This morning your guide will collect you from your Maun hotel and transfer you 3-hours to Moremi Game Reserve, situated on the eastern side of the famous Okavango Delta.
Within an hour of leaving Maun, it is possible to view the first of the birds that inhabit this unspoilt region. We should have a good day for raptors, so look out for the African hawk-eagle, Gabar goshawk, Shikra, Little sparrowhawk, Dark chanting goshawk, Tawny eagle, Lesser spotted eagle* and Steppe eagle* which all inhabit the mopane and adjacent woodlands.
Other birds common along this route includes most of Botswana’s hornbills including the Red-billed, Southern yellow-billed, African rrey, Bradfield’s and Southern ground hornbills. A large number of brood-parasites may also be seen including the Diederick cuckoo*, Levaillant’s cuckoo*, Jacobin cuckoo*, Great-spotted cuckoo*, African cuckoo*, Common cuckoo*, Shaft-tailed whydah, Pin-tailed whydah, Eastern paradise whydah, Greater honeyguide, and Lesser honeyguide (*=migratory species).
On arrival check into your tented camp, settle in and relax in this pristine conservation area.
Note: Packed lunches will be provided on travelling days and soft drinks will be provided at tented camps. A head torch is essential, as lighting in the tents is dimmer than at home. When staying at lodges, any soft drinks or alcohol are payable locally.
