Silence in the Okavango Delta

The mokoro, a shallow canoe carved from the trunks of large straight trees such as the ebony and Kigelia, offers a unique way of moving through the Okavango swamps. As your guide steers the canoe with a long pole, you sit eye-level with the water, soaking up the sounds of the wilderness around you, watching fish swimming below you, and savouring intimate wildlife encounters that you would never get from a motorised boat.
