Mokoro Trips to Beautiful Sites in Botswana Delta

There are two ways to enjoy the mokoro trips through the beautiful sites in Botswana. This is the easy way and the best way to explore the delta, while slipping on the Okavango Rivers and shallow waters.

It is a money saving way too. At the Crocodile Center you will get advices on how to protect yourself while you are in the mokoro.

The mokoro is a very small boat like canoe traditionally made of ebony and sausage trees and it takes two persons with few luggage. But, the new generation of mekoro are made of fiberglass as supposed to last longer in addition to keep preserve the cover of the ebony and sausage trees.

Local people use it for fishing on the waters of the delta and some of them use it further to get some money too by taking people through the delta.

They know the hard living conditions, so they make their best to survive. As a traveller you could help them by taking your tours on their mekoro and sharing your food with them.
