Okavango kayaking expedition

Pretty much every Okavango tour itinerary will include a paddle on a traditional mokoro canoe. For something very different, set out on a multi-day, camp-to-camp kayaking expedition through the Delta. Paddle the gentle water spotting the planet's greatest wildlife and camp each night under the stars. Truly unique.

Safari in Botswana

Anthony Ham

Of all the places I’ve been on safari in Africa, I think Botswana tops the list. There is so much to enjoy and, unlike in bigger safari destinations, in Botswana you’ll see a lot more wildlife than other travellers.

Safari in the Okavango Delta

Anthony Ham

Seen from above, the Okavango appears like a claw, a vast body of water fanning out across, and clutching at, the Kalahari in a vain search for the sea. Every year, rain that fell months ago in the Angolan Highlands filters down through the narrow Okavango Panhandle, then spreads out across the world’s largest inland delta.
