Predators Galore - Okavango Detla & Mababe Depression
Experience Highlights
Glide through the Okavango’s glassy channels, where reed-covered islands hide elephants and mokoro safaris let you drift quietly through the heart of the Delta. Then head east to the Mababe Depression, once a vast lake and now wide floodplains teeming with wildlife. Buffalo and zebra roam in great herds, lions and wild dogs follow, and every game drive feels like a front-row seat to Africa’s wildest show.

Day- Wise Itinerary
Day 1 - 4 | Okavango Delta
Your experience begins with a light aircraft flight over the Delta, giving you a bird’s-eye view of its sparkling channels. On arrival, you step straight into Africa’s wild theatre: glide through still lagoons on a mokoro, explore golden floodplains on game drives, and take quiet walks where every track tells a story. As elephants wade at sunset and wild dogs roam the plains, each day reveals a new side of the Okavango’s untamed beauty.
Day 5 - 7 | Mababe Depression
A short flight east takes you to the Mababe Depression, once a vast lake and now a wide grassland, one of Botswana’s hidden treasures. Herds of buffalo and zebra stretch as far as the eye can see, followed by lions, cheetahs, and hyenas. Game drives bring the thrill of close encounters with wildlife, while evenings glow under a star-filled sky, the fire crackling as the sounds of Africa drift through the night.

Locations
Okavango Delta
Okavango Delta
The intricate channels and ever-changing islands of the Delta are home to a variety of species, from elephants and hippos to water-adapted lions and cheetahs. Over 400 bird species, including rare ones such as the Malachite Kingfisher, herons, and African fish eagles, grace its skies, making it a haven for birdwatchers.
Mababe
Mababe
The Mababe Depression is a vast, flat basin in northern Botswana, lying between the Okavango Delta and Chobe National Park. Once part of the ancient Lake Makgadikgadi, it now forms a seasonal floodplain that attracts large concentrations of wildlife. In the dry months, it becomes a dusty grassland; during the rains, it transforms into a shallow wetland, drawing elephants, buffalo, and predators in high numbers. Its open terrain and ecological richness make it a critical part of Botswana’s northern wilderness.
