Black-backed Jackal Safari

Black-backed Jackal: In full

This Botswana safari offers exceptional value for money and concentrates on different areas of Chobe, Savute and the Okavango Delta; with a mixture of semi-permanent tented accommodation, and a safari lodge. Stay for a total of 6 nights in three top safari game camps: Chobe under Canvas, Savute under Canvas and Sandibe Camp. All of these camps run their game drives using expert guides.

The trip is an individual trip, and can be tailor-made and adapted to suit you.

This Botswana safari can also easily be combined with a visit to see the Victoria Falls. See our trips to Livingstone for examples of the add-on options, and their costs.


Day 1

Starting from London Heathrow, your scheduled overnight flight takes you to Johannesburg.

Days 2-3

2 nights at Chobe Under Canvas (full board & activities) | Chobe National Park, Botswana

Chobe Under Canvas has got six tents...In Jo'burg you'll connect to a scheduled Air Botswana flight to Kasane. From there you'll be driven to your first camp Chobe under Canvas in the Chobe National Park. You'll be based here for 2 nights of top game-viewing and a very authentic experience at Chobe Under Canvas.

Days 4-5

2 nights at Savute Under Canvas (full board & activities) | Chobe National Park, Botswana

Savute under Canvas has the perfect balance between comfort and camping...A light air transfer then takes you from Chobe to your next camp which will be situated in Savute (still in the Chobe National Park) and will be your next base. This camp will offer a different experience from the previous two nights spent in the Chobe. The Savute Channel provides a watery lifeline to the otherwise arid environment here. With an abundance of wildlife and plenty of beautiful landscapes this is a fantastic stop off for the 2 nights.

Days 6-7

2 nights at Sandibe Safari Lodge (full board & activities) | Okavango Delta Safari Reserves, Botswana

The main area at Sandibe Safari Lodge is built two-storeys high, and very stylishly done.After a game drive back to your respective airstrip, and a flight of roughly half an hour, you land at Chitabe Airstrip (shared by Sandibe). It is about a half hour drive through forests and open flood plains to camp – although you'll probably take longer as you stop for game. Your camp for the reminder of your trip is situated on the banks of the Santantadibe River and provides an extremely comfortable base from which to explore the surrounding area by boat and game-drive. For these 2 nights your stay will be at Sandibe Safari Lodge.

Day 8
