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!
Botswanas parks are close to the nature. The accomodation has a very good standard. The service excelent.

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.

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.
Huge variety of habitats from the massive Mgadikadi pan & the Kalahari, to the incredible Chobe reserve and of course the unique Okavavgo Delta.
Botswana is a "trip of a lifetime," but one that I need to repeat, because, the people and the land have gotten under my skin. For the first time, I "get" Africa. Photos and movies can't do it full justice. Its not really sightseeing so much as it's an experience, unlike any that I've ever had before.
