Camping in the Okavango Delta is not limited to 1 night 2 days, Guests can request any number of days they seek to enjoy the Okavango Delta. But one has to note that the only activities that are available to be done are guided walking safari, mokoro rides and village tours depending on the village station used at the time. To spend more time in the Okavango Delta one will have to be a guest purely seeking peace, silence and tranquility while in the presence of roaming wild animals, loud bird melodies while only doing mostly walks, mokoro rides and spending most of the day in camp reading, writing etc.
Guests have an optional activity of doing a scenic flight or Helicopter ride over the Okavango Delta before or after the tour starts.
The tour can be any number of nights/days the guests request, but they are limited activities in a mokoro tour because one will be around water in a wildlife island. More days then 3 days will mean a repeat of the same activities of mokoro ride and walking safari that can be covered in just one day. More days are best for guests that want to do research or want to have more peaceful days in silence in the wild to read or write in the company of roaming wildlife and bird songs.
