Okavango Delta holidays

Destination information

Often described as 'the river that never finds the sea', the Okavango Delta is Africa's largest and most beautiful oasis. Here, the Kalahari Desert thirst is quenched in a blue/green wilderness of life-giving water, strewn with emerald reed beds and towering trees. This incredible natural wonder is home to an almost unparalleled diversity of animal and bird life. Scattered amongst the maze of lagoons, channels and islands are wallowing hippos, swamp antelopes and crocodiles basking on the sands, while a profusion of wetland birds enjoy the abundance of fish and other small creatures that the Delta supports.

One of the highlights of your stay here is often the transfer flight between accommodations, which provides visitors with astonishing aerial views of this incredible landscape.

A number of lodges and camps have been established in and around this watery wilderness, offering everything from sumptuous lodge accommodation to luxury tented camps, where visitors can immerse themselves in the sights and sounds of Africa at its best.
