(All meals) Day 3/4: OKAVANGO DELTA AREA OF MOREMI We set up our bushcamp in a remote area and explore the delta by mokoro or boat (subject to the water level of the delta). The birdlife is prolific and we take time to simply appreciate the remoteness and serenity of the Okavango. (All meals) Day 5/6: MOREMI WILDLIFE RESERVE Moremi Wildlife Reserve, created in 1968 by the Tawana tribe, is considered by many travellers to be the finest game park in southern Africa. The reserve is situated in the northern corner of the Okavango Delta.

We spend our time exploring the reserve in our open 4x4 safari vehicle.
