Okavango Delta & Camp Savuti – 5-days/4-nights – SAVE $250 p/p


This exclusive 2AFRIKA African safari special is unquestionably another one of those amazing safari specials that you simply cannot afford to pass up!

Combine this safari with the Victoria Falls, and Cape Town, and you will have created a memory of a lifetime that will NEVER fade!

Mapula Lodge has become synonymous with providing a true wilderness offering. It is situated in the northern area of the Okavango Delta just outside the Moremi Game Reserve, which in turn enables the lodge to offer a full spectrum of activities, all with a guide and tracker. Mapula lodge is a land camp and water camp with day and night drives (guide and tracker), bush walks, boating and mokoro excursions.

The Savuti has developed a reputation over the years as a prime area to view predators in Botswana, especially lion and spotted hyena. The Savuti lies within the Chobe National Park and boasts one of the highest concentrations of wildlife on the African continent. The Savuti Channel itself was a river and in 1982, it abruptly stopped flowing. The event was so unusual that it was extensively covered by various wildlife documentaries. Miraculously, in 2010, the Savuti starting flowing again!
