Day by Day Itinerary
Day 1 – 3: Khwai Arrival & Immersive Safari Experience
Upon your arrival at Maun International Airport, you will be warmly welcomed and transferred by a scenic helicopter flight to your lodge for a three-night stay.
Nestled along the Khwai River, Mogotlho Safari Lodge enjoys a prime location between Moremi Game Reserve and Chobe National Park. The elevated tented suites overlook the river, where hippos, elephants, and a variety of wildlife are frequently seen right from camp.
Over the next few days, you will explore the Khwai concession on guided game drives in search of elephants, lions, leopards, antelope, rich birdlife, and the rare African wild dog, for which this area is well known.
In between activities, relax on the main viewing deck, enjoy freshly prepared meals in the open air, and spend your evenings around the campfire listening to the sounds of the African wilderness.
- Accomodation: Mogotlho Safari Lodge – Khwai River area, between Moremi Game Reserve and Chobe National Park, Botswana
Day 4 – 5: Remote Wilderness Safari in Kazuma Forest Reserve
After breakfast, you will be transferred to the airstrip for your scheduled light aircraft flight to Kasane. On arrival, you will continue by road to your camp where you will stay for the next two nights.
Set within a private concession in the Kazuma Forest Reserve, Camp Kuzuma faces a vibrant waterhole that attracts elephants, giraffes, zebra, roan antelope, and other plains game throughout the day.
Your safari activities include morning and afternoon game drives through this quiet and less-visited region, where large herds migrate seasonally between Botswana and Zimbabwe. The private concession allows off-road driving and more exclusive wildlife encounters.
You may also take time to unwind on the deck, enjoy the spa, or watch elephants gathering at the waterhole during sunset — a truly memorable sight.
