BOTSWANA ADVENTURE
CRYSTAL CLEAR WATERWAYS AND STUNNING SAFARI VIEWS
SAFARI OVERVIEW
Every year, during the green season, Botswana’s zebra migration takes place between the Okavango Delta and Makgadikgadi Pans. This migration is the second-largest zebra migration in the world. Scattered herds can be seen throughout Okavango Delta and Makgadikgadi palm belt, near the salt pans, where the mineral content of grass is said to be the highest.
On this majestic safari, you will have the opportunity to sight some of the herds. We recommend that you explore the diversity of Botswana on this wonderful safari itinerary as you take to the sky on a helicopter transfer, an unforgettable highlight on this safari.
The contrast between the lagoons and crystal-clear waterways of the delta to the expansive salt pans and open grasslands of Nxai Pan is best seen from above. This aerial viewpoint offers an amazing perspective and the opportunity to take great photographs. You might see the zebra migration from the air if you’re lucky enough.
