Botswana: Okavango Track & Sign Experience

This unparalleled seven day Track & Sign adventure will transform you into a skilled observer of nature. You will discover the ancient art of tracking and trailing, learning to interpret subtle clues left by flora and fauna. It’s more than just finding animals; it’s about connecting deeply with the natural world, reading its hidden stories and fostering a profound respect for Africa’s wild.

The Itinerary

We transfer into the camp by light aircraft, getting a bird’s eye view of the Delta in all its glory. Transfers can be arranged overland in the dry season, travelling through Moremi and Khwai Community Concession on the way. We spend the full duration of the experience at the camp location and this allows time to adjust to the environment and become increasingly connected with the wilderness surrounding us.

We live and breathe the bush. We don’t stick to a rigid schedule. If the animals are doing something incredible, we drop everything for a fast night drive to catch a hunt. Let’s go! Your day is shaped by the drama of the savanna, not a clock!

A typical day:

A typical day at camp begins at dawn, marking the start of the adventure. As we track wildlife and explore diverse ecosystems, our guide shares fascinating insights about the surroundings. Freshly brewed coffee allows for a mid-morning safari break and some peaceful moments in our surroundings.

We return to camp to avoid the midday heat and enjoy a delicious lunch. After a welcome, sunny siesta and an African high tea, we head out for the evening’s game-drive, pausing to watch another magnificent sunset.  Thereafter, the delta comes alive, when nocturnal creatures stir and predators hunt, and we observe it all, transcended into this different world.

Back at camp, a hearty dinner is served under a starry sky, accompanied by the sounds of the African night. We gather around the campfire for stories and sharing. We retire to our tents when ready, lulled to sleep by the distant calls of lions, hyenas, frogs and myriad wild sounds.

Each day offers new experiences and discoveries and activities vary between walking safaris, game drives, mokoro trips and sleepouts.  

On day seven, we head back to Maun, hearts full of the awe from the week. We’ll share our stories with loved ones for years to come, though we know no words can truly capture the experience.
