Meet your guide, James, at the Maun Educational Park and head to the nearby mokoro station. Board a mokoro, a traditional canoe once carved from the trunk of a sausage tree, but now made of fiberglass to protect the delta's trees. When the sun is setting you will glide quietly through the channels of the Okavango Delta. You can add a small drink to your booking to make this experience even better.

Listen as James shares stories about the area and what nature provides. Feel free to ask him about his adventures with hippos and crocodiles.

James grew up on the banks of the Okavango River in northern Botswana. Fishing and hunting were part of daily life. Not recreation, but essential for putting food on the table. That same deep understanding of the delta, the hidden channels, seasonal shifts, and habits of tigerfish and bream, is what he brings to Mahango Mokoro Tours. He's not a guide who learned the delta from a manual. He's someone who grew up on it, relied on it, and knows it like few others do.
