Victoria Falls, Chobe and Moremi Safari Journey

Day 1 - Nsika Lodge

You will enjoy 2 game drive activities per day, with a 4x4 game drive in Chobe and a Chobe Riverfront safari experience. Game activities are scheduled at 3:00 pm and 6:30 am, and each lasts 2.5 hours.

Return to the lodge for dinner and an overnight stay.

Chobe National Park includes two incredible wildlife areas. The Chobe River is a great way to explore the riverfront by boat, especially in the late afternoon when big herds of elephants and buffalo come to drink. There are plenty of hippos and crocs in the river, and the birdlife is phenomenal, while Chobe Savuti is brilliant for predators.

Chobe National Park has an impressive wealth of animal life on the riverbanks in the dry months. Plains zebra, puku, and impala are very common, while lions are easily spotted.

Moremi is situated in the east of the Okavango Delta and is one of the largest reserves, covering more than 4,871 sq km of pristine wilderness.

The diverse ecosystem supports an incredibly wide spectrum of wildlife, ranging from large herds of buffalo, wildebeest, and zebra to the rare sitatunga and lechwe antelope, as well as lion, cheetah, and packs of wild dog in the open grasslands. The birdlife is prolific and includes many of the area's 550 bird species.

What to bring

  • 1 warm fleece or down jacket: Essential for freezing morning game drives.
  • 1 windproof jacket: Open safari vehicles get incredibly breezy.
  • 1 pair of sturdy trail shoes: Required for walking safaris on the islands.
  • 1 pair of sandals or flip-flops: Perfect for relaxing around camp or in the canoe.
  • Swimwear: Many luxury lodges have plunge pools to cool off midday.
  • Underwear and wool socks: Bring enough for a few days; most lodges offer daily laundry.
  • Wide-brimmed sun hat: Must have a chin strap so it does not blow off in the wind.
  • Polarized sunglasses: Essential to block glare radiating off the water channels.
  • High SPF sunscreen: Choose a reef-safe formula to protect the pristine water system.
  • Lip balm with SPF: The combination of wind and sun dries out lips quickly.
  • Waterproof dry bag: Protects your expensive electronics from river splashes.
  • Binoculars (8x42 or 10x42): Crucial for spotting birds and distant leopards.

Know before you go

  • Soft bags only: If your itinerary includes a light aircraft "puddle jumper" into the Delta, rigid hard-shell suitcases with wheels are strictly banned. You must use a completely soft-sided duffel bag that can be manually squeezed into the plane's tiny cargo pod.
  • Weight limits: The standard weight limit across bush operators (like Wilderness Air or Mack Air) is 15 kg (33 lbs) total, which must include your hand luggage and heavy camera gear.
  • The local currency: The official currency is the Botswana Pula (BWP).
  • Card vs. cash: Credit cards (Visa and Mastercard) are widely accepted in major supermarkets and luxury lodges in Maun, but they will not work in the bush.
