Unlike other deltas in the world, it flows into the Kalahari Desert without reaching the coast, which makes it unique. Afterwards, we make our way to a private concession in the Khwai River area to our camp. This evening we go on a night game drive in the concession. This area lies between Moremi and Chobe and we will have the opportunity to spot a variety of nocturnal animals.
