Kasane to Nata – Khwai Conservation Area, Botswana
The Chobe River is left behind as we depart, and we head south into the Kalahari Desert. The ‘bushveld’ changes as you approach Nata, where we will spend the night close to Botswana’s famous salt pans. In the afternoon, after arriving in Nata, we will enjoy a guided excursion to the Nata pans, which feature thousands of waterbirds, including pelicans and flamingos (birds that migrate seasonally).
Before we depart camp today, please pack/gather your personal belongings which you may need, as you will be separated from your truck for the next 2 nights. Take only what you need for the next two nights.
Our journey today takes us toward the Okavango Delta. As soon as you arrive in Maun, you will be able to take an optional scenic flight over the Delta (weather and time permitting). Upon returning from Maun, you will be picked up by a 4×4 safari vehicle and transported to the Khwai Conservation area. As our guide prepares us for our afternoon mokoro excursion into the Okavango Delta, he will provide us with a brief overview of what to expect.
