>> After arriving at Maun Airport in Botswana, you’ll transfer to a shared charter flight to the Kalahari. Set on the edge of the vast and forbidding Makgadikgadi Pans, Leroo La Tau is a remote lodge overlooking the Boteti River, a vital lifeline for the area’s wildlife. Guests enjoy game drives and interpretive walks with expert guides and trackers. Between November and May, herds of migrating wildebeest and zebra arrive, attracting predators in large numbers. Not for nothing does the lodge name mean "Footprint of the Lion". Spot-lit night drives and bird-watching complete the picture.

Guests explore this beautiful corner of the delta by boat, canoe and on foot. Begin the day with a mokoro (canoe) excursion, as your expert guide points out birds and frogs as you drift along crystal-clear rivers.

The lovely chalets overlook the famous Savute Channel, a popular water source for Savute’s thirsty elephants. Savute is one of Botswana’s best destinations for predators and the conflict between lions and hyenas is well documented.
