Wild Botswana
in Summer

Botswana as a safari destination needs little to no introduction. It offers one of Africa’s premiere safari encounters for a good reason, often referred to as the Jewel of Africa. This exciting experience will showcase two of Botswana best safari regions – The Okavango Delta and Khwai Private Reserve, to you during the early summer period. Why over that time, you might ask? Well because it’s one of the best periods to experience Botswana.

Early summer brings the change of the season, leaving the dry period behind in exchange for summer clouds and the chance of afternoon thunderstorms. We could very well find ourselves in a blanket of green grass, large trees showing their new leaves and flowers, and the all-around excitement in the air as the spell from the intensely dry season gets broken. It’s a fantastic time of year to be on safari in Botswana, both as a nature lover and as a wildlife photographer.

On this tour, you will visit 3 unique safari camps. Although the bulk of our time will be spent in the Okavango Delta, we will see the best that Khwai Private Reserve has to offer, including a unique stay at Hyena Pan camp, situated on a waterhole that attracts a wealth of wildlife on a daily basis. We also spend an afternoon at a photographic hide that’s sunken into the earth, affording you an eye-level view of the subjects around you.

Only 4 guests in total will be on this safari. It’s the perfect way within which to see and experience Botswana, away from the crowds and in the company of like-minded individuals. If you’ve always wanted to see Botswana, or if this is a repeat experience for you, don’t miss this opportunity to join us for a very special safari experience.

The Jewel of Africa is waiting for you.

Itinerary

Arrival day, from Johannesburg via Maun

Depart Johannesburg on a morning flight and set course for Maun, Botswana. In Maun, we will board a flight that will take us directly into the heart of Botswana and on to our first camp for our first afternoon safari.

DAY 1

Khwai Private Reserve

These will be full days on safari within the Khwai Private Reserve. There will be twice daily safari activities. This experience includes an afternoon session in an underground eye-level waterhole hide.

DAY 2-4

Khwai Private Reserve

On this day you will transfer across by road to your new camp. This is a special camp, situated on a year-round water source in the heart of the Khwai Private Reserve.

DAY 5

Khwai Private Reserve

The day again will start early as you prepare to leave camp for game drive around sunrise. Due to the camp's location on an active waterhole, we will stick around a little longer here waiting and watching to see what comes down for a drink. Sometimes predators wander over and our day's game viewing could begin right in camp itself.

DAY 6

Okavango Delta

On this day we go across to the Okavango Delta for the final camp on this amazing experience. There will be time for lunch, a siesta and an afternoon safari outing.

DAY 7

Okavango Delta

These will be full days on safari in the Okavango Delta. There will be twice daily safari activities. This region is one of the most scenic in Africa and will be the crowing jewel on top of what would have already been an incredible Botswana experience.

DAY 8-9

Departure Day - back to Johannesburg via Maun

On our final day there will be time for a morning safari, breakfast and then the travel experience back to South Africa, signalling the end of this safari experience.
