4 Days | 3 Nights - Uncharted Expeditions Camp
Abandon thoughts of a traditional lodge or safari camp and try your hand at mobile camping in unreal style!
Botswana has more wildlife species than anywhere else on the continent and where better to witness all the animal action than in the iconic Okavango Delta. This is a private Botswana mobile camping safari, where you’ll sleep in our wonderfully-wild and super-stylish mobile camp, immersing yourself into the heart of the wilderness, spending one of your nights fly camping on an island.
You’ll boat up to herds of elephant, 500 strong, and explore remote islands on foot; travel across floodplains in a custom 4×4 in search of game; and spend afternoons watching the birds flit across the African skies.
Arrive at Kadizora Airstrip to meet your guide, and take a slow, meandering game drive to Expeditions camp which puts you in the heart of the northern Okavango Delta, in some of the most hidden and beautiful corners that many will never discover. A private bush experience, each Meru-style tent exudes an old world safari charm that is both comfortable and stylish, with Persian rugs, real beds and pure cotton sheets. The mess tent is replete with beautifully styled furniture, bone-handled silver cutlery, a small library, and a well-stocked drinks cabinet. The only concession to roughing it are the bucket showers – but even they are private and piping hot!
Spend the next few days exploring the watery wonderland and discovering its fascinating inhabitants. Have your binos at the ready for wildebeest, impala, zebra, wild dog and cheetah; learn a little of the diverse plant life in the reserve; explore the maze of channels on mokoros; or just relax, and let the wildlife come to you.
Either stay in camp, or choose to experience an unforgettable night fly-camping on a remote, lantern-lit island, just like the explorers of old. This island sleepout is only offered to guests during peak water season – generally between June and September depending on the floods. You’ll set off on an afternoon game drive activity combined with a mokoro transfer (or boat transfer if water levels allow), to arrive at your private camp on an island, deep in the Okavango Delta, just after sunset. You’ll sleep in a comfortable mosquito-net ‘tent’ relishing in the freedom of a night in the open, surrounded by nature at its very best.
After breakfast, it’s off to the lagoon’s edge for a boat safari in the waters of the Okavango. You’ll putt along the maze of lily-lined channels, picnic under the trees, and swim in the glassy lagoons. Camp tonight is on a private-lantern lit island, where it’s just you, your mosquito net, and a million stars overhead.
*Scenic Helicopter Flight Over the Delta
Add a little magic to your Delta experience with a helicopter flight over the waterways; panoramic delights, priceless memories and stunning photographic opportunities await.
Lace up your walking boots and head out on a walking safari around the island – a highlight has to be watching the elephant splashing in the shallows. Then, it’s back to the boat for a last drift through the papyrus before you head back to the mobile camp for your last night.
Take a trip to Tsodillo Hills and discover the ancient rock art hidden in the extraordinary landscape. Flights are usually done in the morning, and the trip takes approximately 5.5 hours in total from the Delta.
This safari starts and ends in Maun. Peak season for the Okavango Delta is between April and October. During these dry winter months, water from the Angolan highlands arrives and water levels in the Delta are high, offering the best conditions for mokoro and boat activities and exceptional game viewing opportunities as wildlife is drawn to the water from the surrounding dry areas.
