The Okavango Delta is a vast inland river delta in northern Botswana. It's known for its sprawling grassy plains, which flood seasonally, becoming a lush animal habitat. The Moremi Game Reserve occupies the east and central areas of the region. Here, dugout canoes are used to navigate past hippos, elephants, and crocodiles. On dry land, wildlife includes African Bush Elephant, African Buffalo, Hippopotamus, Lechwe, Topi, Blue Wildebeest, Giraffe, Nile crocodile, Lion, Cheetah, Leopard, Brown Hyena, Spotted Hyena, Greater Kudu, Sable Antelope, Black Rhinoceros, White Rhinoceros, Plains Zebra, Warthog and Chacma Baboon. Notably, the endangered African Wild Dog still survives within the Okavango Delta and exhibits one of the richest pack densities in Africa.
In addition to the large animals, the Okavango Delta also supports over 500 species of birds and 85 recorded species of fish including Tigerfish, Tilapia and Catfish.
Overlooking the legendary Chiefs Island and bordering the Moremi Game Reserve, Gunn's Camp is one of the last few remaining luxury, vintage safari camps. Set under leafy palms and African Ebony to blend naturally with its unique surroundings, Gunn's Camp achieves a fine balance of comfort without isolating guests from the sights and sounds of the wilderness. You will spend two days exploring this region and enjoy the various Delta activities. This includes motor boat cruises, mokoro (dug out canoe) excursions, and guided game walks.
Your journey continues to Pom Pom Island; a private concession situated in the heart of the Okavango Delta and on the headwaters of the Xudum river system. The area lies on the western boundary of the Moremi Game Reserve and offers superb Okavango scenery and a true Okavango wilderness experience. You will spend the next two days exploring the plains and narrow canals on game drives, night drives, mokoro trips, game walks and motorboat cruises.
This tour is ideal for solo explorers, families, couples, and friends traveling together.
Your journey begins today with a 20-minute flight from Maun to Gunn's Camp, flying over the scenic Okavango Delta. On arrival, you are met and transferred from the airstrip to the camp. Your afternoon activity is a choice between a Mokoro trip, a game walk or a sunset cruise.
Your second day in the Delta includes a morning and afternoon activity. You have the choice of either a Mokoro trip, a game walk, or a motorboat cruise. The mokoro excursion is a real treat with a surprise brunch served on the island.
Accommodation: Gunns Camp
After an early morning activity and a warm breakfast, you will transfer to the airstrip for a short 10-minute scenic flight over the heart of the Okavango Delta to Rra Dinare Camp. On arrival, you will be welcomed by the friendly staff and taken to the camp for check-in. The next two days will be spent exploring the plains and narrow canals on game drives, night drives, mokoro trips, game walks and motorboat cruises.
Accommodation: Rra Dinare Camp
After your morning activity and breakfast, you will transfer to the airstrip to enjoy another scenic flight back to Maun over the Okavango Delta. You bid farewell to the delta as you begin your journey back home.

This Travel Firm is Ready for You!
We have completed the preliminary reservations with this amazing travel firm. Thank God they exist! We would never have been able to figure out how to put the pieces of our trip to AFRICA together without them. They are patient, caring, detailed, and responsive to communications…something you expect, but do not always receive when service is involved. Connect with them via email if you are even thinking about going to Africa. Cheers!

First time to Cape Town
We are a group of ten friends traveling together to Cape Town for the first time. Safari.com was our top choice for travel agents. Leché and Tracy were incredibly helpful and prompt with our questions and bookings. The trip to Sanbona Wildlife Reserve was fantastic, and everything went off without a hitch. We highly recommend Safari.com for your safari plans!
