A landscape so beautiful it seems like a dream, teeming with wildlife and sensational camps: Botswana is one of Africa’s biggest success stories. The country’s low volume, low impact approach to tourism has resulted in some of the most exclusive luxury camps in Africa, with a real sense of remoteness in their lack of fences within vast private concessions.
Work with Indagare to design the perfect itinerary for an immersive journey. Our travel experts know the destination inside and out, and they can make recommendations based on your travel needs and preferences.
This six-night helicopter safari, covering the best of Botswana with stays at three different lodges, is offered exclusively on Indagare.
Experience the best of Botswana with stays at three different lodges, all of which offer prime game viewing and travel between them by helicopter.
Begin your safari with a helicopter flight from Maun to Savute Elephant Lodge, renowned for its elephants, Bushmen rock paintings and zebra migration in October and February. Then head to Belmond Khwai River Lodge in the Moremi Wildlife Reserve, which has some of the continent’s best big game viewing. End in the Okavango Delta at Eagle Island Lodge where you can travel by land or water to see game and safari walks are offered all year.
From $7,890 per person, depending on the season.
The best time to visit Botswana is usually in the drier, cooler months from April through November, but there are advantages to visiting virtually all year round as long as you are in the right area.
We only feature hotels that we can vouch for first-hand. At many of them, Indagare members receive special amenities, including upgrades, early check-in, breakfast, spa credits and more. Look for the Indagare Plus logo in the reviews.
