Experiences

Walking Safaris

Awaken your senses and discover all that the bush has to offer when taking part in a walking safaris. Guided walking safaris are for guests 16 years and older and are led by our qualified and passionate walking guides who share their knowledge and love of the bush.

With the dry vegetation between May and October, walking safaris are a fantastic and exciting way to experience the area. Since your safety is our first priority, walking safaris are usually conducted when the bush is not too thick and our guides are armed at all times.

Mokoro excursions

No activity is more synonymous with the Okavango Delta than a mokoro trip. Glide silently along the hippo highways and elephant byways of the ancient Khwai River, historically the only form of transport for the River Bushmen. Explore this unique inland delta deserving of its World Heritage Site status. Traditionally, fashioned out of a single tree trunk today, mokoro or dugout canoes are made of fiberglass as a measure to preserve Botswana’s hardwood forests.

Learn about the fascinating ecology from our river guides, who navigate your journey through the tranquil, watery wilderness. 

Game Drives

Daily game drives are offered at Khwai Lediba, morning, afternoon, and evening game drives.

Led by one of our experienced guides, you’ll see magnificent wildlife indigenous to the area. Your guide will show you the hidden spots best for game viewing and give you insider’s knowledge.
