Day 4: Flight of the Angels
Helicopter flight over the falls
Water-based activities are conducted by experienced professional guides who will expertly navigate guests through the many meandering, reed-lined waterways. Roam the vast expanses of water from the comfort of a modern motorboat or explore the intricacies of the Okavango Delta the quiet old-fashioned way, in the traditional mokoro (dugout canoe).
For those wanting to get a little closer to nature, guided bush walks are conducted on a number of the nearby islands, offering an opportunity to track some of the larger land-based species that inhabit this water wilderness. Birding opportunities are outstanding and anglers may put their skill against bream and tiger fish. Camp Okavango is a water-based camp and game-drive activities, using safari vehicles, are not possible.
Guest spending three nights or more at Camp Okavango can enjoy a night on the new Camp Okavango sleep out deck. The open deck offers you the chance to sleep out under the stars and experience the vastness of the Okavango Delta. The sleep out deck includes a comfortable bed (mosquito net included), bathroom and all the amenities you need for a comfortable night out.
Flying Fox Experience
Imagine taking a running jump into thin air over the chasm, soaring horizontally through the air over the turmoil of the Zambezi below. The gorge at this point is 200 meters wide and 120 meters deep. This is a great appetizer before you try the Zip Line and Gorge Swing.
The Flying Fox: Fly over the gorge! Take a running jump into thin air over the chasm, soaring horizontally through the air over the turmoil of the Zambezi below.
The Minimum age is 2 years old. This activity is totally safe for children of all ages. Smaller children are harnessed with their parent/guardian and can enjoy high wire.
Wild Horizons Malachite Dinner Cruise
As the sun begins its descent, guests step on board the Wild Horizons Malachite Dinner Cruise for an exceptional evening on the Zambezi River. Like the exquisite bird after which it was named, ‘Malachite’ is one of the Zambezi River’s crowning gems. Powered by two 60HP four stroke marine motors, this beautifully crafted double deck ‘floating restaurants’ silently slices across the surface of the river.
On the upper deck, guests are offered a glass of sparkling wine to sip as they settle into the plush cushioned furniture and relax before the journey along the Zambezi River begins; all the while looking out for the various birdlife and animals there are to be seen, and then watching as one of Africa’s famous sunsets erupts in the sky. A barman and three intuitive waiters anticipate guests’ needs, serving a selection of lively cocktails and imported premium spirits throughout their journey.
After the sun has sunk below the river line, dinner is served on the lower deck of the vessel exemplifying the hallmarks of exquisite cuisine prepared on board by two chefs. The rich aroma of locally sourced, fresh ingredients wafts around diners as the dishes are plated.
A captain completes the crew and their combined experience promises an insightful and memorable evening.
