CLASSIC BOTSWANA – SILVER

KEY DETAILS

OVERVIEW

Classic Botswana is a 9 night, three camp safari itinerary taking in a diverse range of habitats, of wildlife and of game viewing experiences.

The safari starts in the south of the Okavango Delta at Chitabe Camp, (or Chitabe Lediba for families) a stunning land based activity camp overlooking a floodplain, just a short hop by light aircraft from Maun before moving northwards to Savuti Camp, a mixed activity camp on the edge of the Savute Channel in the Linyanti. Your safari finishes at Little Vumbura, which is located on one of the Okavango’s permanent water channels, where activities range from game viewing in open top 4×4 safari vehicles, through to guided walks and afternoons spent in a mokoro (dugout canoe) gliding silently through the crystal clear waterways.

The itinerary is tailor-made safari and can be adapted to suit your requirements.

ITINERARY

Tanzania-Lake-Manyara-Lake-Manyara-Serena-Lodge-Tree-Climbing-Lion1

DAY 1

Met having cleared customs and immigration upon arrival into Maun and taken to your light aircraft for the short transfer to southern-eastern Okavango Delta and Chitabe Camp for a three night stay.

DAY 2 & 3

Land based game viewing activities as arranged by Chitabe Camp in open top 4×4 safari vehicles by day or night. A typical day begins just before dawn with a three hour gentle game drive followed by a relaxing day spent in camp (or on a guided walk). The evening game drive departs after tea at about 16:30 with a sun-downer before returning to camp for dinner.

DAY 4

Light aircraft transfer from Chitabe Camp to Savuti Camp in the Linyanti – depending on whether there are stops en-route, the flight will take between 30 to 40 minutes and affords a superb view over the Okavango. Savuti Camp set on the edge of the Savute Channel is home for the next three nights.

DAY 5 & 6

Game viewing activities as arranged by Savuti Camp – activities are varied with day and night 4×4 game drives, boating (water levels dependent), guided walks and a hide for bird watching.

DAY 8 & 9

Game viewing activities as arranged by Little Vumbura, where the bias is towards water-based activities, although game drives in open top 4×4 safari vehicles, guided walks and trips in mekoros are also offered.

DAY 10

Light aircraft flight to Maun in time to connect with your onward international flight – or perhaps an extension to the Kalahari Desert for something totally different?
