Chiefs Island walking safari

Chiefs Island walking safari

What you'll do

​The Okavango has been described as a “sea of land, land of water” with Chiefs being the largest island in the world's largest inland delta. “Walking” describes only part of the experience where you will be poled along sinuous waterways and backwaters in dug-out "mokoro" canoes, stop, walk, pole, walk. Nights in a semi-luxury game lodge bookend the trail with mobile trail camps set up as you go. Game is more than plentiful and arguably the best year-round game destination in Africa. The Delta is also one of its top birding destinations – in short it is a Paleolithic paradise.​
