Frank specifically chose these three lodges not only for their quality and luxurious accommodations, but also for their access to incredible wildlife resulting from the wide diversity of habitats. Explore the Kalahari and the Okavango Delta over these 9 nights and enjoy a maximum of only 4 guests per vehicle, allowing everyone to have a window seat. The safari can be done in any order, but we would recommend either starting or ending with Dinaka in the Kalahari to allow for shorter flights. The safari starts in Maun where a charter will take you to the Kalahari where you will spend 3 nights in Dinaka exploring this arid acacia dotted landscape as you go in search of the resident Kalahari wildlife such as oryx, springbok, black-maned lions, caracals and a few other special species. Dinaka is also home to a fantastic sunken hide set in front of a waterhole where mammals and birdlife are concentrated, and the photography is incredible. You also have the option of spending a night under the starry skys on the dedicated star deck. After those first nights another flight will take you to the Okavango Delta. Spend 3 nights in the Kanana concessions, the perfect mix of water (boating and mokoro) and land-based activities to explore this totally different landscape. One of the greatest highlights of Kanana, aside from the resident lions and leopards, is the seasonal heronry, which is one of the largest in Southern Africa. Here thousands of aquatic bird species nest on small fig islands deep in the Delta making for an incredible spectacle, even if you aren\u2019t an avid birder! After the 3 nights at Kanana it\u2019s off to the jewel of all 3 lodges, that is Shinde. Shinde is freshly refurbished for the latest of luxury accommodations and being set in the private Shinde concession it allows for excellent access to year-round wildlife viewing and water-based activities. The waterways are perfect for boating and seasonal fishing adventures, while the surrounding bush is home to resident leopards which are frequently spotted. Shinde concession also has open grassland habitat where cheetahs are known to prowl, making this one of the highlights of visiting the area, although cheetahs are notoriously tricky to find!"}
