Discover the rich and vibrant Botswana

The vibrant Botswana is home to one of the world’s most diverse landscapes, with the parched Kalahari semi-deserts and bush savannahs to the south giving way to the wetlands of the north, opening up to the world’s largest inland delta, referred to as ‘the river that never finds the sea’. The Okavango Delta is the sparkling jewel in the crown that is Northern Botswana, considered one of the 7 natural wonders of Africa.

Game is bountiful amidst the wetlands and mopane woodlands that encompass the Delta. The ‘Big 5’ comprising lion, leopard, rhinoceros, elephant, and Cape buffalo represent only a fraction of the wildlife that thrive along the fertile channels of the Okavango. With over 500 documented bird species and countless mammals large and small, this ecological masterpiece facilitates some of the finest safari game viewing in all Southern Africa, encouraging a plethora of sustainable travel operators to impart their own unique spin on the ultimate Delta safari experience.
