The Okavango Delta in Botswana is a unique ecosystem that is situated in the middle of one of the largest stretches of sand in the world - the Kalahari basin. It lies like an oasis in an inhospitable landscape. The vegetation is lush and the wildlife is of the very best in Africa. The Okavango Delta covers 16000km. It is one of the largest inland deltas in the world.

The Okavango River starts on the Benguela Plateau in Angola, meanders through Kalahari sand of 1300km before entering Botswana and flows south towards the town Maun in the Thamalakane.

The delta forms many islands in high season, which also act as a base camp for your mokoro and walking safari experience. The wildlife of this area is amongst the best in the world, and certainly situated in the most un spoilt corner of Africa.

Great herds of antelopes, Buffalo and Elephants roam through the pastures and Lions and Leopards are often seen. The Okavango Delta's plant life is as spectacular as its wildlife. The plant life include the Delta palm tree in the perennial swamps, reeds and papyrus, and the waters provide an ecosystem for Fish Eagles and Kingfishers, Hippopotami, Crocodiles and Tiger fish. In some of the more tranquil lagoons, underwater plants also thrive.
