Luxury Botswana safari
Three-lodge safari by air
This laidback yet luxurious safari visits three of the beautiful lodges run by high-end safari specialist and conservation company &Beyond, a close partner of WEXAS, and combines both land and water-based game viewing.
Enjoy 4x4 game drives and campfire dinners beneath the stars in famous Chobe National Park, go game viewing by mokoro in the Okavango Delta, and spot wildlife that ranges from hippos and elephants to lions, leopards and rare red lechwe antelopes, which are specially adapted to the life aquatic.
2 nights Savute Under Canvas • 2 nights Sandibe Okavango Safari Lodge • 2 nights Xudum Okavango Delta Lodge
Days 1-2: Chobe National Park
On arrival at Maun Airport, you’ll be transferred to a light aircraft and flown to Savute in Chobe National Park. The area is best known for the Savuti Channel, a deep clear waterway that’s a home for hippos and a draw for everything from plains game to predators. Spend two nights at &Beyond’s Savute Under Canvas in a spacious mobile tent with attached bathroom and outdoor shower. Activities include 4x4 game drives and camp fire dinners beneath the stars.
Stay: &Beyond Savute Under Canvas (BLD)
Days 3-4: Okavango Delta
This morning you’ll fly by light aircraft to &Beyond’s Sandibe Okavango Safari Lodge on a private concession within the Okavango Delta. The area is home to a wealth of wildlife, including the elegant red lechwe and shy sitatunga antelopes, lions and leopards. Hippos inhabit the deeper channels while elephants and giraffe graze nearby. Accommodation is in traditional African-inspired cottages and activities include game drives, bush walks and canoe trips.

Days 5-6: Okavango Delta
Fly to &Beyond’s Xudum Okavango Delta Lodge, surrounded by a maze of papyrus and reed beds. Accommodation is in split-level safari suites, each with a lofty rooftop hideout, a large bath, alfresco shower and a private plunge pool. Activities include water and land safaris, night safaris and guided walks. Scenic helicopter flights are available at an additional cost.

Day 7: Maun
After breakfast, transfer to the airstrip for your flight back to Maun and your connecting flight home. Alternatively, take a short flight to Livingstone in Zambia and add a stay at Victoria Falls to your holiday, one of the seven natural wonders of the world. Here we recommend The Royal Livingstone hotel which provides 5-star colonial luxury on the banks of the mighty Zambezi River, a short walk from the famous falls.
