Moonlight Tours Expedition – North Island Okavango: The Ultimate Luxury Safari in Botswana’s Okavango Delta

Nestled on a private island in Botswana’s Okavango Delta, North Island Okavango offers an intimate and luxurious tented camp experience, where breathtaking views of lagoons, floodplains, savannas, and woodlands set the stage for an unforgettable safari. This exclusive retreat combines comfort with adventure, giving you the best of both worlds – a truly remarkable African safari in the heart of one of the continent’s most celebrated wildlife regions.

Immerse yourself in the magic of the Delta with a range of activities designed to bring you closer to nature. Explore the wilderness on land, water, foot, and air, each offering a unique perspective of the diverse ecosystems and abundant wildlife. Game drives in open 4x4 safari vehicles provide excellent opportunities to see lions, elephants, buffalo, wild dogs, and a wealth of other species. Glide silently through the lily-filled channels on a mokoro (traditional canoe) or enjoy the thrill of boating safaris year-round. For those seeking a more immersive experience, guided walking safaris allow you to track wildlife on foot. Finally, see the Okavango from the sky on a hot air balloon or scenic helicopter flight for panoramic views of this pristine wilderness.

After each adventure, retreat to your luxurious under-canvas tent, designed to provide ultimate relaxation in harmony with the stunning surroundings. Unwind with a dip in your private plunge pool, then relax on your sunken sundeck before gathering around the campfire for a memorable evening under the African sky.
