Hi everyone, I am Olefile, born and raised in Maun, Botswana. I am a qualified professional tour guide with more than 10 years experience in regional (Botswana - national and reserve park) and historical regional areas. Culture - history + food + poetry + music + myth + norms and Nature - wildlife + birds + landscape + conservation + attraction areas, partly drives my passion for exploring daily safari ventures. Through my day as a drive - assistant guide to a qualified and experienced professional safari guide I have grown to notice industrial competitor's unpleasant service offering that's give me experience to: (1) organize tours on a tailor made itineraries, (2) offer short and long (semi luxury and luxury mobile camping) guided tours. I have guiding experience in the following destinations : Khwai Moremi North, Savuti (Chobe), Chobe National Pack (River Front), Makgadikgadi Pans , Nxai Pans , Central Kalahari Game Reserve, Tsodilo Hills. Please feel free to contact me for your Botswana tours Since my completion of Certificate in Safari Guiding Level in year 2015, I have acquired and issued Professional Safari Guide License by Department of Wildlife and National Parks in the same year. After 5 year of employment in year 2019, I ventured as self employed and made my self as one recognized professional safari guide in the region (Botswana). I have attained and acquired Certificate in Fire Fighting and Business Management during my career. I am a licensed qualified professional guide and licensed driver with passengers permit without traditional canoe - mokoro license but during mokoro tours, licensed, qualified and trained traditional poler will be engaged (supporting role).

Multiday tour - Deep Into The Okavango Delta
Overview of your Maun tour
An overnight Mokoro Experience takes you on an adventure gliding silently through the unspoiled channels and clear waters of the Okavango Delta. The mokoro is propelled by an experienced and talented poler who steers and navigates with a Ngashe (pole). From the water-level perspective of your mokoro, you can enjoy sightings of tiny reed frogs, picturesque waterlilies, varied birdlife and wildlife. Your poler will share their local heritage and wealth of knowledge of the area's flora and fauna with you. This is an experience that is unique to the Delta and a must do for all those who have a little extra time.
Your Maun tour itinerary
The overnight Mokoro Experience is a wonderful way to fully appreciate the peace and beauty of the Delta. Departing from Maun, you will head out to the mokoro station by vehicle, where you will meet your poler. After a short introduction and briefing, your adventure will begin, making your way through the waterways, stopping off for a picnic lunch enroute to your overnight camping spot. On reaching the island there is an opportunity to do a short bushwalk or simply relax in camp. Sunset can be enjoyed down by the river before dinner is served around the roaring campfire. After a night out under the stars, you will be woken by the morning bird calls and the smell of coffee brewing on fire. For those who want to stretch their legs, there is the chance to go out for another bushwalk before tucking into a cooked breakfast. After this, it will be time to get back on board of mokoro and make your way towards the station. Your transfer vehicle will be waiting here to drive you back to Maun, arriving at midday.
