Description

The tour usually starts with a hotel pickup around 7:30 AM. Followed by a 1-2hour transfer to the Okavango Delta NG32 Concession. You will be allocated a guide/poler who will take you on an unforgettable journey through the channels of the Okavango. Born and raised in the Okavango Delta, our polers and guides show you their home which they are very passionate and knowledgeable about. We support the local community in the Okavango Delta. The experienced polers take you on a journey through the delta channels. Enjoy the peace of the delta in a Mokoro. At lunchtime, you stop for a picnic meal on one of the islands before your guide takes you on a nature walk where we hope to see more animals. Feel the peace and tranquility of the Okavango surrounded by hippos and serenaded by the abundant bird life, before heading back to Maun. If you are all about seeing as many animals as possible, then this daytrip is NOT for you. Although we usually see a few animals, the main focus of the tour is to show you the nature and landscape of the delta watersystem. This tranquil and peaceful excursion is a break to the usually hectic safari days. In a canoe and on a walk you don't cover a wide area and you travel much slower. Therefore animal sightings are much less frequent and you will not see predators. We often see hippos, impala, elephants etc. And sometimes giraffe, zebra, etc. But in the wild nothing is guaranteed and sometimes we see nothing. If you are looking for a tour that shows you lions, leopards and other big game, then you should look into a motorized excursion. But if you are looking for a relaxed and authentic way to experience what the Okavango Delta is about and if you want to be guided by local people that live in the Delta and show you their home, then this is the right tour for you.
