Every year, thousands of animals migrate to a watery oasis in northern Botswana to feed, rest and give birth to new life. Welcome to the Okavango Delta - a vast landscape dissected by glittering waterways fringed with papyrus reeds and crisscrossed by animal tracks. Arguably, this is one of Africa’s most impressive wildlife-viewing destinations.
Created as the Okavango River spills out of the Angolan highlands into the Kalahari Basin, the delta is a lifeline for the region's wildlife. As the dry season takes hold across southern Africa, the search for water sees huge herds of elephants, prides of lions and multitudes of zebras make the epic journey north from the arid plains of the Kalahari. The water-filled channels of the Okavango Delta explode with mammals and birds flocking in their thousands, creating a wildlife gathering like no other.
Due to its seasonal flooding and unique geography, visiting the Okavango Delta is a little different from other African wildlife reserves. While classic game drive safaris are possible here during part of the year, other modes of transport take precedence. In this article, discover some of the best ways to explore this watery wonderland and the top things to see and do in the Okavango Delta.
