Botswana Safaris - Southern Africa

Botswana Safari,  Africa's last Eden. African Safari at its best!

Botswana Safaris, one of Africa's distinctive game destinations. More than 17% of Botswana is devoted to National Parks and Game Reserves. Over 80% of Botswana is part of the scenic desert known as the Kalahari. It is a semi-arid region of grassland and thorn trees. Where rainfall is unpredictable and exceeded by evaporation in every month of the year. The world renowned Botswana - Okavango Delta aside, there is no permanent standing water. 

A Botswana safari promises unique activities, breathtaking landscapes, remote wilderness and amazing wildlife. From traditional open vehicle game drives, motor boat safaris to Mokoro rides through the Okavango Delta waterways. Guided safari walks and scenic flights are also available, not to mention sleeping under the stars in the Kalahari desert and getting exposed to the Bushman's lifestyle in the Kalahari desert. This is only a brief look at what Botswana offers visitors and it all depends on what time of the year you are visiting.
