Okavango Safari: The World's Biggest Inland Delta

A walking safari from Baines' Camp, Okavango Delta, Botswana

Considered one of Nature’s masterpieces, the Okavango Delta offers visitors an insight into one of Africa’s truly great wildernesses. A World Heritage Site, this vast and virtually untouched freshwater wetland lies at the heart of Botswana’s arid Kalahari Desert yet supports an abundance of wildlife within a setting of dazzling natural beauty.

Protected in part by the Moremi Game Reserve and numerous private concessions, the Okavango Delta is home to huge numbers of plains game plus unusual antelope like puku, sitatunga and red lechwe. It is a world-famous stronghold for predators as well as many sought-after bird species like Pel's fishing owl, bee-eaters and kingfishers.

  • Astounding Water-based Safaris

    Nowhere else in the world can you experience the sublime serenity of being poled along in a traditional dugout canoe as birds like jacanas and herons walk among the lilies, elephants arrive to feed on the soft grass and sitatunga antelope retreat shyly into the reeds. Leaving the 4×4 game-vehicle behind opens up the world's most unspoilt wetland of the Botswana Okavango Delta to be explored by mokoro or motor boat.

    • Seasonal water levels will be for mokoro rides and boating activities.
    • Look out for tiny painted reed frogs and dazzling dragonflies.
    • Unusually tall termite mounds and baobabs that escape the floodwaters.
    • A unique activity available nowhere else in Africa for a select number of guests.
  • Some of Africa's Most Exclusive Accommodation

    Safaris in Botswana offer exceptional accommodation locations in pristine wilderness. Botswana has some of the continent's toughest conservation rules: all lodges must be able to be disassembled in 24 hours and not leave a trace behind. Despite this, the accommodation is superb and highly creative. Mostly constructed from timber, many lodges are raised on stilts to cope with the varying water levels, giving you gorgeous views over the Delta.

    • Some camps have only three or four suites, making them very private.
    • Romance is provided by 4-poster beds, outdoor bathtubs and private plunge pools.
    • For a special experience, spend the night in a sky bed that is open to the stars.
    • Fly in via light aircraft to private airstrips in the African Delta.
    • Unfenced camps allow wildlife to wander through.
  • Luxury and Excellent Customer Service

  • Vast Private Concessions for Less-Crowded Safaris

    There are several legendary private concessions for an immersive Delta Safari – like Jao Plains, Abu, Nxabega, Khwai and Kwando – that are not open to the public but to guests only. Expect low visitor numbers, very few vehicles and an unhurried approach to sightings. Camps are very well spaced and offer some of the purest game viewing in the most pristine conditions anywhere in the world. Look out for rare species like sable and roan antelope as well as honey badgers if you're very lucky!

    • Night drives are permitted so you may see lions hunting and nocturnal animals like porcupine, aardvark, genet, civet and owls.
    • Go on guided nature walks to get closer to the smaller fauna and flora.
    • Experienced guides will go off-road to get you closer to sightings and kills.
    • One of the top destinations to see leopards is the Okavango Delta, Botswana.
  • Plenty Activities for First-timers and Returning Travellers

    Safaris in Botswana, Okavango Delta truly offer something for everyone. First-timers will have a mind-blowing safari that surpasses their expectations, but even seasoned safari-goers will not be left disappointed. Because there is so much to do, the Okavango Delta safari is perfect for multi-generational families.

    • Game drives, birding, boating, mokoro rides and nature walks.
    • Catch-and-release fishing, village visits and photography hides.
    • First-timers will enjoy a gentle introduction to Africa with great logistics.
    • Returning safari lovers can go to more remote areas seldom explored by others.
    • Couples can enjoy a safari honeymoon with plunge pools and starbeds
  • Easily Combined with Other Destinations

    Yet despite its wild nature, the Okavango Delta is surprisingly accessible and can be combined with other spectacular African destinations.

Where to Go in The Okavango Delta

A sundowner at Baines' Camp, Okavango Delta, Botswana

Intact, largely unthreatened, and virtually undeveloped, the Okavango Delta is a complex natural ecosystem that varies in size and mood according to season. It’s important to know however that the Okavango Delta is not just a wetland: Angolan floodwaters from June to September can double the size of the permanent swamps at the core of the delta but great areas of the Okavango Delta are dry woodland, thick riverine forest, and grassy floodplains throughout the year.

To ensure your expectations are met, work with your safari expert about where to go in the Okavango Delta, and at what time of year.

  • Moremi Game Reserve: One of Africa's Best Reserves

    Okavango Delta, Botswana

    Protecting the eastern and central regions of the Okavango Delta, the Moremi Game Reserve is one of Africa’s most beautiful and wildlife-rich conservation areas. Game viewing is excellent in Moremi’s diverse habitats: elephant, buffalo and lion sightings are common, the bird watching is amazing and it’s a famous stronghold for leopard and wild dog.

    The Moremi Game Reserve is located in the region’s east and central regions of the Okavango Delta. Mokoro safaris are a fantastic way to see hippos, elephants, and crocodiles on the intricate water channels of the Okavango swamps. Several top-class lodges are located in Moremi and on its fringes where there is an emphasis on game drives, though many lodges offer water-based activities too.

  • Chief's Island: Game Drives & Walking Safaris

    The spectacular beach of Grand Anse on the island of La Digue , Seychelles

    An inverted oasis of permanently dry land at the heart of the Okavango Delta, Chief’s Island is big game country, a place where the animals that need water – but don’t necessarily like getting their feet wet – thrive.

    Some 60km long and around 10km wide, the island is where both game drives and guided walks take place and many lodges – including the luxurious Chief’s Camp – are set either on it or close by. Part of Moremi Game Reserve, the island’s wide range of habitats make for excellent bird watching and Chief’s Island is home to all the major predators including impressive numbers of the African wild dog – Africa's painted wolf.

  • Private Concessions: Exclusivity, Night Drives & Off-Roading

    Clustered around the Moremi Game Reserve are private concessions – clearly defined, sole-use areas of the Okavango Delta leased from the authorities and run by individual operators. Staying at one is a great option in that not only do private concessions deliver game viewing as good as Moremi’s but most only accommodate one or two lodges and so the low number of visitors means a very exclusive, away-from-the-crowds experience.

    Furthermore, operators in private concessions aren’t bound by Moremi’s strict regulations and offer night drives and off-road driving to enhance your wildlife sightings. Wildlife encounters are led by experienced and passionate guides. Most of these guides grew up locally and are experts on the area, who care deeply for the environment and its preservation.

  • Land-Based Camps: Classic Game Viewing

    Luxury tents at Camp Xakanaxa, Moremi Game Reserve, Botswana

    With much of the Okavango Delta dry for large parts of the year, land-based camps are sometimes unable to offer water-based activities outside of the flood season. In compensation, the game viewing at these camps is usually excellent and with game drives offered in the morning, afternoon and early evening, you’ll be well rewarded with an array of diverse sightings. Guided walks are offered at some land-based camps and given the juxtaposition of land and water. Plus, the bird watching is superb.

  • Water-Based Camps: Boat Trips, Canoeing & Walks

    Located on the edge of permanent lagoons and rivers, many water-based camps offer game drives, but the emphasis is more on providing a pure wetland experience. These lodges, usually beautifully located, are where to go in the Okavango Delta for guaranteed water-based activities such as mokoro and motorboat safaris as well as fishing trips. Tiger Fish bring fishing enthusiasts from all over the world to the waters of the Delta. The game viewing is not as spectacular as at land-based camps but guided walks on the many small islands of the permanent swamps are often a highlight.

  • Maun: Gateway to The Okavango Delta

    Aerial view of Okavango Delta, Botswana, with a dozen mokoros

    A classic ‘frontier town’, Maun is the gateway to the Okavango Delta either via charter aircraft or land transfers. There’s nothing remarkable about this dusty, bustling, sun-baked village and there are few places of interest to detain you – you’ll more than likely fly in on a regional or local flight only to fly out again on your charter flight – but a central hotel and several lodges located out of town provide adequate accommodation if a night’s stop-over is required.

The Best Time to Go to the Okavango Delta

Okavango Delta, Botswana

The best time to visit the Okavango Delta is between June and August and from September to October – however, a winning combination of permanent wetlands and abundant resident wildlife means the Okavango Delta is a year-round safari destination. The November to April rainy summer season sees it transform from an excellent birdwatching destination to a sensational one.

  • Month by Month Guide for Travelling to the Okavango Delta: 

  • Visiting the Okavango Delta between January and March

    January is the rainiest month, with regular thunderstorms that break in the late afternoon. As fewer people visit this month, the camps and lodges in the Okavango tend to be quiet, and there are great safari specials to take advantage of.

    February and March have a similar climate to January. These summer months are highly unpredictable weatherwise. The landscape is lush and green, with the water levels of the Okavango Delta at their lowest, but there are still wonderful opportunities for exceptional game viewing and Okavango Delta tours.

  • Travelling to the Okavango Delta in April & May

    April is a beautiful month to be anywhere in the Okavango Delta, particularly on the water, enjoying motorboat and mokoro (traditional dugout canoe) trips – the best being in the north and west of the region. This is the month when the Okavango Delta floodwaters begin to rise and you can experience a luxury Botswana safari.

    In May, as the surface water evaporates on the surrounding Kalahari Plains, more and more wild animals are drawn to the rising floodwaters, especially along the Delta's northern concessions. Those who visit the Okavango Delta often gush about May being their favorite month. Predator sightings are not as prolific as later in the season, but experienced trackers and guides are adept at finding animals in just about any season.

  • Visiting the Okavango Delta between June and August

    By June, the thinning vegetation of the Okavango Delta makes predator spotting easier and all manner of safari activities are on offer across the region. June is one of the best times to visit the Okavango Delta, especially if you are looking to try a mix of water and land-based activities. Being a popular month, it's advisable to plan well in advance.

    July to October is a good time to see the endangered African wild dog, particularly in the northern concessions. This is also the time to see the Delta at its fullest – as it spills its main channels into the Kalahari Desert.

    In August, the wildlife viewing only improves as the dry season continues, and it is now peak safari season. Keen birders are in for a treat with thousands of herons, storks, and egrets arriving to start building their nests.  If you're interested in fishing, the catfish run is impressive, a feeding frenzy that populates the main channels and attracts hungry predators.

  • Visiting the Okavango Delta from September to December

    September and October are some of the best months for predator sightings. The Moremi Game Reserve is where to visit in the Okavango Delta during this time. With the lack of rain causing many waterholes to dry up across Botswana, you'll find that many animals trek hundreds of miles to the Okavango Delta.

    Early November is usually a hot month as the coming of the rains is imminent. Once the rains arrive, the antelope birthing season begins and the Okavango Delta becomes a haven for new life, which attracts the heavyweight predators.

    December is the second wettest month of the year and afternoon showers are dramatic spectacles. December is the month of rejuvenation for the African bush after a long period of heat and dust.

  • Top Travel Tips for the Okavango Delta

    Water camps v land camps: make sure you know exactly what kind of camp you are planning to visit. Although most camps offer a range of activities, lodges located at permanent water sites offer boating and canoe safaris throughout the year whereas camps in seasonally flooded areas focus more on game drives and may not offer water activities during the low water season.

    Moremi Game Reserve v Private Concessions: Moremi delivers incredible game viewing but the adjoining private concessions offer a similar wildlife experience with the bonus of night drives, guided nature walks, off-road driving for close-up sightings and far fewer visitors.

    Bring your binoculars: the bird watching is fantastic in the Okavango Delta thanks to a mix of water and land habitats. Pel’s fishing-owl, white-backed night-heron and slaty egret are among the ‘mega-ticks.’

    Get active: an Okavango Delta safari offers the widest range of guided activities in Botswana – enjoy day and night game drives, guided nature walks, motor boat trips and canoe safaris.

    Always keep your camera handy: nearly all visitors to the Okavango Delta fly in to their accommodation on light aircraft from Maun, the Okavango Delta’s gateway town. Stunning views of the delta and bird’s eye game viewing begin the moment you take off.

    Wrap up in winter: warm clothes are a must from May to August – visitors on early morning game drives and late afternoon boat trips can expect temperatures not much above freezing.

    Be prepared for local visitors: accommodation in the Okavango Delta is unfenced and it’s not unusual for anything from elephants to monkeys to wander through the lodge grounds. Adhere to safety rules and remember that you are perfectly safe in your tent and lodge buildings but a guide or manager will accompany you to and from your tent if necessary.

  • Flights & Getting Around

    For flight schedules, fares and booking terms, check directly with the airline or your chosen travel agent.

    Maun International Airport: set at the edge of the Okavango Delta, Botswana’s busiest airport is served by flights from Johannesburg, Gaborone, Kasane (Chobe) and Windhoek. Less regular flights in peak season are available from Cape Town. You’ll transfer to light aircraft for the final leg into the delta and then usually a short 4X4 drive to the lodge.

    Okavango Delta travel is varied: game drives are conducted in open-sided 4X4s but visitors to these diverse wetlands can expect excursions by motor boat and canoe as well as on foot. Transfers between camps are usually via light aircraft and less often via boat.

Best Okavango Delta Safaris & Tours

The Okavango Delta is a hard-to-beat wildlife destination. A spectacular, remote wilderness, it’s where age-old battles between predator and prey play out before you.

Best Places to Stay in the Okavango Delta

Okavango Delta accommodation is located in both the permanent and seasonal wetlands. This leaves you with the choice between predominantly land-based lodges (focusing on game drives as well as water activities in high water season) or water-based camps that offer year-round water activities (canoeing, motor boating and fishing) but not always game drives.

Moreover, accommodation in the Okavango Delta is also split between lodges located in the Moremi Game Reserve (broadly speaking the central and eastern reaches of the Delta) and those in the Delta’s privately-run concessions, set in the west and south. Moremi is one of Africa’s greatest game-viewing destinations but visitors to the private reserves enjoy activities not permitted in Moremi such as night drives and off-road driving.

A further factor to consider is the changing seasons – the early winter floods, the ensuing dry months and the summer rains all add a different aspect to this extraordinary environment.

Costs

The delta sits at the higher end of safari pricing because the camps are small and the transfers are by air.

A private concession with night drives costs more than a simpler camp. Dry-season months, especially July to October, are the expensive ones.
