Location Of Footsteps Across The Delta
Footsteps Across The Delta is located within the private Shinde concession. At Footsteps Across The Delta you enter one of the great, untamed regions of Africa: the spectacular Okavango Delta. Experience the astonishing contrasts created when the mighty Okavango River flows into the arid Kalahari Desert – the result is a variety of habitats, riverine forest, palm islands, permanent swamps and dry sandveld all with an unparalleled wealth of animal diversity. This program maintains the elegance and eccentricity of the original ‘under canvas African safari’. The emphasis is on exploring this breathtakingly beautiful and diverse environment as the first African explorers did, either by Mokoro or on foot.
Safari Experience At Footsteps Across The Delta
Hosting a maximum of six guests at a time, Footsteps Across The Delta offers a personal safari experience making it an ideal option for small groups of friends or family. The emphasis is on guided walks which allow you to focus on learning how to track wildlife and understand animal movement, patterns and behavior. Being on foot instead of in a vehicle also allows you to gain in-depth information on trees, grasses and the finer details. Fly or spin fishing is available with excellent bream fishing from May to September and superb chances of landing Tiger fish during September to mid-November.
