When it floods, sprawling grassy plains are transformed into a lush habitat for the continent’s most beautiful creatures and prolific birdlife. The maze of complex natural channels and waterways, islands, swamps and woodland forests can be explored from the land, water and sky. Excellent game viewing and splendid photographic opportunities are inevitable—whether you choose to explore on foot, with a 4×4, on horseback, from a boat or mokoro, in a helicopter or even in a light aircraft.
