This exciting journey is offered twice during Botswana’s summer in late November through late December for a six night/seven day trip. Each departure requires a minimum of two people with a maximum of seven for an intimate party of travelers. The adventure begins and ends in Maun. It starts with an enthralling overland journey to the Santawani Concession and includes game drives to see the wildlife on the abundant plains of the south-eastern Okavango. A short flight over the scenic expanse of the region transports guests to the plentiful channels and waterways of the heart of the Delta and a Classic Wilderness Safaris camp.

Beginning in Maun and then heads to the Gomoti Tented Camp in the Santawani Concession. The journey passes through several small villages and areas of plentiful wildlife. Days one through three will be spent at the luxury tented camp with activities focus around day and night game drives and nature walks. After breakfast, the journey continues with a flight in a light aircraft to Xigera with fantastic aerial views of the Okavango below. Days four through seven will be spent at Xigera exploring the concession via boat, mokoro (a traditional canoe paddled with long poles), game drives, and nature walks. Animal sightings in the concession include the water-loving red lechwe, spotted-necked otter, elephant, and tsessebe along with the elusive sitatunga. Some of the predators living in the region are the leopard and spotted hyena.
