Home/Tours/Desert to Delta: 10-Day Botswana Adventure
About This Tour
A nine-night journey that pairs the stark beauty of the Central Kalahari with the lush waterways of the Okavango Delta, flying between three camps for game drives, a San Bushmen walking tour, boat cruises, and mokoro excursions. This itinerary is entirely within Botswana — from the Central Kalahari Game Reserve to the Okavango Delta and back to Maun, no border crossings are involved. An optional add-on flight to Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe can be booked separately, but it is not part of the core itinerary.
