Boat cruise day trip to chief’s island

Tour Information

We will set off for our safari experience on-board a 12 seater motor boat for a full day of viewing game and an abundance of bird species along Botswana's most breath-taking scenery along the Okavango Channels. Your guide will share with you stories about the Chief's Island including its history and its critical role in this part of the ecosystem.

Pick-up at the hotel/lodge in Maun between 6:00am and 7:00am. We will serve you a light breakfast of cereal, yoghurt, toast, juice, tea or coffee. We will then proceed to the boat station where you will leave on a motor boat at 8:00am for a full day of viewing game, birds and some of Botswana’s most breath-taking scenery.

At around midday we will reach our destination near Chief’s Island, which is also the turning point. Here your guide will take you for a 1 hour game walk. Once back at the boat landing your guide will set up a picnic lunch with table and chairs. After lunch you may rest in a shady, beautiful setting to soak up the peace and serenity of the Okavango Delta. We will then depart for the downstream return trip at around 2:00pm, arriving at the boat station before 6:00pm. Once back in Maun we will transport you to where you are staying that night in Maun.
