Day 1-3: Explore the Okavango Delta.
Xugana Island Lodge is located on a private concession and takes full use of this spectacular location. An wide terrace and al fresco eating area overlook the huge, pristine body of water known as the Okavango Delta.
The open-sided thatched buildings that house the lounge, bar, and dining spaces are set back under the shade of ebony and African mangosteen trees. The swimming pool, nestled in the mature gardens in the island’s centre, is an ideal location to unwind.
Only sixteen guests are accommodated in the lodge’s spacious, elevated, reed and thatch lagoon-facing cabins. It features en-suite bathrooms and private observation terraces strategically positioned on the island’s shady rim.
The resort is located in a private concession and offers a variety of activities, allowing you to enjoy a genuine Okavango Delta safari. All activities are led by expert guides with extensive experience. Extra charges apply for mokoro, motorboats, game drives, fishing, bird viewing, and optional helicopter rides.
Day 4-6: Experience the Moremi Game Reserve.
Camp Xakanaxa is located in the centre of the Moremi Game Reserve, on the banks of the Khwai River on the Xakanaxa Lagoon. As a result, it is one of the few safari lodges that provides visitors with a true year-round Okavango Delta land and water safari experience.
The surrounding old riverine woods, open grasslands, serpentine channels, and seasonal floodplains provide a diverse environment for excellent wildlife and plants. The camp is one of only a handful that offers year-round land and water game watching in open 4×4 safari vehicles or powerboats.
Elephants, buffalo, hyenas, giraffes, hippopotamuses, wildebeest, kudu, lechwe, lions, and leopards, among many others, may be seen often because to the rich environment. Birding is magnificent, especially during the nesting season in the spring and summer.
A calm and cheerful atmosphere, along with customised and attentive care, creates a sense of belonging in camp.
Day 7-9: Explore Savuti and Chobe National Park.
For thousands of years, the meandering rivers of the Savuti Channel have poured life into the western portion of Chobe National Park, stretching from the Linyanti River all the way to Savuti Marsh. For many years, local residents, geologists, and others have been perplexed by this fickle and unpredictable waterway, which has a fascinating history of flooding and drying up irrespective of excellent rainy seasons and flood levels elsewhere.
Activities revolve around animal drives in open 4×4 safari vehicles in the Savuti area. Many tours include a visit to the Savuti Marsh, where you can witness the historic presence of the Savuti Channel against a backdrop of abundant wildlife.
Savuti Safari Lodge offers just twenty-four visitors in eleven thatched chalets made of local lumber and one family suite with two double beds, ensuring a quiet and peaceful setting.
Day 10: Transfer Back to Maun and Departure.
On your last morning in Savuti, you can participate in an activity before heading to the airfield for your transfer to Maun and subsequent flight home. End of Safari.
