The Okavango Delta is the largest wetland in Botswana and where the Kalahari's animals come to drink.

Delta de l'Okavango

The immense desert covers almost half of Botswana and crosses both the Namibian and South African borders. Most tourists cross it little by little, stopping at bush camps along the way.

The Zambezi River  is the 4th most important in the continent, behind the Nile, the Congo and the Niger. It stretches 2750 km from Zambia to the Indian Ocean, passing through Victoria Falls. Downstream, you can go rafting from Livingstone.

Khwai is a village situated on the edge of the Moremi Game Reserve. It's the perfect base camp from which to explore the northern part of the Okavango Delta. A number of luxury lodges can be found along the banks of River Khwai.

I really liked the little village of Khwai. It caters for all budgets - you can't always find easy, reasonably priced places to camp in Botswana. Situated close to the Moremi Reserve's north gate, you'll find a public campsite opposite the village. Very practical if you arrive by four-wheel drive with your own camping gear. 
I stayed in one of the luxury lodges beside the river - the oldest and most prestigious safari camp on River Khwai. The safaris were mind-blowing. I spotted the Big 5, including several leopards (a rare sight indeed) and a pack of wild dogs. Being beside the river, where the delta narrows, is an advantage, as it's here that wild animals congregate.
