Africa's best authentic tailor-made safaris

Okavango Delta Luxury Safari

With beautiful lakes, lush woodland, wide savannahs, great fauna, and over 400 bird species, the Okavango Delta is a 360° panoramic Garden of Eden.

All of the accommodations on an Okavango Delta Luxury Safari are intimate and personal; all you have to do is relax and go with the flow. Botswana is the gold standard in Southern Africa for low-density, low-impact tourism, and luxury hotels which are among the greatest in the world.

In every part of the Okavango Delta, there are fantastic luxury tented camps and lodges, many of which are so sophisticated and wonderfully crafted that it’s difficult to comprehend how they were built at all.

Situated in some of the Okavango Delta’s most remote, secluded regions they often seem to grow organically, directly from the earth.

Many Okavango Delta luxury lodges employ lumber and other natural materials to blend in as much as possible, and many adopt ecological construction and management approaches.

You may gaze out into broad, open, game-rich grasslands or perch high on stilts over an endless, lapping lagoon, depending on the luxury Okavango Delta lodge and the time of year.

What to expect on a Luxury Okavango Delta Safari

Every aspect of a luxury Okavango Delta safari is spectacular in its own right. From the moment you land over the beautiful, elephant-dotted floodplain, to the luxury lodge’s magnificent tented accommodations, the calm mokoro journeys, and the meals, everything is perfect.

Days are spent touring the Okavango Delta, which is commonly done by Mokoro rides, which adds a unique twist. On your luxury safari, the lodges come alive at night with the soothing light of glowing lanterns for an evening of great dining under the African stars. Okavango Delta luxury lodges are famed for their outstanding service, with private guides and tailor-made activities as standard more suited to wildlife viewing.

Travel tips for a luxury Okavango Delta Safari

The majority of Okavango’s luxury safari camps are small and intimate, which means that space is limited and that the most popular sites fill up quickly.

If you plan on visiting the Okavango Delta during peak season (June to October), book at least a year ahead of time.

If you’re undecided about where to spend your Okavango Delta luxury safari, consider splitting your stay between two camps – perhaps three or four days near deep water for motorboat and mokoro tours, and another few days in a dry location for game drives.
