Maun Safari Trips & Tours

Africa’s original ‘safari town’, mention the name Maun to just about anyone in Botswana and they’ll certainly have a few stories to tell… Legendary it may be, but the town’s position in the south-eastern corner of the Okavango Delta is incredibly practical and almost everyone who visits Botswana will more than likely pass through. Tiny planes flutter in and out of the airport every hour, depositing visitors in the remotest corners of the Delta or returning them to civilisation, and dusty 4x4s eject a steady stream of tired-out travellers . On the ground, there’s not much you can’t buy, fix, see or sell when it comes to safari, whether that’s stocking up on your khakis or patching up a spare wheel – and there’s an eclectic selection of hotels and restaurants to explore too. Activities-wise, heli flights over the Delta are easily organised from the operators in town, as well as mokoro trips and a small selection of wildlife-watching opportunities on the Thamalakane River.
