Detailed Itinerary
Day 1 and 2: Okavango Delta
Arrive in Maun and transfer by light aircraft over the delta to Moremi Crossing. Your aerial perspective of the delta provides the scale that your water-level view cannot comprehend.
Moremi Crossing is on an island linked to Chief's Island in the Okavango Delta's Moremi Game Reserve. The lodge is a model of eco-construction with solar power and advanced waste management. Newly built, the rooms and quality of this lodge coupled with its magnificent setting turn affordable comfort into surprising luxury.
Accommodation comprises en suite Meru suites with tented roofs and wooden deck floors; each has a view of the beautiful waterway and islands around.
Moremi Crossing is a classic water camp. Access from the airstrip is by boat and activities include the sublime mokoro safari where your guide poles you gently through the shallow channels exploring this fascinating wonderworld. Guided walking safaris offer a new dimension to the water-based experience and in high-water periods a bit of a motor on your boat is yet another way to experience the delta.
Accommodation:
Moremi Crossing

Includes:
Transfers, full board (excluding premium branded drinks), mokoro, game walk, motorboat cruise.
Day 3 and 4: Okavango Delta
You will have to drag yourself away from your post-safari breakfast to board the short flight to your next destination. But you need not worry, Pom Pom Camp, while completely different, is equally amazing.
Pom Pom Camp also enjoys the luxury of an exclusive private concession, this time on the western edge of the Moremi Game Reserve, deep into the Okavango Delta's permanent waterways.
Activities are both land and water-based with game drives, night drives, mokoro outings, water safaris and guided bush walks on offer. Big predators and plains game abound year round - and why with good reason the Okavango Delta is paradise for them, as close to unspoilt as you will ever get.
Accommodation:
Pom Pom Camp

Being in a private concession in the Okavango Delta means Pom Pom Camp and its (maximum) 18 guests have exclusive access to Africa's most pristine and unspoilt wilderness area.

We would like to commend the high service received from Namibian Tours and Safaris especially taking into account the short length of time you had to arrange this holiday for us. The recommendations and itinerary were ideal with the majority of our stay in each location being the right duration. The whole process of booking this holiday was hassle free and we would not hesitate in recommending your services to others.
We would specifically like to thank you, Alison, for all of your hard work which resulted in a truly fabulous holiday for us. Also, it was great to meet up with you in Solitaire where you expressed so much love for your country and this was clearly mirrored in the schedule and service you presented to us allowing us to experience this fantastic country. It will not be the case of 'if' we return to Namibia, it is more the case of 'when' we will return as we enjoyed it so much.
A special mention for Edward he did a super job – vouchers and maps were with our car hire agency at the airport – book presentation of whole trip was clear, easy to follow and complete. He even gave us his mobile No in case we encounter some problems. Really to recommend as Tour Operator and will use them again next time.
Road – all went well and thanks to have recommended a 4Wheel Drive Car – due to rough road conditions we appreciated – you could do it with a normal car and met tourists with B type cars but they took much longer for the journeys – had more issues with flat tyres and most admitted next time they will take a 4Wheel Drive Car.
Would like to thank you for all your time spent and hard work to find best places, difficult tasks due to budget restrictions. I will recommend you and your agency whenever I can – actually already did in Joburg – hope brings you some new customers - and of course will come to you for my next trip this time to South Africa hopefully in 2012.
Dear Wilmari,
Back home and I wanted to take a moment to thank you again for planning a perfect vacation for us. I was especially pleased that for the accommodation with dinner all knew about my allergies and cooked accordingly. The Cheetah experience made my daughter very happy and they were so kind to not even charge me for taking pictures.
Highlight of our trip was the stay in
The Fort

and we are determined to return one day.

I cannot recommend to anybody (fined for driving on their property and below average dinner buffet) and also the Olivia Guesthouse was a letdown when it came to the food (lunch and breakfast).
I have posted some pictures on Flickr, maybe you want to have a look and I'm always happy to read comments.
Last but not least: Could you please send us the itinerary you prepared for us and we received at arrival electronically? Some of my friends are interested to book the same trip with you.
