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.

Other places in Southern Africa are also great, but Botswana was where we saw the most, had the friendliest people and felt the safest.

In comparison to other Southern African countries that we visited there was a little less wildlife. It has quite a different scenery, because there is a lot of water and you mostly get around by boat, which is very charming indeed!

A land of rich grassland, varied wildlife and clear water but dusty houses.

I spent 5 days staying in the Okavango swamps and two days in Chobe. The Okavango swamps are more about relaxation, birds and river animals such as hippos and crocodiles. What land animals are about are hidden by the thick hedge of reeds that line the Okavango delta. We were entertained by a day's excursion into the swamps by being punted around in the local mekoros (dugout) and then led through the bush by a knowledgeable guide who taught us about the health or nutritional properties of the vegetation as well as visiting the giant Baobab tree. Afterwards we took a long refreshing dip in the clear waters of the Kavango.
From the lush vegetation of the Okavango, we drove south east into drier scrubland and were disappointed at seeing our next campsite in Chobe, a barren dustbowl with the basic of amenities. But we were rewarded later that day by a spectacular safari on riverboats as we got really close up to wildebeest, large herds of elephants, cape buffalo and a myriad
Read more of birds, all while sipping gin and tonics.

We saw a huge variety of wildlife while camping in well kept campgrounds.
