Serval Safari: Summary
Serval Safari in a nutshell
A fabulous six-night luxury safari to pristine wilderness areas staying at two of the very best camps in Botswana’s Okavango Delta.
Begin at the strikingly contemporary Vumbura Plains where you can watch elephants, giraffe and hippo amble by your suite’s deck from the plunge pool. Then take a short flight to Mombo, an ultra-luxury camp on Chief’s Island set amid one of the highest game densities in Africa. Predator sightings from camp are not uncommon.
As one would expect, the guiding quality is exceptional, as is the cuisine and service. Activities included range from day and night 4WD safaris, to boat trips and mokoro excursions in the Okavango Delta.
Though opulent, the two camps are run with real sensitivity to their environment and surrounding wildlife, working hard to reduce their environment impact and supporting important conservation initiatives.
Though close geographically, the camps on this trip is linked by swift light-aircraft flights between bush airstrips. These hops are often spectacular, giving you a real insight into the landscapes and landforms which make up the Okavango Delta, as well as the chance to spot some of the larger animals from the air.
