Example of a tailor-made journey, fully customisable
Botswana
11 days / 8 nights
June to October
OKAVANGO DELTA
After a short flight from Maun, you’ll enter the watery maze of the famous Okavango Delta, where lagoons, peninsulas and winding channels form a rich and exceptional ecosystem.
Set within a small private concession, abundant in wildlife and with a lagoon that holds water year-round, your privatised tented camp offers true immersion in the bush for 3 nights, while your young explorers benefit from the knowledge and the hands-on activities led by your private guide.
On the programme: wildlife and flora discovery, tracking, 4×4 safaris, mokoro, walking safaris, fire-making techniques, and more.

KHWAI CONCESSION
Flight to the dry-land part of the delta, specifically the Khwai concession.
During the dry season, this wildlife sanctuary shelters varied fauna (herds of elephants and buffalo, zebras, giraffes, antelopes, hippos, crocodiles, hyenas, wild dogs, lions) and a great number of bird species, thanks to its vast marshlands fed by the Linyanti River.
Breathe deeply and take in the beauty of this natural world.
You’ll stay 3 nights in a small, recently built camp with great charm. Only 10 luxury tents, including 2 family tents.
2 activities per day, your choice (not private, with the lodge’s English-speaking guide): 4×4 safaris, mokoro (from age 12), walking safaris, visits to local communities
A pool will delight your children.
On the lookout for exceptional wildlife and flora, your child will observe the behaviour of the surrounding animals and learn the rules of survival in the bush, guided by expert advice.
A genuine introduction to the bush.

CHOBE RIVER
To close out (or open) this journey in style, we recommend two nights on a small 6-cabin boat for a change of pace.
Two daily safaris by small motorboat on the Chobe River will give your children their fair share of thrills, surrounded by elephants, hippos and crocodiles — safely, of course!
