Accommodations are in specially designed twin bedded, insect proof tents with double fly sheets with sewn-in floors. Each tent has its own bucket shower and bush toilet, and a daily laundry service is provided.

Footsteps Across the Delta is a truly unique way to experience the African wilderness. Here you will spend your days exploring this fascinating area led by your Professional Guide on foot, by mokoro (traditional dugout canoe) and vehicle as required. Days are planned as you go, beginning with a full safety briefing and short walk to get you accustomed to the bush and further exploring as the days unfold.

Every evening you return to camp to enjoy a piping hot bush shower and the ambience of dining by candlelight, relaxing by the fire and sleeping amidst the sounds of the wilderness.

This morning you will be transferred by light aircraft to Delta Camp. On arrival you will be welcomed by the Camp Managers and shown to your room. You will be accommodated in a East Africa style walk in Meru Tent with private en-suite facilities. Enjoy a leisurely buffet lunch and a little later this afternoon your guide will take you on a mokoro excursion where you explore the channels which have excellent birdlife. There is also a chance of seeing Hippo, Elephant and Crocodile as well as numerous antelope species. While on your activity enjoy sundowners while in the mokoro and watch the sun sizzles as it sets on the waterways. Return to the camp in time to freshen up before a delicious dinner accompanied by the sounds of the African bush.

An early morning wake-up call, some tea, coffee and biscuits, and then accompanied by your Guide you go out on a walking safari – really the ONLY way to go out on safari, on foot, accompanied by a man whose knowledge of the Okavango and its wildlife and plants will astound you. You can, in all safety track and stalk animals that you are particularly interested in seeing, a truly remarkable experience. After a leisurely three hour walk, conducted at your pace, you will return to Delta Camp for a hearty Brunch and a rest during the heat of the day. A little later this afternoon enjoy another mokoro excursion returning to the camp by sunset.  Enjoy a leisurely dinner.

This intimate and informal safari camp nestles on a small Falcon close to the south-western edge of Chief’s Falcon, heart of the Okavango Delta – the vast oasis of the Kgalagadi Desert, Botswana. Accommodation is in spacious ‘lethaka’ (reed) chalets with en-suite facilities. The amazing design of the Chalets is such that you enjoy the luxuries of a ‘top rate’ hotel, but without affecting the environment; you will find you share your chalet with the trees around which the chalets have been built rather than having been cut down during their construction.

Your chalet at Delta Camp directly overlooks the waterways. Delta Camp is on the banks of the Boro River, one of the primary watercourses of the Okavango.

Excursions, by foot and mokoro – the traditional dug-out canoe – are conducted in the renowned Moremi Game Reserve, with your own professional game-guide, a man of the swamps, completely at one with his environment.

Dine in the elegant Dining Room overlooking the sweep of the Delta, or take a beautifully prepared picnic onto one of the many nearby Falcons for a secluded and intimate experience.

This unusual Camp engenders in its staff and guests alike, an acute awareness of the ecological sensitivity of this magnificent area. Bio-degradable products have been sourced and are used, careful separation and treatment of refuse ensures that nothing that is not fully bio-degradable stays on the Falcon – light aircraft remove cans, bottles and the like from the Okavango altogether.

The accent is on peace and tranquility (stalking game on foot provides all the excitement one could wish for) and guests are actively encouraged to visit a local village, home to our guides, and to interact, should they wish to, with the people there.

After a light breakfast and morning activity (time permitting) you will be assisted onto your charter flight to Makgadikgadi. Upon your arrival you will be met by your guide and assisted onto your road transfer through the dry arid landscape to the lodge. On arrival you will be welcomed by the management who will show you to your room, give a brief overview of the lodge and area and will then discuss which activities you would like to do during your stay. Ntwetwe Pan and Sua Pan, together with numerous smaller pans, form the Makgadikgadi Pans system. The pans are the remnants of the once great Lake Makgadikgadi: 80,000 square kilometres in extent, and up to 30 metres deep, this was the largest inland sea in Africa. In the wet season, this vast area of salt pans interspersed with low-lying grass Falcons is the destination of herds of migrating zebra. It has an un-spoilt beauty unlike any other part of Africa. Situated on Hyena Falcon, Camp Kalahari is a real bush camp offering the very essence of Africa. Accommodation is in comfortable twin-bedded cottage tents secluded among palms and acacias. All tents have en-suite bathrooms and there is a dip pool for refuge from the midday heat. The traditionally built mess, with its thatched roof and open fireplace, provides the perfect ambience for relaxation at the end of the day. Around the flickering fire the day’s events are recounted, whilst your host conjures up the spirit of Africa. Legends of the bush gently unfold, punctuated by calls of the wild from the surrounding Makgadikgadi Pans. An early breakfast precedes your day’s exploration of the pans by 4×4 quad motorcycles – the most environmentally friendly way to explore the area, as well as being GREAT FUN!. In the evening, after aperitifs, your hosts invite you to join them at an elegant table for a three course dinner, combining international cuisine with the best of African fare and accompanied by elegant wines from South Africa. At Camp Kalahari you can go on walks, night drives, game/ nature drives and a visit to a running cattle outpost if you wish. There is lovely seating around the camp where you can just sit and relax and take in the beautiful scenery. At Makgadikgadi you have Mopane veld, grass planes with palm Falcons as well as lunar landscapes. At the salt pans you can also visit archeological sites where they are discovering tools etc 30 000 – 100 000 years old.

After breakfast and an early morning activity you will be transferred by road to the airstrip in time for your charter flight to Maun, and your onward flight to OR Tambo (formerly Johannesburg) International Airport.
