BOTSWANA MOTORCYCLE ADVENTURE TOUR

After arriving at the lodge from the airport the day is yours! There is a big pool at the main lodge with a restaurant that overlooks the Zambezi River. Dinner this evening will be a buffet dinner at Chobe Safari Lodge.

FLIGHT INFO: ALL GUESTS MUST ARRIVE BY 1PM

OPTION 1: Kasane Airport

Kasane airport is 10 minutes from our lodge. If you choose this option it’s best to fly into Johannesburg, then book a direct flight from Johannesburg to Kasane (SHUTTLE INCLUDED).

OPTION 2: Victoria Falls Airport

Victoria Falls International airport is located in Zimbabwe. To get to our lodge in Botswana you’ll need to organize a shuttle (1.5 hour drive) for $60 each way.

Your first full day in Botswana starts with an early morning game drive into Chobe National Park. Anything is possible to see in terms of game, but this park offers all of the Big 5.

We’ll catch a late buffet breakfast at the lodge and then head back to camp to check the bikes in, do some gear prep.

Later that day we’ll board a private boat that will take us on a sunset boat cruise on the Zambezi River. This is one of the most special wildlife experiences you’ll find in Africa.

After the boat cruise we’ll head back to camp, pack the bikes and enjoy a braii around the campfire.

It’s an early start today! Your first day of riding we’ll be up nice and early to beat the heat of the day so that we can take on Hunter’s Road.

Coffee will be served at camp, but breakfast will be had out on Hunter’s Road.

As we’re leaving early this day we won’t be in a rush. We’ll take breaks often as we need to.

The dirt riding is just under 100kms, followed by 200kms of tar to Elephant Sands.

Here you will get to hang out at the lodge, swim in the pool and relax while elephants are just 10 meters away enjoying their watering hole.

We’ll enjoy breakfast at 7am at the lodge as we watch the elephants drink around the watering hole.

After breakfast we’ll make our way south for an afternoon visit and walk around Kubu Island.

From Kubu Island we’ll make our way north through dense bush and wide open pans.

We’ll arrive at a location in the middle of the Nwetwe Pans where a camp will be set up for us upon arrival. Dinner & breakfast will be served here on the pans, a bonfire will keep us going late into the night and you’ll enjoy sunrise the next morning from your bedroll on the endless pan.

We’ll start packing up early from the pans, enjoy breakfast at camp and start making our way north towards Gweta.

We’ll stop in at Gweta Lodge for showers, lunch and a swim in the pool before making our way to Maun (tar roads).

Dinner this evening will be served at the restaurant and you’ll have a comfortable chalet to rest your head in this evening.

OPTIONAL: Here you have the opportunity to take a scenic helicopter flight from Nwetwe Pans to Kubu Island. This is an added cost which can be added to your booking.

It’s an early start today as we head to the Okavango Delta.

Breakfast is served from 0630, and the game viewer will collect us from camp at 0730 where we’ll take a 2hr drive deep into the Okavango Delta to the Makoro Station.

You’ll be dropped off at the Makoro boats where you’ll be paired up with another rider and a poler who will guide you through the river canals on the fiberglass makoro boat.

Along the way you’ll have the opportunity to experience the Okavango from the water where you’ll likely see hippos, elephants and other local wildlife. Anything is possible.

The boat will drop us off at our overnight bush camp and lunch will be served within a few hours. You’ll have the afternoon to relax, take a nap or have a walk around camp.

Just before sunset you can either head out for a bush walk or take the makoros to a local swimming spot (it’s amazing).

Dinner will be served around campfire by our team and you’ll enjoy a good nights rest in your tent with comfortable linen and the sound of wild animals off in the distance.

Today will be a long day.

Breakfast will be early this morning at camp. After breakfast we’ll load up our gear into the boats and head back to the Makoro station where the game viewer will take us back to our camp.

After arriving back to camp, we’ll gear up to get back on the bikes, grab some lunch for takeaways and make our way north to the Namibian border.

IT’S AN ALL TAR ROAD DAY

Our accommodation this evening will be on the banks of the Okavango River.

OPTIONAL: Here you have the opportunity to sign up for a sunrise helicopter ride through the Okavango Delta. This is an added cost which can be added to your booking.

No riding today! It’s time for some R&R!

You’ll wake up on this day at your leisure from either your own chalet (additional cost) or shared.

A buffet breakfast will be waiting for you to enjoy overlooking the Okavango River.

The activities we have lined up for the day will be a game drive into the Buffalo Park and also another sunset boat cruise, this time from the Okavango River through Namibia.

Dinner will be enjoyed on the deck as you watch the sun go down!

After a hearty breakfast from the lodge we’ll hit the road. Will do a fill up just outside of town and start a full day of tar riding along the Kaprivi Strip back towards Botswana.

It’s a pretty straight road so make sure you’ve got a podcast or some good tunes ready!

We’ll cross through the border and have one more night back in Kasane!

We’ll wake up early, have breakfast, load up into the shuttles and make our way to Victoria Falls where we’ll have a guided tour of the falls before catching flights back home.

OPTIONAL: Victoria Falls Gorge Scenic Helicopter flight. Should you wish to enjoy an epic flight through the Victoria Falls gorge this is an incredible experience to see the falls and fly through the gorge.

DEPARTURE FLIGHT INFO

All guests must book their departing flights from Victoria Falls Airport in Zimbabwe. It is recommended to book a flight after 1pm so that there is time for you to do the Victoria Falls walking tour.
