SOSA has teamed up with Lessons in Conservation to host a trip in the beautiful country of Botswana, South Africa. The trip has been carefully curated by our partner Actually Africa with an action-packed itinerary full of wildlife sightings, community programming and of course, lessons in conversation.
Below is an overview of the dates and what you can expect from the Botswana Impact Safari experience. Please note: Price includes all activities, meals and transportation within the itinerary below. It does not include flights to and from Botswana.
Why you’ll love it
The Boteti River is a magnet for wildlife. From the comfort of your private veranda you will get to watch herds of elephants, zebras, wildebeests, oryxs, impalas and more! Not only will you get to see these animals in their natural habitat from the clifftops, you’ll be spending your days partaking in floating hides (boat tours within the Boteti River) and game drives (driving African Safari tour through Makgadikgadi Pans National Park to see the animals up-close in their natural habitat).
When you’re not gawking over the wildlife, you’ll be:
- Learning from Dean of Lessons in Conservation alongside local youth, the importance of wildlife and nature conservation across Southern Africa.
- Enjoying a cultural experience with Indigenous Peoples of Southern Africa, the Ju! Hoansi Bushmen, where they will share their traditional ways of life with guests.
Why you’ll love it
Guests will enjoy a scenic helicopter ride to and from Elephant Havens orphanage and spend the day at the nonprofit elephant rescue. At Elephant Havens, the dedicated staff take in abandoned or orphaned baby elephants, raise them to adulthood and release them back into the wild when they are ready! Every elephant is a 20-year commitment for Elephant Havens, we are lucky we get to be part of their journey.
DAY 5 - 6
Guests will stay at Mokolwane Lodge in Ranwanalenaus
that overlooks the infamous wetlands of the Okavango Delta.
Why you’ll love it
