11-Day Botswana Honeymoon Fly-In Safari

At a glance

Chobe National Park, Moremi Game Reserve, Okavango Delta and Makgadikgadi Pans

The 10-night Honeymoon package offers an ideal itinerary for honeymooners, couples celebrating a special occasion, or anyone seeking the ultimate romantic safari experience through Botswana’s top safari regions.

Flying between camps turns the travelling days into part of the safari: an hour over the dunes or the escarpment instead of a day on gravel, and more time where it matters. Every flight, transfer and activity is arranged; you simply arrive.

Travel dates

Travel any time · best from May to October

The dry season, May to October, is the classic time: cool mornings, thin bush and game concentrated along the rivers and permanent water. The Okavango floodwaters usually peak between June and August, which is when the water activities are at their best. November to April is the green season, hot and lush, with newborn antelope, migratory birds and far fewer guests in camp.

Travel dates are yours to choose. Tell us roughly when, and we check availability at every property and on every flight before anything is held.

When to go

Botswana and the Zambezi region follow the same rhythm as Namibia: dry and cool from May to October, with September and October the hottest and best for big concentrations of game, then green and stormy from November to April. In the Okavango the flood arrives from the Angolan highlands around June and lingers into September, so mokoro and boating are at their best in the middle of the dry season. Victoria Falls is fullest from February to May and at its lowest, with the clearest views, from September to December.

What is decided: the shape of the trip: the areas, the order, the properties and the number of nights in each. It is the version we would build first for most travellers.

What we confirm together: your dates, who is travelling, room categories and any extensions before or after. Every safari is tailored from here, and nothing is held until you ask us to.

The practical side

Good to know

The flights: Light aircraft link the camps, flown by the regional charter operators. Flights are scheduled the evening before; the camps hand you over at the airstrip and collect you at the other end. Regional connections between countries are on scheduled airlines.
Luggage: Light aircraft have a strict limit of about 20 kg per person, including hand luggage, in soft bags without wheels or frames.
Passports and visas: Border formalities are handled at the airports as you cross between countries. Visa rules depend on your nationality and change from time to time; we confirm what applies to you when we quote.
Health: The Okavango, Chobe, the Zambezi and the Kruger lowveld are malaria areas. Speak to a travel clinic about prophylaxis and vaccinations a few weeks before you travel.
Meals and activities: The safari camps are fully inclusive: all meals, most drinks, laundry and two guided activities a day with the camp's own guides.
Connectivity: Most camps have Wi-Fi in the main area only, and some of the remoter ones have none at all. It is part of the appeal.
What to pack: Neutral colours for game drives, a warm jacket for early mornings in the dry season, a hat, good sun protection, closed shoes for walking, binoculars, and soft bags rather than hard cases.

We tailor it.Within a day or two you have a version built around you, the same shape if you like it or a different one, with a firm quote for your dates and party.
We hold the rooms.Once the shape is right we place provisional holds at every property and on the flights, at no cost and with no obligation, usually for a week or two.
Deposit and confirmation.A deposit turns the holds into confirmed bookings. The balance is due before travel, and we look after everything from there until you are home again.

This page is a sample itinerary, not a quote, and nothing on it is booked or held. If it suits someone you know, send them the link; we are just as happy to start from scratch for them.
