Car & Motorcycle
The direct route between Kasane and Maun is only accessible by 4WD, and may be al-
most impassable after heavy rains. Also remember that there is nowhere along the
Kasane-Maun road to buy fuel, food or drinks, or to get vehicle repairs. All other traffic
between Kasane and Maun travels via Nata, a road which is, mercifully, being upgraded
as we write.
Getting Around
To/From the Airport
Maun airport is close to the town centre, so taxis rarely bother hanging around the termin-
al when planes arrive. If you have prebooked accommodation at an upmarket hotel or
lodge in Maun or the Okavango Delta, make sure it provides a (free) courtesy minibus.
Otherwise, walk about 300m down Airport Rd to Sir Seretse Khama Rd and catch a
combi (around P40 to P50 for the camps in the Matlapaneng or Sedie districts northeast of
the city).
