On the eastern fringe of the Delta lies the Moremi Game Reserve, famous for its beauty and intensity of wildlife, including herds of elephant, buffalo, giraffe and antelope. Another most unusual area is the Linyanti Region, where in the dry season, you can see hundreds of buffalo with a pride of lion in pursuit.For adventure tours, accommodation, car hire, guided tours and safaris in Botswana and South Africa - in fact, for all your Africa Travel, Trust Thompsons.

Day 3: Okavango Delta / Moremi or Linyanti  
Transfer by light aircraft to your camp in the Moremi or Linyanti Region. Moremi is one of the leading wildlife areas and is mostly described as one of the most beautirul wildlfe reserves in Africa. Boasting dense concentrations of game at any time of the year, the game reserve supports a wide range of habitats. On the southern banks of the Linyanti River is the private Linyanti Wildlife Reserve. Here the marsh subsides into lagoons and steadily flowing rivers with riverine forests of jackalberry and sausage trees leading to open grasslands, and dry inland wooded areas.

Day 4: Moremi or Linyanti  
Your day is spent game viewing in open safari vehicles. The area is highly populated with animals, particularly in the dry winter months when elephants concentrate in enormous numbers at the rivers and waterholes. The particularly beautiful sable and roan antelopes are found here and red lechwe and the aquatic sitatunga antelope inhabit the wetlands. The main predators are lion, leopard, cheetah, wild dog and hyena.

    For the best game viewing experience it is recommended that visitors spend some time at a 'water' camp and some time at a 'land' camp. The focus at the water camps is on traditional Mokoro canoe safaris, whilst at the land camps the majority of activities are conducted in open, safari vehicles. Our recommendation is a total of 4 nights on safari with 2 nights at your choice of camp in each of these unique areas. We also offer combination camps where land and water based activities are available should you be short of time.
