Activities from Maun – Maun Day Trips
KAS also offers Maun Day Trips. We can collect you from your place of stay to partake in any of the below Maun safari tours.
One Day Mobile Safari – Moremi Game Reserve
Best suited for those of you short on time but still wishing to experience the flora and fauna of Botswana’s world-renowned Moremi Game Reserve
Trips depart at 6am to catch the best game viewing time. There is often a good chance of spotting game between the Veterinary fence (Mowana Gate) and Moremi South Gate at this time.
A stop for coffee and an informative talk on your destination by your guide will set you up for a rewarding day in the Moremi Game Reserve. Once through South Gate you will be driving through the south western area of Moremi Game Reserve known as Black Pools and Xini Lagoon. These areas are a mix of open savannah, tree islands and lagoons offering an excellent mix of birding and wildlife viewing.
Included: Tea/Coffee, picnic lunch with water and juice, all park fees and the services of a qualified, professional guide and customised vehicle.

Mokoro Safaris
A popular day trip for visitors to the Okavango Delta is a day spent in a mokoro. Take a packed lunch or we can provide one for you, and explore the lower eastern delta with your guide.
We start with an early morning vehicle transfer to the buffalo fence where the mokoro station is located. Here is when you will meet your community guide.
Your guide will take you further into the delta where he will stop on an island for a bush walk and lunch, before returning to the mokoro station by 4pm where we will collect you.
We also offer self – catered and fully catered two or three day mokoro excursions.
Inner Delta Day Boat Safari
Travel up the Boro River and through the buffalo fence into the lower eastern part of the delta. Explore the waterways and breath taking channels towards Chief Island.
Stop to view any game (hippo and elephant to name a few) and of course birds. Around midday you will stop for a bush walk and a picnic lunch. After which it will be time for the return leg to reach Maun by 5pm.
