Botswana Fly-In Safaris
A Fly-in Safari is the Perfect Way to Experience Botswana's Remote And Wild Destinations
The remote and wild national parks and game reserves of Botswana offer some of Africa's most exciting wildlife viewing destinations.
A Botswana fly-in safari is an excellent way for you to experience Botswana's diverse landscapes, game reserves and national parks. From the Okavango Delta to the Chobe National Park, from the Magadikgadi Pans to the Central Kalahari Desert, you will have the opportunity to explore a variety of habitats and ecosystems that are teeming with wildlife.
These vast, undeveloped areas are home to an abundance of wildlife, including lions, elephants, leopards, wild dogs, cheetahs, antelope and plains game. Visitors then can enjoy safaris by open vehicle, on foot, by mokoro (traditional canoe) or by motorised boat.
The easiest and quickest way for you to get to these wild and remote regions is by light aircraft from either the towns of Maun or Kasane. Time on your Botswana safari is maximised by using light aircraft, which can whisk you between remote lodges in 20 minutes and up to an hour or two. This means you can make the most of your time on safari and see a greater variety of wildlife and landscapes.
Accommodation is in luxury safari lodges and tented camps that all offer visitors all the comforts, amenities, and activities needed for a safari of a lifetime. Depending on one's budget, one can stay in anything from a Relais & Châteaux property all the way through to a rustic tented camp with basic amenities. The choice is yours at the end of the day.
In general, a Botswana Safari by Air with light aircraft is tailor-made based on one's budget and time constraints, all the while maximising your time game viewing and relaxing.
If you're looking for an unforgettable safari experience, a Botswana fly-in safari would be the perfect choice.
