The Worlds Best Safari - Okavango


The Okavango Delta in Botswana is one of the largest inland waterways in the world and has an impressive mass and variety of wildlife. Rather than emptying into the sea, the remains of the Okavango River flows onto the vast sands of the Kalahari Desert. In addition to safaris by air or land-based vehicles, the breathtaking scenery of the Okavango can be experienced by boat or local makoro canoes.

"The Okavango is the ultimate destination for an African safari. A pristine wilderness of waterways, islands and grasslands, the Okavango draws great herds of migratory animals and predators to its fertile shores, making it the best big five African safari destination." (Okavango.info)

Been there, done that a couple of times.

Well, the Delta is beautiful and you are in for a once in a lifetime wildlife experience.

But is it the best place to see game? It's a stunning package, but you have a better chance of seeing the Big Five in parks like Kruger and Etosha.
