This is a 7 night 8 days safari package to Botswana that covers Okavango delta and the arid part of Botswana, and the lesser visited Central Kalahari National Park. You will get to visit two of the most diverse parks on the continent. Okavango Delta is a wetland with lush green landscape provides for the most exhilarating wildlife experiences; whereas Central Kalahari National Park is an arid desert thriving with wildlife.

Okavango Delta is one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the world, Okavango Delta is a huge inland delta formed when the Okavango River reaches a tectonic trough in the Kalahari. It is an oasis in the middle of the Kalahari Desert. Also a World Heritage Site, it is a vast area of virtually untouched freshwater wetland. The delta supports an abundance of wildlife within a setting of dazzling natural beauty. Odd climatic conditions and lush environment makes the Okavango delta a fantastic safari destination.

Central Kalahari Game Reserve is the second largest game reserve, most of which is quite remote and inaccessible. Not many visitors visit this huge reserve; it gives you an impression of unending space, like having the whole reserve to yourself. The Bushmen, or San, have inhabited the lands for thousands of years since they roamed the area as nomadic hunters. The reserve makes up to be one of the best places for wildlife viewing.
