Classic safari in some of the most exclusive, game-filled parks in Southern Africa

This is a genuine wilderness safari through some of the finest areas of southern Africa and the full service camping offers a wonderful mix of being able to sleep close to nature in comfort. Famed for its beautiful sunset cruises, Chobe National Park has a large concentration of both elephant and lion. Moremi has a dense variety of wildlife and there is every opportunity of viewing buffalo, lion, leopard and even the endangered wild dog. The Okavango River is the third largest in Africa. Unlike most rivers, the Okavango does not end at the sea: it has created the largest inland delta in the world in the heart of Botswana. The best way to appreciate the beauty of this unique habitat is to travel by mokoro (dugout canoe) and spot the countless species of game and birds that reside here.
