Great for: Wildlife, water-based safaris, private reserves & luxury safaris
Botswana can be described in just one word: Breathtaking. From the papyrus-lined waterways of the Okavango Delta and elephant-dotted banks of Chobe River to the otherworldly terrain of the Makgadikgadi salt pans and the ever-evolving Kalahari, the jaw-dropping landscapes alone justify its designation as the Gem of Africa and the pinnacle of luxury African safari destinations.
Remote lodgings give travellers the chance to disconnect from the trappings of the modern world to experience safari as it should be. Whether you’re looking to spot elephant, watch zebra migrate across vast landscapes, canoe through an ancient biosphere or get a glimpse into the workings of one of the world’s most ancient cultures, Botswana has it all.
