MIGRATION ROUTES
An Adventurer Exploration - 8 nights / 9 days
Tour direction: Xigera Mokoro Trails to Zambia (also operates in the reverse direction)
Combination serviced camping in private concession areas and exclusive campsites in National Parks and a lodge overnight in Zambia.
Experience a nostalgic camping safari that recreates a sense of wildlife viewing adventure reminiscent of the times of the early African explorers.
The style and essence of Adventurer Safaris takes you back to the by gone days of Africa's exploration. Our 3m x3m dome tents, complete with mini-verandas, allow you to feel more connected to nature, accentuating the feeling of the wild and untamed. Pure cotton linen bedrolls (with duvets) on GI stretchers, bedside table with silver lantern and mini luggage benches add to the atmosphere. Shared separate toilet and shower `bathrooms' with old-style tin bucket showers and basins create simple serviced comfort.
Adventurer camping aims to bring the guest closer to nature, by means of lively campfires, hurricane lanterns, diverse activities and a warm atmosphere permeating the camp (and its simple comforts). Adventurer camps are specifically outfitted to create that camping feel with a clear emphasis on essential comforts and pristine wilderness experience.
Guides: The entire safari is guided and hosted by professional guides, who share their in-depth knowledge to present a seamless safari experience.
Exclusive experience: To ensure as much privacy and exclusivity as possible, most areas in which we travel are private concessions in prime locations. All Explorations camps are private and for the use of Adventurer Exploration guests only, while Natural Mystic Lodge is shared with other guests.
Routes: The route takes the time to explore the contrasts, extremes and continually moving wildlife of northern Botswana: from the waterless Savute Marsh to the broad vistas of the Linyanti with its wooded deciduous forests, the crystal-clear waterways and fertile green islands of the Okavango Delta to the roaring cascades of the Victoria Falls.
Transfers: To maximize guests' travel time, a variety of transport modes that bring out the best of each area is used: flying in private charters and overland transfers provide both a bird's-eye view and an in-depth experience of the contrasting landscapes of Botswana.
Seasonality: We adapt with the changing seasons so as to provide the best possibilities of wildlife viewing on an annual basis. Therefore, between 1 December and 31 May, to maximize the possibility of viewing the zebra migration and other game that moves between Linyanti and Savute at this time, the safari switches a night from Linyanti Trails Camp to Savute in the Chobe National Park. Please note that the zebras are usually all back in the Linyanti region by the end of May, which heralds the end of the migration. If rains are poor, this migration usually does not occur.
