Welcome to Botswana!
From the Desert to the Delta
Botswana’s laidback and peaceful atmosphere welcomes visitors with ease. From remote camping in national parks to intimate bush camps, dive into the heart of Botswana’s wilderness. Traverse the exceptional diversity of the Kalahari Desert, which shifts from salt pans to fossil rivers to baobabs, and is plentiful in wildlife, including the rare black-maned lions. Discover the secrets of the vast Okavango Delta, an intricate inland river delta with sprawling plains, and canoe down the narrow waterways past hippos, crocodiles, elephants, and abundant birdlife.
Beyond Botswana’s extraordinary wildlife, lies an intriguing cultural preservation as well. Pay a visit to the modern capital of Gaborone and experience the rich traditions and enduring cultures of Botswana, such as those of the Tswana people, who are known for their intricate weaving skills, lively drumming, and colorful cotton textiles.
