Safaris in Botswana

If safaris were a car, then a Botswana safari would be the Ferrari!

Botswana is huge!  It is about the size of France.  However, despite its size, over 20% of its land mass is committed to its national parks.  The habitats are managed in as natural a way as possible and because of this, the animals flock here in vast numbers and thrive.  Keep your eyes open and your senses alert.  The animals could be anywhere; behind a bush, up a tree, refreshing themselves at a waterhole.  Wherever they are, you can be assured that your guide can get you to the best spots.

Botswana is generally accepted as the place to go on safari as it is home to the largest gathering of African elephants on the entire continent.  It is also home to the 2nd largest game reserve in the world.  The Central Kalahari game reserve covers 52,000 square kilometers.  That is 2 and a half times the size of Wales in one park!

Other famous game parks include the Okavango Delta, the Chope National Park and the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park.  The latter may not exactly trip off the tongue but it stretches across 3 countries: Botswana, South Africa and Namibia.

The Okavango Delta emanates in the highlands of Angola, where the mighty Okavango River begins as just a trickle before gradually becoming the third largest river in southern Africa.  It flows for 1,600km before reaching Botswana and goes on to create the Okavango Delta.  It is one of Africa's most unique and breathtaking natural wonders.  Simply put, it is an oasis right in the heart of the Kalahari Desert.
