Family Botswana Adventure

Arrive at Maun airport and transfer to Planet Baobab, a traditionally styled grass hut village shaded by 4000 year old baobab trees. Take a stroll through the bush with your guide and learn about the local ecology, geology and culture, before enjoying your first flaming sunset by a blazing campfire. Return for a delectable dinner.

On day 2, start with a visit to the nearby village of Gweta and mix with the locals and visit the primary school - a must for families, who are made especially welcome by the children. After lunch, the real excitement begins with a quad bike ride out to the lunar landscape of Ntwetwe Pan to marvel at the vast and empty open landscape.. Head even further into nowhere and set up camp for the night under bright starlit skies. Your guides will cook a sumptuous dinner before you tuck into your bedroll. An amazing adventure for all the family.

After sunrise, head off to the nearest waterhole looking for meerkats and other desert wildlife before returning to Planet Baobab for a shower and lunch. In the afternoon you are off again, this time to Nxai Xini Pan where the waterhole is frequented by elephants and other animals and birds - in the evening, after dinner, watch these mighty animals saunter to drink in the twilight. Another exciting night under the stars. Dawn wildlife watching and back to Planet Baobab for breakfast before heading off to the airstrip.

The lodge is a great place for families with specific family chalets with river views.
