Mogogelo Safari Activities
The Okavango Delta needs no introduction – it is considered one of the world’s rare mega diverse regions and hosts an incredible number of species across the board. Mogogelo is in a private concession on the eastern edge of the Delta, bordering Moremi Game Reserve and offers a piece of this world-famous wilderness to guests who can explore under the expert lead of local Motswana guides whose natural heritage this is. Operating on a private concession means guests will be able to do night drives, and during the dry season, walking safaris are a possibility for those who’d like to explore on foot.
Okavango Delta Dreams
Special Champagne Island Stops
A scenic flight over the Okavango Delta is an exceptional experience. Rainwater travels from the Angolan highlands before spreading over Kalahari sands to form the world’s largest inland delta. This expansive wetland teems with wildlife dependent on access to permanent water sources offered by the Okavango. Expect to witness incredible panoramic vistas of this wetland along with an abundance of wildlife sightings including hippos, elephants, lechwe, buffalo, giraffe, impala and perhaps even some predators.
Halfway through your scenic flight the pilot will find a deserted palm island where you can enjoy a peaceful break. Once on the ground, champagne will be popped for you to enjoy alongside views from the ground and further information about the delta from your charismatic pilot. When you have quenched your thirst, you will have another opportunity to enjoy the aerial perspective on your way back to Maun or the camp.

The Okavango Delta
The Okavango Delta is a unique ecosystem of papyrus-lined waterways, knee-deep floodplains, water-lily lagoons, shady forest glades and rich savannah grasslands. All this fecundity lies in the middle of the largest continuous stretch of sand in the world - the Kalahari Desert Basin.
