Day 5

Moremi and mokoro excursion

Moremi and mokoro excursion

An early wake-up call invites you to enjoy a cup of coffee or tea and rusks at the main camp area overlooking pure wilderness. We depart on our early-morning game drive and should return to camp at about 10h30 to enjoy a sumptuous breakfast. After breakfast, take time out to read a book, siesta, or simply take in the majestic vistas and connect to nature.

A mokoro excursion during the afternoon awaits you (subject to the water levels). We leave the camp at 15h00 and meander and float smoothly on a mokoro (dug-out trunk without an engine). We paddle into the magical waterways of Khwai, enjoying the amazingly colorful and melodious sounds of birds with a rich aquatic world for about two hours. We then return to the camp.
