What to do in Maun

Maun may not be a big-hitter in the safari stakes but it is the charming gateway to the Okavango Delta. Full of vendors and shops to get you safari ready, you’ll also find a selection of lovely hotels that provide a home-away-from-home in between action-packed days. If you fancy a little bit of adventure while you’re in town, there are scenic heli-flips or small plane flights into the surroundings.

Helicopter safari from the sky in Maun

You'll see the scenic side of Maun as you take to the skies in a helicopter. Rise over the plains and waterways beyond the town, eyes peeled for ambling elephant and buffalo as they wander between waterholes. For those keen-eyed photographers, the doors can be removed for the ultimate snap from the top.

Take a scenic flight from Maun

Leave the quirky town of Maun on a short, scenic flight over the surrounding plains and waterholes, where you'll get a peek at just some of the wildlife you may spot on safari including elephant and buffalo. Sunset from the sky is particularly beautiful.
