colours and indigenous wildlife found exclusively in the Delta.

A sumptuous brunch will be served when you return to the camp around mid-morning. This is a dining experience not to be missed - a fusion of African and Western cuisine, superbly blended into a Pan-African style of cooking! The day is then at your leisure prior to your late afternoon game activity and dinner.

Day 4: End of safari

Depending upon your flight times, you will experience a mokoro excursion (water levels dependant), followed by breakfast. After breakfast you will be transferred to the airstrip for your shared flight to Maun.
