When visiting Maun, you find yourself in the TC (tourism capital) of Botswana. The town of Maun was planned to take the Thamalakane River into consideration when the town was laid out and developed. An International Airport (on the northern side of town) services Maun. You can therefore fly into Maun to enjoy everything that is on offer. Maun is known as the gateway to both the Okavango Delta and the Moremi Game Reserve. During the seasonal floods, the surrounding area becomes alive with wildlife. At Maun you can stock-up on with groceries, fill your vehicle with fuel, and relax in one of the excellent lodges before your adventure ahead. You can also add banking and vehicle repair facilities to the list of possibilities.
Maun is a busy town that is growing at a rapid rate and has all the amenities it needs to meet the demands of the growing tourist industry. All along the Thamalakane River there are an ever-growing number of lodges and camps. Maun provides the perfect opportunity to do various Okavango activities. A flight over the Delta, in real life, is a never to be forgotten experience and a breath-taking way to see this natural wonder. For the more daring, there is a trip in a mokoro - a dugout canoe. These are used daily by the locals but are a challenge if you have never been in one before. This is an incredible way to experience the lush reed-lined waterways and lily-strewn lagoons of the Delta.
The Maun Airport is also the hub for the chartered planes that take guests to the luxury up-market lodges that lie deep in the heart of the Okavango Delta. In these wildlife areas there is a huge variety of game including elephant, hippo, giraffe, buffalo, zebra and wildebeest. If you are lucky, you will come across lion, leopard, hyena and wild dog.
