Fly-in Luxury Safari in Botswana

Your Luxury Safari in Botswana continues as you depart Ghoha Hills and board your light aircraft flight to Moremi Game Reserve – the oldest protected section of the Okavango Delta. On arrival, you will be met by a lodge representative who will accompany you to Khwai River Lodge, a Belmond Safari. Located deep in Botswana’s wilderness, this luxury tented bush camp sits on the edge of a forest and overlooks the Khwai River and floodplains of the Delta. Explore this predator-rich haven on morning and afternoon game drives alongside locally trained naturalist guides before returning to the lodge where you can while away your afternoon from the comfort of the swimming pool. In the evenings, dinner is followed by a unique night drive and stargazing. A whole experience on its own, you will head out into the wilderness to seek out the nocturnal creatures of the bush. A spotlight is attached to the safari vehicle and an animal-friendly red filter light is used to spot the eyes of shy wildlife that are hiding in the dark.

After a morning game drive and refreshing breakfast, your guide will meet you and transfer you to the local airstrip for your charter flight to the Okavango Delta. The last three nights of your trip will be spent in the heart of the Okavango Delta staying in the utmost luxury at Sanctuary Baines’ Camp. The intimate camp is built on raised platforms high above the Boro River. During your stay, you can enjoy expertly guided day and night game drives and walking safaris. Alternatively, you can explore the Delta’s waterways on seasonal mokoro safaris and motorised boat excursions to witness wildlife grazing on banks of the winding channels. In the evening, return to the lodge for a spectacular dining experience followed by a bubble bath on your private deck overlooking the river. A highlight of your stay will be wheeling your four-poster bed onto your private deck for the chance to sleep under the stars in Botswana’s peaceful wilderness. Another highlight of your stay at Baines’ Camp is a scenic helicopter flight designed to showcase the permanent delta.
