7 DAY OKAVANGO EXPEDITION - SOUTH

This short and exciting tour begins in historical Livingstone, home to the Victoria Falls and many adventure sports, such as the world famous Zambezi White Water Rafting. The Chobe National Park in Botswana is not only home to the many elephants of this area, but a multitude of other wild animals as well, viewing the game from a boat is a unique and relaxing way to experience this National Park. The highlight of the trip is of course the Okavango Delta. We spend a few days doing Mokoro (traditional dug out canoes) rides through the winding channels and Nature Walks in this beautiful area. Then it's off through southern Botswana where South Africa and Johannesburg await.

TOUR COST: R3950 + Local Payment: US$395 + SINGLE SUPP (IF APPLICABLE) R390
