A country where one feels at risk as regards personal safety. We walked around after dark. Slightly more developed than Zambia or Zimbabwe, maybe because the clientele were largely South African.

Hands down, my favorite place in Africa. Remote, but easy travel between camps means little time wasted in transit. Amazing wildlife, bird life and scenic beauty.

Wildlife conservation in Botswana has been largely successful. With the exception of a network of 'veterinary fences', parks are not fenced and animals can travel freely. Thus, the country feels wild and open. The desert parks of the Kalahari are vast and quiet, and the harsh red landscape demands a taut awareness. In contrast, the abundance of wildlife in the lush Okavango Delta makes for an extraordinary experience. Elephants move through camp during the day, and lions prowl at night.
The people of Botswana are friendly and hospitable. If you travel to this place, bring with you an easy attitude. Let's keep Botswana a classic safari destination!

The people of Botswana are some of the most friendly and helpful we have ever met on our travels and this coupled withe the amazing landscape filled with amazing game and birds makes Botswana our top safari destination. The care and service provided by Wilderness Safaris in all their camps was first rate and all the rest of our travels will be measured by their dedication and service. We are already planning our return!
