Okavango Delta

The Okavango River is fed by clear mountain streams rising in central Angola and flowing southward through the Caprivi into northern Botswana, where it fans out and forms the beautiful lush wetland oasis we know as the Okavango Delta. The delta is a unique Garden of Eden, providing a refuge that attracts wildlife and birds in abundance. This is a vast area of secluded waterways, papyrus, thickly wooded islands and stupendous wildlife, one of the major wilderness attractions of Africa. In the north and central part of the delta lies the permanent water. Here game viewing is mainly by motorboat, on foot with an experienced tracker/guide on one of the delta?s many islands or, in ultimate harmony with nature, by a traditional mokoro (traditional dug out canoe).
