Day 2: Starting early, you will continue your safari activities where you left off the day before. On your armed game walk you will get closer to nature than you ever thought possible.

On your game drive, you will get close to Botswana’s wide variety of big game, including possible sightings of buffalo and elephant and other animal that most typify this area. On your night drive, witness nocturnal species going about their nightly routines, a special thrill for any safari enthusiast.

Day 3: After breakfast you will be transferred to the airstrip for your charter flight to Maun, for your onward arrangements.
