Okavango Delta, Chobe & the Kalahari · Africa
The best of Botswana (2026)
The Okavango Delta and Chobe: mokoro trips, huge elephant herds and fly-in camps.
Botswana runs a low-volume, high-value safari model: small fly-in camps in the Okavango Delta and its private concessions, Chobe's elephant herds and the Makgadikgadi salt pans. It pairs easily with Kruger via Johannesburg or Victoria Falls.
