Game Viewing Okavango Delta, Gomoti Plains

Game Viewing Okavango Delta, Gomoti Plains

The Okavango Delta is a rare inland water system, named a UNESCO World Heritage Site and known as “the river that never meets the sea”. This seasonal network of waterways, channels and islands shrinks and grows each year, providing a rich habitat to a plethora of birds, insects and animal species.

During the next two days, you will have the opportunity to explore all that and more through the many activities offered at Gomoti Plains. Gomoti is alive with diversity and with your game drives you will most likely be able to spot big plains game, wild dog dens, large prides of lions, big herds of buffalo and maybe even a leopard or cheetah. The water-based game activity by mokoro or motorized boat will make yet another totally different world available to you—you will see creatures and details up close that you would otherwise miss from the land.
