On safari at Duba Plains Camp. The Duba Plains Reserve has Botswana's densest population of lions as well as Botswana's largest buffalo herds, frequently numbering in the thousands. It is also a good area for birding as hundreds of species can be found in the concession including the saddle-billed stork and wattled crane.
Leaving the Delta you will fly south to the rugged, yet beautiful, Makgadikgadi Pans. Where there was once a vast lake, there are now miles of shimmering white salt pans expanding out in all directions. What little vegetation and water is available draws in the local wildlife making for excellent viewing opportunities. You will enjoy all of this from the comfort of your private tent at Jack's Camp.
On safari at Jack's Camp, you'll enjoy safari drives, guided walks and you may even get the chance to explore the area on a high-specification mountain bike during dry season. We recommend joining a nighttime safari to see some of the pans' rarer species such as aardwolves, aardvarks, and brown hyenas.
This morning you can wake up early to visit one of the meerkat clans that call the Kalahari home. These inquisitive creatures have been known to climb on top of visitors' shoulders in order to keep watch for predators. After a relaxing afternoon, you can head back out on a second safari in the company of local bushmen trackers to understand their culture and learn about the pans through their eyes.
This morning you will be flown back to Maun by light aircraft.
Arrive home today to complete your journey.
