About This Trip:
This is one incredible journey. We begin with a three-night visit to the Kalahari Desert, one of the richest deserts in the world. There is no landscape like it - a bizarre saltpan the size of Switzerland. It is home to ostriches, Oryx, meercats and brown hyenas. Then we leave the dry behind and fly into the Okavango Delta and the game parks of Botswana! Check out this abbreviated animal list - cheetahs, lions, spotted hyenas, leopards, wild dogs, Cape buffaloes, Red lechwes, the largest concentration of elephants left on the continent, zebras, rare Sitatunga antelopes, crocodiles, hippos and more birds than you can possibly imagine. Botswana has decided to limit tourism in this region and that has created exclusive and expensive trips. But I have found a company, Letaka Safaris that does excellent semi-luxurious mobile camps. I was able to make this trip $2000 less expensive than the one in 2007! And if you have been on safaris to East Africa you will be delighted with our exclusive and very private experience. Visiting one of the world's most spectacular natural phenomena -Victoria Falls - tops off this superb adventure. Optional white water rafting is available on the Zambezi River. WOW, this is a trip of a lifetime. Call for additional details. I would be happy to put you in touch with participants from previous trips.
