Botswana – The Bush Experience

Early in the morning your journey through Botswana begins. Together with your tour group you leave Maun, and as soon as you drive into Moremi Game Reserve, the search for the wildlife living freely here begins. Moremi Game Reserve is certainly one of the best wildlife reserves in southern Africa, and spectacular wildlife sightings are almost guaranteed here. The next three days are spent on game drives in the morning and afternoon. During the hottest part of the day you relax at camp. To be able to explore another part of the area as well, you will pitch your camp at a different site on day 3. You spend two nights in the western part and one night in the eastern part of the game reserve. On private campsites you experience Botswana’s impressive nature. The nights in the middle of the wilderness in particular will stay in your memory for a long time.

Driving distance day 5: approx. 170 km; pure driving time approx. 5–6 hours

The journey continues north-east towards Chobe National Park. On the way to Chobe you cross the scenically varied dry areas of the Savuti section. With more than 40,000 elephants, Chobe National Park is certainly the park with the highest “elephant density” in Africa. The camp on day 4 is in the Savuti marsh area. For the following two nights you stay on private, unfenced campsites near the Chobe River.

After a last short game drive, you continue to Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe, on the edge of the mighty Victoria Falls. In the late afternoon you visit the thundering falls (optional). You spend the last night of the tour in a comfortable lodge in Victoria Falls. The next day, further activities such as white-water rafting or helicopter flights over the falls can be undertaken (optional).
