Dawn arrives as a cool, dry wind pushes across the mopane woodlands and the safari vehicle eases north out of Maun. Early light lays the floodplains of Moremi in low gold; reeds whisper and channels dare you to follow them deeper into the Okavango’s wild heart. Guides peel away from main tracks, dropping into hidden waterholes where elephants and hippos claim morning space.
