1 Chobe Chilwero Lodge, an A&K Sanctuary, Kasane
Your arrival point is a short drive from your lodge in Chobe National Park, a great patchwork of deep, dense forest, sprawling wetlands and zebra-grazed grasslands. Be it at dawn or dusk, wildlife photographers come in the hope of spotting the park’s starry cast of wildlife. Settle into your lodge and relax before afternoon game viewing. Chobe Chilwero Lodge is a luxurious retreat in the heart of the bush, located on the edge of Chobe National Park, with panoramic views over the Chobe River and floodplain below from the lodges’ hilltop location.
Start your day early with a hot beverage before joining your guide for a thrilling morning game drive. Watch as the animals stir to life and start their day. Return for a late breakfast and a well-deserved siesta. Late in the afternoon, take off on an evening game drive coupled with a bush sundowner, set to a backdrop of stunning views before driving back for dinner.
A bush flight takes you from Chobe and delivers you to the Okavango Delta, the largest inland delta in the world and home to an estimated 9,000 species of flora and fauna. No surprise, the delta is widely regarded as one of the premium destinations for game viewing. Arrive at Stanley's Camp, a classic tented camp located in a private concession in the Okavango Delta. This intimate camp features only ten safari canvas tents, each with a large wooden deck providing private areas to relax while soaking in the surrounding sights and sounds. The remainder of your day is free for game viewing.
Spend a full day exploring this one-of-a-kind riverine ecosystem known for its grassy plains, seasonal waterways and islands that are home to a vast number of animals, including hippos, lions, elephants, buffalo, wildebeests, cheetahs and many bird species.
Another day in the delta begins with an early wakeup call and an exciting morning game drive. After breakfast back at camp, use the downtime to rest in your tent or lounge in the main area. Late afternoon finds you heading out for your next game viewing experience, followed by dinner in camp.
Fly by bush plane to your next camp, extraordinary Chief’s Camp located on an island in Moremi Game Reserve, possibly the most game-rich region in all of Africa. The camp features ten stylish bush pavilions each featuring a private dining area, tranquil outside seating area and a terrace pool — all perfect for absorbing the surrounding plains and majestic African skies. Get to know the camp as you settle in, before setting out for some afternoon game viewing.
Small but mighty Moremi is located in the Okavango Delta’s central and eastern regions. Some of Africa’s most endangered species of large mammal can be seen in these savannas and floodplains: cheetahs, leopards, lions and African wild dogs, a roll call of the superstars of safari. Spend your last adventure-packed day seeing how many you spot on morning and afternoon game viewing excursions.
