Geography: The Okavango Delta is situated in the northern part of Botswana.

History: Okavango Delta is Botswana's Garden of Eden and the flood plains, shallow reed beds, lily ponds and papyrus swamps are unique in Africa. It is a 15,000 sq km maze of lagoons, channels, and islands and for this reason is aptly known as "the river that never finds the sea". The Okavango Delta System has been designated as a Wetland of International Importance and is the world's largest Ramsar Site.

Arts & Culture: The deltas at the Okavango River, the Nile and the Ganges Rivers are known as such because of their triangular shape, or somewhat like the Greek letter "delta".

Science & Nature: The Okavango River which has its source in the Angolan Highlands passes through Namibia before forming the Okavango Delta in Botswana. The Delta is an area rich with a variety of mammals, birds and fish. The islands of the Delta are extremely lush and visitors can enjoy the palms, forest glades and the more than 400 species of birds. Game-viewing here is unsurpassed and travellers can marvel in sighting lion, elephant, hyena, wild dog, buffalo, hippo and crocodiles. Other smaller mammals to be seen include warthog, mongoose, spotted genets, monkeys, bushbabies and squirrels.

Entertainment: Tourists holidaying in this area have the great outdoors to keep them blissfully entertained. Canoeing on the clear waters and viewing the animals as they come down to the waters to drink is a truly magical experience, while 4x4 trails with amazing game-viewing opportunities are very popular.
