region
Okavango Delta
Sleep one or two nights in Maun for errands and flights, then spend three to six nights in Delta camps arranged by an operator; Maun is the door, not the destination.
Rules in force · 3
- Botswana ↗Check visa and entry rules for your passport on official Botswana government sources before booking.
- Botswana ↗Light-aircraft transfers limit luggage by weight and require soft bags; confirm the limit with your camp or operator before packing.
- Botswana ↗Self-driving in Moremi, Chobe and the Central Kalahari needs a properly equipped 4x4, booked campsites and experience in sand driving.
The Delta is one gateway and a set of camps. Maun is where you cash out, shop and check bags; camps are reached by light aircraft and set the daily schedule. Trips go wrong on luggage weight and on connecting flights that do not match camp transfers.
Where to sleep
Errands, museum and river before the camp flight.
Wildlife areas reached by road or aircraft; camps only.
