Expert-led game drives in the early morning and late afternoon take you into the thick of this unique and extraordinarily biodiverse habitat. There may also be the opportunity to venture out after dark on night game drives in search of nocturnal species.

At Stanley’s Camp you’re in the thick of the greatest inland river delta on the face of the earth – it makes sense to explore it on water when conditions permit. Excursions can be taken by mokoro – the traditional punt-like dugout canoe. (Seasonal Activity)

Fully personalised scenic helicopter flights give you a lilac-breasted roller’s eye view of large parts of the Okavango Delta that are unreachable by land or water. You’ll swoop and skim above an epic patchwork of waterways, palm islands, lagoons and sweeping floodplains.

Nothing quickens the senses quite like a stroll in the African wilderness. And because Stanley's Camp is located within a private concession, guided walks are not merely possible but strongly recommended (weather-permitting, as ever). Get your boots on.
