2 Nights Okavango Delta Mokoro WildCamping Tour, all-inclusive

Posted By : rebecca m
This was the most amazing part of a 12 day camping safari for our family of 6- all over 17 years old. We camped in the bush, with no power or facilities for 2 nights, learning from the locals who guided us through their delta in their mokoro dug out canoes. Their knowledge is outstanding. The wildlife in the delta was in abundance and unspoilt. We went on walking safaris , coming up close and personal with hippos and buffalo, aswell as zebras, wildebeest, impala, crocs, giraffes etc. Being this close to nature was an unforgettable experience. Be sure to have local currency to tip them in.

It's been some months now since we did the mobile camping in the Okavango Delta with Kalahari Breeze safari. Even months after our trip to Botswana, one of the first things I think about is the mobile camping experience (3 days and 2 nights Okavango Delta). What a great and extraordinary experience we had with Kalahari Breeze Safari!! We were just 2 people and we expected some other tourists to join us, but it seemed we were alone for the whole trip, together with 4/5 people (guides, cook, etc.) from the organisation. It was our first wild camping in Africa, so I was sometimes pretty scared, but the crew really did their best to put me at ease, even changing the program. Actually it's not so strange to be a bit afraid the first time :). The tents and sanitary were very clean, all people of thhe crew were amazing and knew a lot of the environment and the food was very good. I still don't understand how Chef (the cook) could manage to cook such dinners on a camp fire :). We did a mokoro boat trip, visited the local people (we love to explore the local cultures), did a bush walk and safari drives. I can't describe the feeling if you are there in the open wild, everything silent and you only hear the lions, hippo's, monkeys, .. close to you. If you are in Maun and you want an unforgettable safari experience, don't hesitate to book a trip with Kalahari Breeze Safari! Mario and Chris keep up the good work!

Wildcamping in the Okavango Delta is truly experiencing the wild. You are out early and back at sunset, but get to see so much both big and small. The staff are amazing and do a brilliant job of looking after you. The tent is basic but very comfortable and wild bathroom functional, but shower better than we thought it would be. If you really want to spend your Delta time immersed in the environment then this is the trip for you. If you want 5* luxury safari experience then probably not. Thank you Kalahari Breezes you are a company that can be totally trusted to provide a unique experience that will stay in our memories always.

A friend and I went on this tour in early July and had a fabulous experience! Although the tour could accommodate up to six people (because that's as many as the safari jeep could hold), we were the only ones - a private tour! The staff of six (driver, tour guide, chef, and two assistants) were exceptional; as was the poler who guided us through the water in a mokoro and pointed out elephants and other birds and animals as we passed. We had to wait while a herd of elephants crossed the water just ahead of us!

The Okavanga Delta is simply incredible, where the local people and wildlife co-exist. On this tour, you to learn to live the wild animals, track them on foot, and through the channels on the Mokoro from local people. We have been on safaris before in Africa (not Botswana) and this one is extremely different and unique as you experience how locals live with the animals (not just see by car). Highlights and Recognition to share: -Master (not local names) grew up in a village in the delta and has life experiences learning to survive with with wildlife that I cannot even fathom. Brilliant at sharing his stories and knowledge. Master expertise is deep, there is nothing he doesn't know about the delta or animals and he will point out details that you would never learn or see without him. -Jerry was the assistant guide and so friendly and helpful for us! Bryan was our poler and he taught us the culture, how to pole and we had an awesome adventure! We LOVED our guides! -Seeing a cheetah (very close) stalk and kill an Impala, call for her cubs, bring five cubs to the kill and feed them. Incredible surreal circle of life moment. -Baby elephant and mom were literally right outside our tent when I was brushing my teeth. -Almost running into a hippo on the mokoro, retreating, and having to find other ways around the hippos. -We saw endless huge groups of animals by foot trek and game drive - Buffalo, Zebra, Impala, Wilderbeast, Giraffe, Elephant, Hippo, Impala, Warthog, and Ostrich. -We heard the hyena but did not see him, which is good because we were on foot :) -Dinner and Brunch at Camp! Delicious! Homemade bread, lasagna, salad, squash with corn, chicken sausage, eggs, etc. The food was incredible and the chef is super attentive. I believe Doctor was his name - not local name, but forgive me if not correct). - The tent is SUPER nice, I was expecting a small tent. This was a large, heavy duty, with two twin beds, warm blankets, and outdoor camping shower and bathroom. They gave us warm bottles to keep us warm also. -We had a weird schedule in between countries and the company worked with us to customize and maximize our time on the delta, was prompt and informative, and flexible with our needs. If you are a nature, culture and animal lover - I urge you to visit Botswana and highly recommend this company. We stayed in the airport hotel the night before in Maun. It is cute and clean and the breakfast was great. The company picked us up at 7:30a from the hotel and we started, and they dropped us off at the airport to end. Cheers and safe travels!

We originally booked our trip with Kalahari Breeze for 2020 and Chris & Maria were kind enough to hold our trip at the original cost. We finally travelled in July 2022, doing a 6 day tour including a 3 day mokoro / camping safari in the Okavango, a night under the stars on the Makgadikgadi pan, a night at Elephant Sands lodge & a night in Kasane with a river safari and a game drive. Every person we met from the owners Chris and Maria to the drivers and mokoro polers made us feel welcome. We were looked after beautifully with delicious meals magicked up in the middle of the desert. The guides were extremely knowledgeable and really looked after our safety. Honestly, it was the best holiday I have ever had. Have recommended Kalahari Breeze to friends who are thinking of a safari. Could not fault it.

I made a trip at the last minute and booked this tour not really sure what I was getting into. Chris, the manager/owner talked to me the day before and realized I hadn't researched this. He was concerned I wouldn't get the full Okavango plus Moremi experience, so he offered to give me a tour to Moremi on the third day free of charge. The first two days of mokoro (canoe) and walking te islands were an amazing experience, being so close to the animals. The staff were great and my personal guide was fantastic with a wealth of knowledge and experience. I did actually prefer this approach, feeling closer and in a more natural viewing setting to the jeep experience, but we did see fewer animal types as many of the herds had left for Chobe and I saw elephants and lions in Moremi that I would not otherwise have seen. All in all it was a wonderful experience and I was so impressed by Chris' evident care and attention to making my experience one to remember. Any business anywhere will thrive if the owner is personally invested in his/her business and cares about the product they sell. This was no exception. Highly recommend.

After having quite some trouble contacting the office (website not working, outdated information on Google Maps, staff only working from home in the weekends,...) we eventually booked an alternative arrangement with them with accommodation at a permanent camp (they wouldn't book the regular 3 day 2 night trip with wildcamping due to chances of having rain, which didn't happen after all). We were quite disappointed by this trip. First, calling it a 3 day trip is grossly exaggerated, as the first day involves a 3 hour game drive just outside the park, the second day merely includes an indeed very enjoyable mokoro excursion and a 2 hour bush walk, and the third day has nothing more to offer. Second, the trip is merely at the fringe of the Delta, not inside Okavango. This is not what we expected for that amount of money, certainly not worth the 5-star ratings we see here.

Everything went smoothly from beginning to end - from booking, to airport pick up and transfer (and they helped me buy a simcard right after landing in Maun), to the Mokoro rides and walking safari. The Staff are extremely helpful and the guides knowledgeable and kind. I always felt taken care of. The camp was great with good tents and dining spot. The activities were also fabulous - the guide, Thenix, was going at a good pace and was always explaining things to me and showing me around. The food was also great, and I could se the effort and love they put into making food that was tasty and would satisfy the clients. I would highly recommend this tour for solo travelers, couples, and small groups alike!

Many thanks to Kalahari Breeze Safaris for their patience and help in organizing an unforgettable trip to Pom Pom camp. Camp Pom Pom is a private camp with a great location, great facilities, great staff and service. The camp is not surrounded by a fence and animals can walk around the camp. In Pom Pom there is no mobile connection and no internet, only satellite connection. The ranger guides do a great job and will work hard to find the exact animals you want to see.
