Why you should visit
A miracle of nature in the heart of the Kalahari, the Okavango Delta is one of Africa’s most iconic and biodiverse ecosystems. This vast inland delta floods seasonally, creating a lush, ever-changing mosaic of channels, lagoons, islands, and floodplains. It’s a haven for wildlife: elephants, buffalo, hippos, and antelope thrive here, alongside predators like lions, leopards, and wild dogs. The Delta’s unique water-based safari experience — by mokoro or boat — offers an intimate perspective on this UNESCO World Heritage Site’s extraordinary beauty and stillness.
Our favourite time to visit
From June to October, the annual flood reaches its peak, drawing wildlife to the delta’s life-giving waters. This is the best time for both land and water-based safaris, with excellent game viewing, birdlife, and dramatic landscapes — a rare chance to witness nature in perfect balance.
