Travelers

Dawn meets you in Maun with a low hum of bush planes and the faint scent of wood smoke. The Okavango Delta waits beyond town, breathing in floodwater from distant Angolan rains and exhaling a lacework of channels. You slide into a mokoro as reeds whisper against the hull; a poler reads the current like a map, hippos grumble a warning farther off, and an African fish eagle cleaves the silence. On nearby islands, the ground feels springy and alive—fresh tracks etch stories into the sand, and the grass seems to part with intent as you walk.

Adventure Tips

Dress in neutral layers

Stick to earth tones and avoid white or bright colors; mornings are chilly and afternoons heat up, so layer light long sleeves and a fleece.

Hydrate like it’s part of the plan

Aim for 3 liters per day in the dry season; bring a reusable bottle and add electrolytes for long game-drive days.

Protect your optics and sensors

Dust and spray are constants—use a dry bag on the river and a microfiber cloth and blower for camera gear.

Give wildlife space

Remain seated in the vehicle, follow guide instructions, and never approach elephants or predators on foot.

History

Moremi Game Reserve was established in 1963 by the Batawana people, a community-led milestone in African conservation. The Okavango Delta became a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2014.

Conservation

Travel on established tracks, pack out all waste, and use refillable bottles to reduce plastic. Keep respectful distances so animals set the encounter’s terms, not the vehicle.
