Here's a summary of what you might get up to day-to-day on this Botswana holiday. As always, this is just an idea. Every single day of your trip will be tailored to suit you.
Your Botswana adventure begins with an overnight flight from London to Johannesburg.
Board a connecting flight to Kasane, taking roughly two hours. Here you will be greeted and transferred to the waterfront for a two night stay at Chobe Chilwero. The finest lodge in the area also happens to boast a luxurious spa, ideal for downtime between activities.
Morning and afternoon game viewing activities around Chobe. You will want to explore the national park on game drives and take a river cruise to watch elephants, buffalo and antelope come to the water.
This morning's activity ends at Kasane airport, for a light aircraft flight to the Selinda Concession, in the Linyanti Wetlands. A three-night stay at Zarafa Camp will be the height of safari decadence.
Morning and afternoon game drives take in the teeming wildlife of the concession, its wide open plains and tree islands perfect for big elephant herds and prides of lion. You may also choose to explore the Zibidianja Lagoon by boat or on a walking safari close to the banks, whilst also enjoying some time to relax on your private deck or take a dip in your plunge pool.
After a morning activity you'll fly by light aircraft to the Jao Concession, an authentic Delta "wet reserve," for a three-night stay at one of Botswana's most stylish camps.
Soak up the unrivalled lush Delta scenery whilst you drift through the peaceful waterways on a traditional Mokoro and meet the wetland wildlife up close. Game drives are also offered throughout the year. Meanwhile, enjoy a little pampering at the beautiful bush spa, where you can enjoy a range of massage treatments with an African twist.
This morning you'll fly south to the unique Makgadikgadi Pans, where you will stay for three nights and explore the stark, lunar landscapes and panoramic horizons that have to be witnessed to be believed.
Nature drives in this area are always fascinating, becoming full-on game drives with vast herds of migrating zebra followed by opportunistic predators during the rainy season. The primeval history of this area is etched on the pans, with ancient stone tools to discover with your guide. Varied activities here can include meerkat encounters, Bushman interaction, quad biking and sleepouts on the pans.
After breakfast, it's a light aircraft transfer to Maun and a flight to Johannesburg where you will connect with your overnight flight home.
