Excursion Overview
Since most Delta concessions require you to fly-in by light aircraft, there is little doubt that you will get the chance to view this remarkable tableau of waterways, tree islands and expansive floodplains from the sky, with sensational panoramic vistas that you are unlikely to forget. For real airborne enthusiasts there is the chance to book a helicopter flight, which might last for longer than an inter-reserve transfer and will provide more scope for focusing on specific landscapes and wildlife. Your pilot can also swoop and soar to various altitudes throughout the flight, which is not possible in the same way on a light aircraft transfer that is merely intended to take passengers from A to B. The larger wildlife such as elephants, giraffe and hippo are certainly identifiable from the skies, even when travelling solo, while the large herds of buffalo, zebra and antelope take on a new grandeur from on high. Guests booking this experience will usually get around 45 minutes in the air, with &Beyond's Xudum and Xaranna camps among those that can offer this activity for guests.

We had an amazing time in Botswana, thanks to Holiday Architects. We originally booked the trip 4 years ago and having postponed it 3 times due to Covid, it was great to finally get to Southern Africa! A stay at the Pangolin Hotel in Chobe followed by a stay at Sango Safari Camp in the Okavango Delta were real highlights of our trip. Kirsty made sure the trip all went to plan when we actually managed to get away in May 2023, and Kirsty was also very helpful each time we had to rearrange it in the preceding 3 years. I would certainly have no hesitation in recommending Holiday Architects or using them again in the future.

First-class organisation and communication throughout. Many many thanks to Kirsty for putting our amazing family trip to Botswana and Zimbabwe together. The entire holiday was everything and more than billed. This is my second big family holiday with HA and I’ll definitely be using them again. Thank you. 5 stars.
