7 Days in Botswana, incl. Central Kalahari and Okavango Delta
Central Kalahari's vast plains host three nights, followed by three nights at Camp Okavango for water activities. Final day includes breakfast and private flight to Kasane. All meals, activities, and transfers included in the week-long adventure.
- Days 1-3
Central Kalahari Game Reserve
Start your Botswana adventure with an early morning drive from Maun to the Central Kalahari Game Reserve. The journey takes 4-5 hours. Bring light layers since mornings can be cold but afternoons get quite hot. You'll want to focus your wildlife viewing in the early morning and late afternoon when animals are most active. The famous Deception Valley is a must-visit spot where you can spot black-maned Kalahari lions and other predators. The open plains stretch for miles so bring binoculars to spot wildlife in the distance.
- Days 4-6
Okavango Delta
A 45-minute light aircraft flight takes you from the Kalahari to the Okavango Delta. Try to snag a window seat to see the stunning waterways from above. Your experience here will vary by season. High water season (June-August) is perfect for mokoro canoe trips while the green season (November-March) offers great walking safaris on the islands. As one visitor shared: "The mokoro rides were incredibly peaceful – just the sound of water and birds. Our guide spotted tiny painted reed frogs that I would have missed completely." Stay at Camp Okavango or similar accommodations where elevated walkways keep you safe from hippos below. Morning boat safaris give you the best chance to see wildlife when they come to drink at the calm waters. In the afternoon you can join guided nature walks on nearby islands. Remember to wear closed shoes and bring good sun protection since the islands don't offer much shade.
- Day 7
Departure from Kasane
Start your final day with a short flight to Kasane (about 1 hour). Book your connecting flights for the afternoon since wildlife on the airstrip can cause morning delays. Remember the strict 15kg luggage limit on small planes and pack your items in soft bags.
7-Day Okavango Delta, Moremi, and Savuti
Wildlife and culture merge in this 7-day safari across Okavango Delta's waterways, Savuti's predator territory, and Moremi Game Reserve's Mopane Tongue, featuring Xobe Village visits, mokoro excursions, and scenic helicopter flights.
Classic Victoria Falls, Chobe and The Okavango Delta
Wildlife watching stretches across seven days in Chobe National Park and Okavango Delta. Accommodations range from Chobe Safari Lodge to luxury tented camps across 260,000 acres of private wilderness, featuring river cruises and night safaris.

What people love about 7-day Botswana tours
- Botswana Safari
The Absolute Africa 6 day safari was quite an adventure. My wife and I were, to be honest, a little daunted by the prospect of camping and bush camping but due to the efforts of guide Joe, driver Emmaus(EMI) and especially a very welcoming group of travellers, despite our ages of 61 and 66, we thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The tents were durable and easy to erect, the sleeping mats reasonably comfortable and the briefings each night informative. Chobe NP and the Okavango Delta were clear highlights with game drives and cruises providing excellent opportunities to observe the abundant wildlife. The mokoro trips in the delta were an absolute highlight. Big 5 and ‘Pretty 5’ all spotted repeatedly. We believe there should have been more insight offered to the nature of the safari in terms of joining a group briefly who had already been travelling together for 50+ days and whilst it was made clear we would be helping with meals, packing etc. it was not clear in our package we would be actually shopping, cooking, cleaning the bus, packing, doing ‘security’ etc. and a cook would have been an important and welcome addition. To be fair to our crew the groups functioned really efficiently, we have heard that is not always the case. We also believe the group size was too large for best outcomes. In short, due to the personnel and the itinerary, it was a terrific and memorable safari.
