Dumela rra! Welcome to Botswana.
On day 1 begin your trip with an exciting light aircraft flight (approx. 45 minutes) from Maun to the camp, a great opportunity to get an aerial view of the huge network of waterways which makes up the Okavango Delta. On arrival at the Oddballs Camp in the heart of the delta you are met at the airstrip and given a warm welcome to the island.
Activities are conducted by your own professional guide, a man born and bred in this wonderful swamp. He has a mokoro (dugout canoe) in which he can take you to nearby islands. On these little islets, it is possible to track game on foot and you'll get incredible views of the spectacular landscape that is the Okavango. It might also be possible to visit his village to meet elders and perhaps even his family.
Tonight, enjoy dinner and a good night's rest at Oddballs.
Meals included: Dinner
Overnight: Oddballs
Your accommodation for the next three nights is in dome tents, fully equipped, with mattresses, linen, pillows and towels and set on elevated wooden decks shaded by reed shelters. Beautiful outdoor showers and ablutions are shared.
Days 2-3 Okavango Delta:On days 2 and 3 spend more time exploring the channels of the Okavango in the mokoro and on foot. At 15,000sq km the Okavango is the largest inland delta in the world. The waterways are partially covered in pretty lily pads, fringed by papyrus plants and form a giant watering hole for many animals including elephants, hippos, lions and antelopes. Look out for these species as well as the many birds that inhabit this area.
When you aren't navigating the waterways and wandering around on the delta's many islands you'll return to Oddballs for long lunches, delicious dinners and relaxing sundowners.
Meals included: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner
