Join us for a captivating 3-day Mokoro Safari in the Okavango Delta, where traditional canoeing combines with guided bush walks to bring you close to the area's diverse wildlife. A traditional mokoro, the canoe-like vessel of the Okavango Delta, is approximately 20 feet (6 meters) long. Originally, the mokoro was the primary mode of transportation for fishing and for moving people and goods through the delta's waterways. Throughout your three days in the Okavango Delta, you’ll traverse the peaceful waters, observing hippos, crocodiles, and a variety of birds. Each day of this 3-Days Best Mokoro Safari in the Okavango Delta is crafted to help you fully enjoy the Delta's tranquil charm. Your itinerary includes morning bush walks for wildlife tracking, followed by soothing mokoro excursions. The Okavango Delta is renowned for its seasonal floods and rich wildlife concentration. There isn't a fixed duration for a canoe trip in the Okavango Delta, as you can even opt for multi-day trips. The best time for a Mokoro Safari in the Okavango Delta is during the dry season (June to October), when animals gather around scarce water sources. Conversely, the wet season (November to April) offers beautiful scenery, lower prices, and fewer crowds.
