Okavango Delta Mobile Safaris

The unsurpassed wildlife diversity that Botswana has to offer is best experienced on the move and Okavango Delta Mobile Safaris provides a more adventurous and authentic alternative to the usual permanent camps. With the flexibility to move the camp into the remotest areas of the Okavango Delta, Central Kalahari and the Chobe, Okavango Delta Mobile Safaris can accommodate personal tastes and preferences offering a wider variety of experiences and areas than a permanent camp.

A private expedition allows you to immerse yourself completely in the incredible spectacles the delta has to offer. If you choose to watch lions hunting or spend the day at a busy waterhole the decision is yours. Observe elephants from the safety of boats as they wash and feed on the roots of aquatic plants. Picnic and siesta in the arms of a giant baobab tree and spend the afternoon seeking out hyaena dens and as the day cools down, watch for hunting cats.

Nights are spent in traditional and spacious tents appointed with 1920s luxury and style blend bygone comfort with rugged panache. Polished copper water jugs, paraffin lamps, pure white cotton sheets and feather bedding ensure an authentic safari experience. Each meal is a special experience; imagine lunch sheltering under the shady bough of an acacia or dinner beneath the astral blaze of the Milky Way. An essential part of any successful expedition, meals are beautifully prepared and presented by the skilled kitchen team. Tables decked with crisp white damask and silver are set against the rugged austerity of the African bush.

As for the expeditions, only the most experienced and well-qualified will guide. Carefully trained, each qualified Biologist/Guide must have a minimum of at least two years guiding experience in the Kalahari providing guests a holistic understanding of this magical and pristine wilderness environment. The areas visited are remote, wild and starkly beautiful. Putt along the maze of channels stopping to admire the fantastic bird life. Learn about the ecology of the waters and look at the important components of the ecosystems. Walking, game drives and boat trips fade seamlessly into one enthralling expedition.

Listed are two set itineraries - 5 nights in the Delta and 7 nights in the Delta. However, fully customaziable itineraries are available. Please contact Global Basecamps to build your very own itinerary.
