About Maun
Maun is the safari capital of Botswana, the dusty, cheerful frontier town where every Okavango adventure begins. Its airport buzzes with light aircraft shuttling to Delta camps, and the scenic flight out over the fans of channels and islands (or a doors-off helicopter run) is an experience in itself. River lodges along the Thamalakane ease the transition between international flights and the deep bush, with mokoro day trips for those short on time.
