Okavango Delta, Botswana
2-Day Overnight Mokoro, an Epic Okavango Delta
Overview
Feeling adventurous? Join us on an African adventure that takes you deep into the heart of the Okavango Delta. This is the ancient mode of transport used by the local indigenous people to transverse the delta. From the low vantage point of a dugout canoe --known by the local people as Mokoro --you'll experience a local tradition that has defined the way safaris are run in the Okavango Delta. All are conducted by local indigenous people whose knowledge has been passed on for generations.
