BOTSWANA

Botswana’s gem is the Okavango Delta, the world’s largest inland river delta. Explore the waterways in a traditional mokoro (canoe) looking out for tiny frogs, blooming water lilies, hippos, crocodiles, and a myriad of birds. Or venture into the unspoiled wilderness on foot or by open safari vehicles going in search of plains game and predators. Other pristine wilderness areas of Linyanti and the Moremi Game reserves with their array of wildlife contribute to one of the most unspoiled safari areas on earth.

The Kalahari is a magnificent desert that springs to life in the rainy season, activating a zebra migration followed by predators in search of their next meal. The nutrient-rich remnant of the lake can be seen in the Makgadikgadi Pans. Here you find some of the last remaining Bushmen and they will spend a day teaching you their traditional survival and hunting skills during your excursion.
