Botswana is a truly breathtaking country.

Safari here can be extremely rewarding, with areas of almost otherworldly beauty, fantastic game sightings, an unparalleled sense of exclusivity and the feeling that conservation here really matters.  

Botswana has long positioned their eco-tourism market to follow a high cost - low occupancy model and so to enjoy the obvious benefits of this, does mean that safari here is expensive.

Those willing to pay though will be treated to some really memorable and meaningful experiences. Owing to the exclusivity of the camps, the nature of the habitat and the distances between camps, travelling around the safari destinations in Botswana is mainly with light bush airlines who operate a finetuned and well-managed network of flights for safari guests

Chief among Botswana's many natural wonders is the Okavango Delta. Although the great rifting of the African continent is mostly associated with East Africa, its most southernly rifts and fault lines are responsible in Botswana for creating a basin into which rivers, with their sources in the Angolan highlands, flow. Slowing and spreading in this basin into a delta (or more correctly an alluvial fan) This is a fascinating set of ecosystems consisting of permanent and seasonal floodplains and ever-changing channels and rivers, interspersed with islands and sand deposits.

Factor in the habitats and reserves surrounding the delta itself and which are often part of or paired with a safari itinerary in the Okavango. Such as Moremi, Linyanti, Chobe and Savuti and you have a huge variety of different landscapes and habitats to explore, encompassing an array of different types of woodlands, grasslands and scrublands, each different from the last but equally teeming with all the wildlife you would associate with African safari and a whole lot more...
