Okavango Delta at a glance
The delta itself takes the shape of a hand, the palm is permanently filled with water and the fingertips seasonally flood to form canals. In a country that is 80% arid, the Okavango is an incredible source of life. Many travellers prefer to visit the delta in the drier season, from May to October, when the best wildlife encounters are almost always guaranteed.
