Huge variety of habitats from the massive Mgadikadi pan & the Kalahari, to the incredible Chobe reserve and of course the unique Okavavgo Delta.

I was living in Botswana at the time of my trip on the Zambezi Queen, and was lucky to be able to explore all around the country. The people are great and there's a very relaxed pace of life. The wildlife is abundant and the scenery unbeatable.

Truly stunning scenery and wildlife.
In general less rampantly touristy than places like Masai Mara in Kenya however as such overall more expensive for the prime wildlife areas.

The goverment of Botswana seem to have aimed to have low volume tourism (at a slightly higher cost) which means you see more wildlife that seems less stressed with fewer tourists. Surely the perfect approach!

Botswana is a large country with only 2 milllion people. The abundant wildlife is not affected by humans as much as in other countries. People are friendly. Tourists will have a great time.

Botswana is clean, safe, and has a very good policy on sustainable eco-tourism. English is very widely spoken and the people are friendly. It does not have the big herds like the Serengeti, but for me, the wildlife viewing was the best of my trip.

Abundance of animals, relative low volume of tourists, and a political stable country.
