Okavango Delta

The Okavango Delta is Botswana’s extraordinary nature and safari destination and one of the world’s largest inland deltas. Here, the Okavango River spreads across the dry Kalahari landscape without reaching the sea, creating a fascinating mosaic of channels, lagoons, islands, and seasonal floodplains. The annual flood arrives during Botswana’s dry season, transforming the landscape and sustaining an exceptional diversity of wildlife. Elephants, hippos, lions, leopards, and African wild dogs are among its most iconic inhabitants. Mokoro excursions, game drives, and scenic flights offer different perspectives on this unique wilderness. Inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2014, the delta is one of Africa’s most remarkable wetlands.
