Overview

If you truly want to experience Africa at its wildest, there’s no better way to do it than with an Okavango Delta mokoro camping trip. Take to the water on your mokoro, with all camping gear and your experienced guide or “poler” and experience an authentic African adventure that takes you deep into the heart of the Okavango Delta, where you’ll set up camp and explore the wilderness on foot and on the mokoro.

A mokoro is a traditional canoe-like vessel commonly used in the Okavango Delta as a popular mode of transport. Originally, mokoros were handcrafted from large tree trunks. However, mokoros are now made from environmentally friendly fiberglass.

A chef accompanies each camping party to prepare fresh and delicious meals. Meals are served at a table with chairs or around a campfire, under the starry African sky.

Your guide will pick you up from Maun International Airport or Maun based accommodation. You'll then be escorted to a game viewing vehicle for a one hour drive to the mokoro station in Morutsa, on the edge of the Okavango Delta where you'll meet your concession guides. The magical and world famous Okavango Delta covers between 6,000 and 15,000 square kilometers of the Kalahari Desert in northern Botswana and is fed by the Okavango River which flows from the Angolan highlands across the Caprivi Strip in Namibia and into the Kalahari Desert. It is characterized by a complex network of channels, lagoons, and islands, which are home to an incredible and diverse array of wildlife along with a wonderful variety of bird species. The area is particularly renowned for its population of African Wild Dogs, which are among the most endangered wildlife species in the world.

Not only is this one of Africa’s most fascinating and captivating regions to discover, it is also one of the most unique ecosystems, as well as one of the world’s premier wilderness areas and largest inland deltas in the world. The delta is a UNESCO World Heritage Site as well as one of the Seven Natural Wonders of Africa. After meeting your concession guides, you'll board a mokoro and your guide or “poler” will use a long pole called a "nkashi" to push along the bottom of the waterway to propel the vessel forward, giving you the freedom to absorb the diversity of the delta’s wildlife species from the comfort of your seat. You’ll get great angles and vantage points for amazing photographs as they can silently approach the wildlife and birdlife without disturbing the creatures. Guides that command mokoro are highly knowledgeable about the environment and as such these trips are considered safe and enjoyable.

  • 1h
After you’ve set up camp, take your adventure to the next level as you go on a guided bush walk on one of the islands within the Okavango Delta. This is one of the rare chances in Africa to get out of the safety of your vehicle and walk with the wild animals. As you explore the islands on foot, you’ll be amazed by the sheer abundance of wildlife that you’ll encounter along the way. In addition to spotting Elephants and antelope, keep your eyes peeled for Hippos, Crocodiles, and colourful bird species like the African Fish Eagle and Malachite Kingfisher.

You’ll wake up early, before sunrise, to the smell of coffee brewing on the fire. For those who want to stretch their legs after a cup of coffee or tea, there is the chance to go out for another bush walk before enjoying a cooked breakfast. After this, it will be time to pack up, get back on board your mokoro and make your way towards the mokoro station. Your transfer vehicle will be waiting to drive you back to Maun, arriving at midday in time to catch your flight to your next destination.
