The sun warms your face, the gentle breezes cool you. Take it all in from your mokoro – a traditional dugout canoe, surrounded by lapping clear water and dipping reeds. As the vast delta stretches across the wilderness, it spreads calm and serenity and provides sustenance for a range of wildlife from great elephants to timid antelope that you can glimpse on the Mopani-lined banks as they come down to drink.
Soft splashes as fish jump, the blowing of a hippo as it emerges, bush calls, insects chirruping, and the distinctive Fish Eagle cry. Sightings of the abundant birdlife. Exquisite beauty at a languid pace, offering great photo opportunities as life takes on a sharper focus.
