Champagne Experience

Remote Palm Island Experience

A scenic flight over this unique wetland offers a memorable experience and a new perspective. Rainwater travels from the Angolan highlands before spreading over Kalahari sands to form the world’s largest inland delta. Expect to find an abundance of wildlife roaming about these incredible panoramic vistas.

Halfway through your scenic flight the pilot will find a deserted palm island where you can enjoy a peaceful break to soak in your surroundings whilst sipping on your champagne.

Embrace the unforgettable surroundings and wildlife as you make your way back to camp.

Twice in a lifetime experience! We booked Helicopter Horizons from home and made a reservation for a 1 hour flight with landing in the delta with champagne. I made once a flight over the delta and this was the second time. The check-in plus security at the airport was very easy (take your passport with you) and as we arrived at the helicopter the doors were removed for a better sight and making photos easier.
The flying altitude is about 30 metres so you can spot the animals very well. We took the flight at 5pm so the light and the views were stunning. We saw a lot of animals and the pilot knew what he was doing. We landed in the middle of the delta what was truly unique because there is nobody around you, only wild animals.
It is expensive but more than worth it, for the most a once in a lifetime experience which should not lack your bucketlist when in Maun!

Best helicopter photo flight Absolute must. Experienced pilots with lots of info on nature and Delta. Great for photographers as doors can be taken off for taking photos

Magnificent. Life has gotten in the way of me writing this review as our flight was in June 2022 but better late than never ..
Our trip was originally booked for 2020 but as for many others C19 had other plans for us. HH rescheduled without any issues and for that we were grateful. At all times correspondence was swift.
To the flight itself Unforgetable, one of those experiences which will last us a lifetime. Our pilot was a lovely young man called Dylan, professional and friendly. We had the sunset trip with a sundowner stop. We had Okavango "The Sentinal" Gin rather than Champagne, we much prefer gin and the locally made gin is delicious.
We had doors off the helicopter so that we were able to take photos. The scenery, the sunset brought me to tears. Stunning, simply stunning. It might be a wee bit costly but as we get to our twilight years and realise that you have to live for today as tomorrow is never certain, I say do it now. You won't regret it.
