Upon arrival at Johannesburg's Oliver Tambo International Airport(international flight not included), collect your luggage and make your way by shuttle to your airport hotel.

Today you take the shuttle back to Johannesburg Airport in time for your flight to Maun. On arrival at Maun Airport you will be met by a representative who will introduce you to your pilot and assist you onto your light aircraft for a departure out of Maun.

Your first stop is Nxai Pan - Nxai Pan National Park lies just north of the Maun-Nata road and adjoins Makgadikgadi Pans National Park on its northern border. The Camp is situated in the tree line with 8 purpose built desert tents. All of the 8 tents have private viewing decks, inside and outside showers and fans. The main area has a swimming pool, curio shop and library. This afternoon enjoy your first game activity.

Nxai pan is well known for its huge springbok population and once the rains have started, gemsbok, elephant and zebras migrate to the region. At this time zebra's come in their thousands to drop their young at Nxai Pan. Extraordinarily large hers of giraffe's can be seen with up to 30 in a group.

These large herds of zebras, springbok, and wildebeest attract many predators - lion, cheetah, jackal and both spotted and the elusive brown hyena, as well as the endangered wild dog and the secretive leopard.

Two activities are included today, one in the early morning and one in the late afternoon. Activities you can do whilst here include a visit to Baines Baobab's, game drive, nature walks and star gazing.

After a game activity and breakfast you will be transferred to the airstrip to continue on your journey to Kwando Kwara Camp situated in the Okavango Delta.

Time at Kwara will reveal why the Delta, with all its remarkable plant, bird and animal life, is unique in the world.

You will have an afternoon game drive.

Enjoy game viewing activities as offered by the camp. The water experience, either fishing, on a mekoro or exploring the channels and rivers by boat, is spectacular. Kwara also offers game drives both off road and at night in its own private traverse area.

The exclusive traverse is a feature of the Kwando Safaris experience - while Kwara Camp adjoins the Moremi Game Reserve, you only have to share your game experience with other Kwara guests.

After a morning game drive fly by light charter aircraft to Kwando Lagoon Camp.

Lagoon is perched on the banks of the wild Kwando River, overlooking the Mudumu National Park in the Namibian Caprivi Strip. The camp is nestled beneath towering ebony and marula trees and accommodates up to 16 guests in eight traditionally styled 'tents.' The heavily forested site is home to a wide variety of birds and mammals, while elephant and hippo are normally visible from the camp. The stunning views and close proximity of wildlife all contribute to the pervading sense of calm at Lagoon.

Wildlife here is excellent.
Seasonally large herds of elephant drink at the river bank near to the camp in full view of the main deck, while playful spotted - necked otters are commonly seen performing in the water.

Lagoon has a well-earned reputation for big game and large herds of elephant and buffalo, especially in the winter months, when herds of up to a thousand are not uncommon. This vast concentration of game attracts the attention of large predators. The Lagoon wild dog pack regularly den close to the camp and the excellent viewing opportunities have led to Lagoon's reputation as the place to see wild dog in Botswana.

Make the most of your last morning as you take in all the sights and sounds on your final game activity of this trip.

Then fly by light charter aircraft to Maun for your scheduled flight to Johannesburg.

From here either connect to your homebound international flight or to your ongoing arrangements.
