Experience
Explore Namibia’s
Mini Okavango
Livingstone’s Camp is a base for exploring the Wuparo Conservancy and the wider Nkasa Rupara wetland landscape. The experience changes with the seasons: water levels rise and fall, routes change, birds move through the area and wildlife follows its own patterns. Guided activities are therefore part of discovering a living wetland system rather than following a fixed safari formula. Advance booking is recommended.
01
Guided game drives
Explore the Nkasa National Park with a knowledgeable guide in an open game-viewing vehicle. Depending on water and road conditions, drives may move through floodplain, grassland and woodland habitats in search of wildlife and signs of animal movement. Routes are selected according to conditions on the day, and sightings cannot be guaranteed.
Current listed duration: Approximately 3½ hours
02
Walking safaris
A guided walk offers a slower, more detailed way to experience the wetland landscape. The focus is on tracks, plants, birds, smaller wildlife and the natural systems that are easy to miss from a vehicle. Routes and walking conditions are assessed by the guide on the day.
Current listed duration: Approximately 3 hours
03
Seasonal mokoro safaris
When seasonal water levels allow, a guided mokoro excursion is one of the experiences that best brings the ‘Mini Okavango’ positioning to life. Move quietly through navigable wetland channels, with opportunities to see waterbirds and other wildlife associated with the floodplain. Mokoro excursions are entirely dependent on water conditions and cannot operate year-round.
Current listed duration: Approximately 2 hours
04
Birding
For birders, the mix of wetlands, open floodplain and surrounding woodland is one of Livingstone’s strongest attractions. Waterbirds, raptors and woodland species can all occur in the wider area, with sightings changing according to season, water levels and local movement. Birding can be enjoyed from camp or incorporated into a guided activity.
05
Cultural and historical visits
A guided visit to the local Livingstone museum managed by Mr. Linus Mukwata who has a in depth knowledge of Dr David Livingstones story the area and further afield. One can add a traditional village visit to learn about the local cultural of the Mayeye people. The visit should be arranged in advance and is subject to local availability.
Current listed duration: Approximately 3 hours
