Okavango Delta, Botswana

Africa’s Water Wonderland

The Okavango Delta is one of the world’s most spectacular natural treasures. Unlike any other river system, the Okavango spreads across northern Botswana to form a vast network of floodplains, channels, lagoons, and islands, creating a haven for wildlife and a paradise for safari-goers.
