Description

Explore the Okavango Delta on a traditional mokoro canoe tour. Spot hippos, elephants and birds, enjoy a guided nature walk, and benefit from a pre-tour briefing.
Begin your adventure with a detailed pre-tour briefing the day before your excursion, including helpful advice on appropriate clothing and what to expect during the experience.

On the day of the tour, travel with a Maroo Adventures representative to the mokoro station, where you will be welcomed by experienced local polers from the community. One of these skilled polers will also serve as your guide throughout the journey.

Glide silently through crystal-clear channels in a traditional dugout canoe, enjoying breathtaking scenery and a unique perspective of this remarkable ecosystem. The water is naturally filtered by water lilies, papyrus reeds, and Kalahari sands, creating a pristine environment teeming with life.

During your excursion, observe hippos and elephants from a safe distance while taking in the beauty of the surrounding wilderness. The experience also includes a guided nature walk on one of the Delta’s islands, offering opportunities to spot wildlife such as zebras, giraffes, impalas, and a variety of bird species, depending on the season and conditions.
