A river which fails to meet the sea
Overall rating
5/5

The Okabango Delta, called the jewel of Kalahari in Africa, changes the shape of the waterway and plants grow to block it. Hippos living in lakes and swamps here can pass through the blocked waterways or expand their channels.

The swamps in the Okabang Lake grow very well, thanks to the rivers and the nutrients in them. As a natural environment, a large number of animals and birds gather here and breed in a swamp in the middle of a dry terrain. Large animals such as hippos and elephants are easy to see and have various birds.

A unique habitat

Really good boat trips, and meeting a bull Elephant in must, while in Mokoro dugout canoe was very exciting. Ranger guides on land less interesting. Excellent accommodation at Nguma lodge, in perfect setting. However a torrential downpour cancelled a boat trip and dampened our enthusiasm.

It is very good but if I am evaluating it right after Chobe I have to give 5 stars to Chobe and 4 to okavango.

Stunning, not many people and lots of animals that aren't accustomed to people.

Knowing that there was little water in the Delta, we thoroughly enjoyed our experience and saw more than we anticipated

This was our first trip to the Okavango and we were really excited…we saw a variety of bird life up really close. We also saw hippos, elephant, crocodiles and Red Lechwe.
It was a wonderful day
