Wildlife photographer extraordinaire Hannes Lochner is no stranger to some of Africa’s wildest places. After spending two and a half years behind the camera in Botswana’s Okavango Delta, his captivating coffee table book, Planet Okavango, has seen the light. By Arnold Ras
Moremi Game Reserve is perhaps the best game-viewing destination in Botswana, but which is the best campsite to stay at? Well, you can’t get much better than camping on your very own delta island. Gcudikwa 1 is 15km from Third Bridge, only accessible by boat, and yours to book exclusively, for a wonderful wild-camping experience. By Chris Davies
Farm stays feature high on my list of accommodation options wherever I travel. Having visited Maun on numerous occasions, in April 2017 we discovered a little-known destination called the Tshilli Farm, in an ancient forest in a remote area called Tsutsubega. The farm is situated on an island in the floodplain, at the edge of the Okavango Delta. By Romi Boom
