Day 3 Shinde Concession
Moremi Wildlife Reserve , Shinde Concession
Today you'll take a light aircraft out of the National Park and in to the Shinde Private Concession. Here you will be met by your private guide and taken to the Footsteps camp where you will have sole use of this beautiful camp. This is a safari camp as it used to be - rustic - yet comfortable with no detail overlooked. You will stay here for three nights on a private basis. The camp comes complete with a private guide, chef and camp staff.

Day 4 Shinde Concession
The Young Explorers program is great for families who are a little bit more adventurous and want to experience a bit more of the real side of camping in the bush. The camp is a little rustic but far from being basic. It really is an outstanding experience. The camp mainly concentrates on walking as the name suggests, but mokoro trips are also possible and game drives are available if you wish. This is a fantastic experience and you will learn so much along the way from the expert guides.
Accommodation options
Day 5 Shinde Concession
A second full day at Footsteps. The guides are fabulous at engaging the whole family and teaching young safari goers how to track game, recognise spoor, identify birds, whittle a spear and build small animal traps as the bushmen do.
Accommodation options
Day 6 Central Kalahari
Shinde Concession , Central Kalahari
Another light aircraft will take you out of the delta and across to the dry desert of the Central Kalahari. Two nights here introduces you to the life of the San bushmen and offers totally different scenery to where you've already been.
Accommodation options
Day 7 Central Kalahari
Activities from Dinaka focus on exploring the arid landscape in search of the rare brown hyena, Kalahari lion, oryx and bat-eared fox - all animals you don't find in the Okavango Delta. If you're feeling adventurous it is also possible to spend the night sleeping out on the pans under the stars

Day 8 Return home
