Okavango Delta
In the north, the Okavango Delta is the lifeblood of Botswana, drawing massive herds of elephants, huge concentrations of game and other wildlife and birds. A blend of pans, marshlands, reed banks, forests of giant acacia trees, and mopane woodlands, the Okavango is arguably the finest wildlife sanctuary in Africa. It is protected and preserved for the benefit of wildlife and tourism and achieves a delightful balance of both.
Incredible and exclusive game viewing experiences like nowhere else on earth exist here. Glide effortlessley through the delta in a mokoro canoe, a specially outfitted motor boat, or exclusively with a private game guide in an open 4×4 safari vehicle. Ker & Downey offers the best of Botswana. After all, our roots began here. Private, exclusive, and downright adventurous, imagine watching a pride of lions for hours without seeing another human being until returning to camp that night. This is Botswana with Ker & Downey.
