The reserve is situated in the north-eastern corner of the Okavango Delta.

Day 5 & 6
The Savute Marsh is the deepest part of the Mababe Depression and is the only part to have filled up with water in recent history. Today the marsh is dry and attracts a large population of animals, particularly hyena and lion. The Savute channel has a fascinating history of flooding and drying up independently of good, rainy seasons and flood levels elsewhere, a mystery that has intrigued geologists for many years. Our guide takes us on safari drives in the morning and late afternoon.

Day 7 & 8
After 2 nights at the Savute Channel, we travel northwards and install our bush camp near the Chobe River. Chobe is famous for its beautiful scenery and magnificent sunsets. The largest elephant population (+-30 000) in Africa lives in the region and we may have the opportunity to watch herds of elephant drinking at the river. In November 1855, David Livingstone, with his 114 porters, left the Linyanti / Chobe for the Great Falls east of Sesheke ; the falls of Mosi-oa-Tunya “The smoke that thunders”.
