Customizable Itinerary
Day 1 - 2
Moremi Game Reserve - Welcome to the Okavango Delta
Once you have arrived in Maun, you will be within tantalizing reach of one of Africa's greatest natural wonders. Ahead of you is your first destination, just a short flight away, at a safari camp in the heart of the Okavango Delta. This unique ecosystem is a geological marvel, brought about by a tectonic trough within the dry and dusty land of the Kalahari Desert. The rains that fall in the highlands of Angola flow down to this alluvial fan and create an oasis of spectacular and diverse scenery, wildlife and birdlife. Your charming safari camp is an elegant lodge created from local timber, reed, and thatch and is nestled in the Moremi Game Reserve. This reserve was named after Chief Moremi of the BaTawana tribe and is the ideal location for your initiation into the wilds of Botswana.
For the next two nights, enjoy your private and secluded view of the lagoon in front of camp, or venture to the cozy fireside lounge for cocktails in the evening. There is a swimming pool with a breath-taking view and you can lay back and watch out for some of the famous bird species of the area, or explore the watery channels by mokoro. The next two days will include morning and afternoon game drives.

Our trip was amazing and Zicasso's travel company and our agent could not have been more helpful in planning the trip and making sure it was a once-in-a-lifetime experience. She listened to our desires and planned a trip that met all our requirements. She was very patient in making little modifications until we were completely satisfied.
When we encountered some delays during the trip, she was very responsive in helping notify people on the ground and rescheduling our activities so we didn't miss a thing.
She was very knowledgeable about Southern Africa and selected exceptional lodging facilities for us. The accommodations were not only beautiful, but the staff were extremely professional, friendly, and attentive.
I would highly recommend this travel company if planning an African adventure!

What an incredible experience! Everything was so well organized by Zicasso's tour company, from the moment we stepped off the plane in Johannesburg to the time we got back on to head home in Entebbe. We were treated so well by all the support staff hired to help our trip move along seamlessly. All of our experiences were phenomenal and even more amazing than hoped for. We had excellent in-country assistance, lodge staff and other guides, wonderful accommodations, amazing safaris, and delicious food.

First, the booking experience with Zicasso's trip coordinator was seamless. She was always very attentive, responsive, and prompt with her replies. She listened to our wants and delivered beyond our expectations. Even our guides commented that she chose well for us. I would highly recommend booking with her.
Our itinerary in South Africa was pure perfection. Everything from the accommodations to the timing was perfect. We cannot say enough great things about the safari in Sabi Sands and the lodge. The lodge in Franschhoek was exceptional and the one in Gansbaai was the ideal ending to our trip.
This was truly a trip of a lifetime for our family. I’m not sure how we will ever top this experience. Thank you to Zicasso for connecting us with our agent.
