Travel Idea Including Botswana

Itinerary:

Day 1. A morning departure takes you from Livingstone over into Namibia and driving through the Caprivi to our camp on the banks of the Kwando River. In the afternoon you will go on a game drive to the famous Horse Shoe Lake. This is the closest water available to the Caprivi National Park so at times can be one of the best places to see vast herds of Elephants and other game.

Distance: 230 km.
Lunch Stop: At a picnic spot en route.
Accommodation: Kwando Lodge (tents, wash rooms with hot water, bar and swimming pool).

Day 2-3. We leave our camp on the Caprivi for Etsha, on the western border of the Okavango Delta. From here, 4x4 vehicles and motorboats transfer us to our Camp (1 hours), where we spend the night. The next 2 days are spent exploring the network of water pathways through thick vegetation in mokoros (traditional dugout canoes) and speedboat. The Delta is a well-preserved gem of Africa with a vast oasis of crystal clear lakelets, lagoons and palm-fringed islands. On our last evening in the Delta we feast with a braai (barbeque).

Day 4. We leave early and head southeast to Nata camp. You have the option of doing a game flight in Maun - the gateway to the Okavango Delta. After setting up our camp in Nata we'll enjoy a relaxing night.

Day 5. In the early morning you'll have option of quad-biking or a Pan Drive. We'll make our way to Chobe National Park where the afternoon is spent on a sunset cruise game viewing in a part of Africa's unspoiled wilderness. Chobe has and abundance of Game whose distinctive calls can be heard throughout the night.

Day 6. After a relaxing breakfast we make our way back to where we started our unforgettable experience - Livingstone.
