This little zebra says it all — the Okavango in its green season has a spring in its step. New life. Fresh energy. A quiet sense of abundance. Pictured on the Kwara reserve, a vast and wonderfully varied reserve in the eastern Okavango.

A quiet pause between tack and trail in the heart of the Delta. Since 2025, Gareth & Alex have been at the helm of Okavango Horse Safaris. After many years working in camp, they were the natural choice to carry forward the legacy begun by PJ & Barney Bestelink, the pioneers of riding safaris in Botswana. Same spirit, same exceptional horses—fresh momentum for the journeys ahead.

Full moon is always special, particularly over the waters of the Okavango Delta. And Xugana Island Lodge, overlooking a stunning deep water lagoon, is one of the best spots to enjoy the moonrise over the shimmering waters. And sunrise and sunset for that matter! The lodge reopens today after a complete rebuild- as it’s looking absolutely beautiful.

There are only an estimated 6,600 African Wild Dog left in the wild. These beautifully tie-dyed predators are Africa’s second most endangered large carnivore. As wild dogs are a pack species (with on average 10 individuals), this translates to only 660 packs (or breeding females). Botswana is home to a significant number of these dogs, with an estimated to be 1,310 individuals (or 131 packs) in the country, making it one of the best places to see Wild Dogs in Africa. And the Kwara and Kwando Reserves offering some of the best opportunities of seeing them. Picture from 4 Rivers camp with

Thanks to the bountiful rain these past 2 weeks the Okavango is starting to resemble the watery wetland landscape usually only seen during the flood season (typically from June-September)- meaning some camps are now able to offer water activities like boating and mokoro, such as Xigera Safari Lodge, who have just resumed boating activities. Wonderful news for those travelling in Green season, who will experience a range of activities usually only possible in peak season.

Exploring the waterways of the Okavango by Mokoro (the traditional dug-out canoe) is the ultimate slow safari - an incredibly peaceful experience allowing you to connect with the sights, sounds and smells of the environment. Mostly the focus is on the smaller creatures which call the wetlands home – but occasionally the bigger animals return to steal the show! A wonderful picture shared with us by our recent travelers to the Khwai Private Reserve. Thank you!
