Tau Pan
Day 1 - 3
The dramatic desert of legend and home of the San. Tau Pan Camp was the first lodging welcomed to the famous Central Kalahari Game Reserve and an unprecedented opportunity to establish camp in one of the world's largest pristine wildernesses. It occupies unrivalled placement high on a dune ridge, overlooking a waterhole and game-rich plains. The vistas are magnificent — vast skies, tremendous savannah — and the camp design takes every opportunity to exploit this location. The main area includes an open bar, lounge and dining areas all set around the fireplace, which is the ideal spot for spotting game at the waterhole. 'Tau' means lion in Setswana and the pan is so named for its pride of iconic black-maned Kalahari lions, who are frequent visitors to the camp. Discover the land of the lion through ancient San eyes. Also known as the Bushmen in Botswana, indigenous trackers provide life-giving insights on surviving in this harsh paradise during a spellbinding nature walk. When you enter this world as a student, it ensures the conservation of their fast-vanishing San culture. Stargazing is astonishing in this remote location and best experienced with a night below the Milky Way on the sleepout deck.

Upon arrival at Maun Airport, you will catch your light aircraft flight to the Central Kalahari Game Reserve. When you land at the local airstrip, a guide from Tau Pan Camp will meet you and transfer you to the camp. You will settle in and then enjoy a shared afternoon safari activity.

Moremi Crossing
Day 3 - 6
Slow down and smell the wild sage at Moremi Crossing Camp. Whether stealthily tracking wildlife on foot or silently moving through the Okavango Delta's waterways on a mokoro, time slows down in the Gunn's Private Concession. With its location across from the famous Chief's Island, this traditional walking and water-based camp now offers game drives. Moremi Crossing is also an excellent option for big groups. Seasonal game drives provide front-row seats to the wildlife, but with an abundance of postcard-perfect lagoons and floodplains, nature walks, and water-based explorations are the Moremi Crossing forte. Stretch your legs on a guided nature walk that transforms your safari into a sensory experience. You'll learn to track, understand medicinal plant uses and so much more by roaming between lofty termite mounds to gain perspective over the landscape (much like a cheetah). You can also go on an immersive camping experience overnight in the wild for an extra dose of adventure. Fitting seamlessly into the island's riverine forest of magnificent palms and ancient trees with views of the Boro River, Moremi Crossing is sociable with a simple, back-to-basics approach. Accommodation consists of 16 en suite and spacious tents on raised decks, each with a veranda. These include a Family Tent and a Honeymoon Tent.
Day 3
Day Notes:
Depending on the departure time for your next light aircraft flight, you will be able to experience another shared morning safari activity in the Central Kalahari Game Reserve. After breakfast, you will be taken back to the local airstrip for your onward light aircraft flight to the Moremi Game Reserve. You will be welcomed at the airstrip and taken to Moremi Crossing Camp. Settle in and have lunch before joining your first shared afternoon safari activity.

Kwando Private Reserve, Botswana

Lagoon
Day 6 - 8
Lagoon Camp sits gracefully on the shaded banks of the Kwando River, nestled among towering ebony and marula trees. This densely forested site hosts a diverse range of birds and mammals. Such breathtaking scenery and close proximity to wildlife create a serene camp atmosphere. With a well-earned reputation for big game, this area is renowned for its seasonal large herds of elephants and buffalo. In the winter, herds of up to a thousand are commonplace, and the riverbank is a popular spot for large numbers of elephants to gather in full view of the main camp deck.
Day 6
Day Notes:
Enjoy your last shared morning safari activity (time permitting), and breakfast in the Okavango Delta before flying to the Kwando Private Reserve. You will be met by your new guide and taken to Lagoon Camp. Settle in and enjoy a shared afternoon game drive.

Botswana – 11-day Okavango Delta and Chobe Safari
Ines was very professional and patient with all the setbacks my family faced not only with COVID issues but also with finding dates and availability of our travelers. Dealing with airline cancellations and Covid testing was challenging even until departure. We could not have traveled so "easily" under the circumstances without her!

The individual with whom we worked was knowledgeable, helpful, and very responsive; our requests were met; our experience with her was great.
