On the water you will be able to relax and unwind on a mokoro excursion on the placid waters of the Okavango Delta.

Day 6 – 7: Okavango Delta

After a leisurely breakfast, fly to a different part of the delta. Arrive and enjoy a refreshing plunge pool in addition to the lodge amenities. Although not as populated with wildlife as your previous destinations, you will still indulge in exploratory game drives and mokoro rides to observe smaller but equally as important birds and other game. Look out for elephants aplenty and stalking lions.
If you didn’t indulge in a sensory massage at the Nxabega Tented Camp, you’ll still can do so on your last few days.
