Day 5

Fly to the Okavango Delta

Fly to the Okavango Delta

A Chobe River Lodge staff member will transfer you to Kasane Airport to meet your light aircraft flight to Moremi Crossing. Whilst this journey is necessary, it's also incredibly scenic, so ensure you've charged your cameras.

Upon arrival at the airstrip, you'll be warmly greeted by staff from the lodge and transferred by boat to the camp. Stay at Moremi Crossing for two nights on an all-inclusive basis.

Moremi Crossing is located on an Island called Ntswi near the most southern part of Chief’s Island. As you fly over the Delta, you can see the intricate twisting and turning of the waterways and the ever-changing colours where dry land meets Delta. The channels around Moremi Crossing offer far-reaching vistas of the Moremi floodplain, grasslands and marginal woodlands interspersed with Mokolwane Palm Islands.

Enjoy your evening at Moremi Crossing in this spectacular location.

Day 6

Water-Based Safari and Walking from Moremi Crossing

Water-Based Safari and Walking from Moremi Crossing

As Moremi Crossing is a water based camp, guests arrive either by mokoro or boat from the airstrip and the area hosts a wide variety of animal and bird species.

Moremi Crossing offers different activities in the form of mokoro trips, game and bird walks, sunset motorboat cruises and island camping (island camping must be booked in advance). All these activities give the guests a chance to experience the Okavango Delta and its wildlife from a very different, slower and closer perspective. Water activities are water level dependent. When water levels are low, morning and afternoon game drives with sundowner drinks will be offered in a private concession (limited to one game drive activity per night’s stay).
