3 Extraordinary Trips We Can’t Stop Talking About
EXCEPTIONAL FOR REFERENCES IN OKAVANGO Delta
For many people, hunting is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. For an introductory trip — punctuated by incredible hospitality and ravishing scenery — Botswana’s Okavango Plain is where you want to be. The terrain varies drastically from one end of the delta to the other; it makes sense to spend a stay through two or three camps to soak up the majesty. Wilderness Safaris operates several beautifully furnished, strategically located camps: the classic king pool in Linyanti and the cool, modern Qorokwe near Moremi are two favorites.

Take a helicopter ride for panoramic views of rivers filled with buffalo, crocodiles, and herds of elephants and zebras. Sunday (it’s the hunt for evening cocktails) happens on the hood of a Land Cruiser before heading back to the lodge for dinner, storytelling, and closing eyes before the next adventure.
