Perhaps the finest game experience in the whole of Africa, Botswana has become legendary with safari connoisseurs. The pristine and well-managed wildlife reserves, along with the intimate nature of the camp sites, promise visitors a highly personalized and active gameviewing adventure.

Itinerary
Day 1, Johannesburg, South Africa
Touch down in the 'City of Gold' with time to relax and acclimate before tomorrow's venture into Botswana.
THE WESTCLIFF (L1), MELROSE ARCH HOTEL (L2)
Day 2 - 3, Okavango Delta
Arrive into Maun, Botswana and transfer to your bush plane for the short flight to your luxury tented camp. The Okavango Delta is a pristine wildlife oasis in the heart of southern Africa. It is here and in the surrounding game rich areas that you will search for both predators and prey. Have your camera ready in hopes of finding lion, leopard, spotted hyena and the endangered wild dog. If you are very fortunate, the Pel's Fishing-Owl may make an appearance. Gameviewing activities are dictated by the water levels: 4 x 4 safari vehicles, mokoros (canoes) and motorboats allow for a variety of experiences.
EAGLE ISLAND CAMP (L1), KWETSANI CAMP (L2)
Day 4 - 6, Chobe or Linyanti
Chobe or Linyanti are adjacent regions to the northwest offering a contrasting terrain to the delta. Chobe’s often semiarid Savute region is known for large herds of elephant and prides of lion. The wildlife rich Linyanti is comprised of mopane woodland and bisected by the Savute Channel. Early morning and late afternoon game drives afford plenty of opportunities to capture the perfect photographs.
SAVUTE ELEPHANT CAMP (L1), SAVUTE CAMP (L2)
Day 7 - 8, Livingstone, Zambia
Bid farewell to your new 'bush friends' and proceed, by bush flight, to Livingstone. Enjoy a stay in an inclusive lodge on the Zambezi River.

TONGABEZI COTTAGE (L1), TOKA LEYA (L2)
