About OkavangoSafaris.com

An independent guide to one of the world’s great wildernesses, written for people planning their first — or next — Botswana safari.

OkavangoSafaris.com exists because planning a delta safari is confusing: fly-in camps, mobile safaris, flood seasons, luggage limits and prices that range from €50 to €5,000. It is an independent travel guide to the Okavango Delta, Moremi, Khwai, Chobe, Victoria Falls and the Kalahari — written to be genuinely useful before you go and while you are there.

What we cover

  • How to get to the delta through Maun and Kasane, with real journey times and practical details.
  • Which tours and safaris are worth booking, ranked honestly and updated as ratings change.
  • What to see beyond the delta — Moremi, Khwai, Chobe, Victoria Falls, the salt pans and the Central Kalahari.
  • Where to sleep, from Maun lodges to fly-in camps.
  • When to come, and what each month is like on the ground.

How we research

Prices, journey times and seasonal patterns are checked against operators, park authorities and booking platforms, and reviewed regularly. Tour ratings and review counts come directly from GetYourGuide. Where a figure moves — park fees, exchange rates, camp prices — we give a range and say so, rather than pretend to a precision that does not exist.

Where we express an opinion, it is an opinion. We tell you when a day trip only scratches the surface, when a new listing has no reviews yet and when the cheaper option is the better one.

How the site is funded

We are a GetYourGuide affiliate partner and a Trip.com partner. If you book a tour or a room through a link on this site, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. That is the only way this guide is funded — there is no advertising, no sponsored placements and no paid inclusion in any ranking. Read the full affiliate disclosure.

Corrections

Prices change, camps change hands, roads flood. If something here is out of date or wrong, please tell us — we would rather fix it than defend it. Write to us via the contact page.
