“THE ELEPHANT TRAIL”
ITINERARY FOR TEN DAY SAFARI IN BOTSWANA.

Day 1. Arrival in Maun and overnight in the Sedia Hotel

After your arrival at Maun Airport, you will be met by our representative and transferred to the hotel. DB

 Days 2 & 3 & 4. Xakanaxa - Moremi Game Reserve

We depart Maun and travel the 5 - 6-hour journey into the Moremi Game Reserve which is situated in the Okavango Delta. Here we will camp in a private campsite in the heart of the waterways of the Okavango Delta. One of our days we’ll take a boat ride on the main channels and lagoon systems of the northern reaches of the Okavango Delta. There is a great variety of birdlife along these channels, and mammals such as the elusive otter and majestic lechwe may be seen. If we are lucky, we may even see an elephant cooling off in the clear waters or catch a glimpse of the shy sitatunga. We usually spend most of the day out so we will pack a picnic lunch to be enjoyed in a shady spot in this picturesque part of Moremi. In the evening, we return to camp for warm shower and a hearty meal while listening to the sounds of the African bush at night.

Day 5 & 6. Khwai - Moremi Game Reserve 
 
After enjoying our early morning breakfast and packing our bags we start our journey to the Eastern most extremity of the Okavango Delta. The Khwai area is rich in habitat and wildlife. The animals are attracted to the narrow ribbon of water that provides for some spectacular wildlife viewing. This is an area where lion and leopard may be seen. There is a healthy population of plains game, including, kudu, impala, giraffe and zebra. 
Here we will spend our days on game drives and will have a chance to relax and catch up with our diaries during the siesta time in the afternoons.
 
Day 7 & 8 & 9. Savuti - Chobe National Park 
 
Today we have a 6 - 7-hour journey to Savuti- we will be travelling through wilderness area for the whole journey. This is a day that puts into perspective the sheer size of this wilderness area. Savuti lies in an ancient lakebed that is punctuated with small rocky hills (kopjes), some of which hold ancient San rock paintings. Here we explore the Savuti marsh and riverbed for the abundant wildlife of this timeless place, including its famous elephant and lion population. African Wild Dog is also regularly seen as well as a large variety of other mammals. Savuti is a favored area of wildlife photographers and filmmakers and many popular wildlife documentaries have been filmed here.
 
Day 10. Savuti - Maun 

After our last breakfast in camp, we will make our way to Maun by vehicle and will overnight in the Sedia Hotel.
 
Day 11. Sedia Hotel to Maun Airport 

After breakfast in the Hotel, we have a chance for some final curio shopping on our way to Maun Airport where we will catch our onward flights.
