THE OKAVANGO DELTA & BOTSWANA ENVIRONS
 

     



MOREMI GAME RESERVE:
Almost one third of the entire Okavango Delta is covered by the Moremi Wildlife Reserve, a diverse ecosystem consisting of riverine woodland, flood plains, wetlands and reed beds, mopane forest and dry savannah woodland. The reserve is best seen from a 4X4 safari vehicle or on boat trips. Here the permanent waters of the Okavango embrace the Kalahari thirstland. Ancient riverine forests and open savannah interweave with secret lagoons, serpentine channels and seasonal floodplains to create a habitat of unequalled beauty and abundance.
THE OKAVANGO DELTA:
The Delta is the largest inland delta system in the world and is a maze of lagoons and islands covering some 15,000 square kilometres. It is also home to an abundance of wildlife making it a most popular tourist attraction. Accommodation is mainly in large permanent tents with en suite facilities with camps sleeping around twelve to sixteen persons.

KWANDO & KWARA CONCESSIONS:
This vast unspoiled wilderness extends from the Okavango Delta, northward to Kwando and eastwards to Savuti and Chobe. Both the Kwando concession and Kwara in the Okavango Delta have substantial permanent water that sustains life in an otherwise in-hospitable environment. A unique wilderness experience.

LINYANTI WILDLIFE RESERVE:
The Linyanti Wildlife Reserve consists of 125,000 hectares of pristine wildlife area. It is bordered by the Linyanti River in the north and the Chobe National Park in the east. Across the Linyanti River northwards lies Namibia's Caprivi strip. Two thirds of the Savuti channel is situated within the reserve. This area is very different from the Okavango Delta and should be included in every Botswana itinerary. This private reserve is enormous and in one of the most remote and inaccessible parts of Botswana. The region is one of the least visited and most pristine corners of Botswana and the concession owners intend to keep it this way. The Linyanti region is shared between a very small number of private camps, ensuring that guests are able to view the abundant wildlife privately and exclusively.
