WELCOME TO OUR NATURAL WORLD
BOTSWANA SAFARI OVERVIEW
Over 17% of Botswana's land area has been set-aside as national parks and game reserves. From the lush green of the Okavango Delta in the north to the red desert dunes of the kalahari in the south. Great areas of wilderness have been carefully preserved to offer visitors an opportunity to experience nature at its very best; to feel a sense of solitude; to see an incredible variety of wildlife species and to enjoy the prolific birdlife.

Botswana is one of the finest tourist destinations on the African continent. The Okavango, which originates in the highlands of Angola to the north-west, flows into and then spreads over the sandy spaces of the Kalahari to form an immense and wondrous inland delta of lagoon and labyrinthine channel, palm-fringed island and fertile floodplain. This wilderness and the nearby game-rich Moremi Game Reserve and Chobe National Park reserves, offer the visitors the best of several worlds, appealing to the game-viewer and bird-watcher, the explorer of hidden places and the lover of Africa in its loveliest and least spoilt state.
The calcrete floors and ancient baobabs of the Makgadikgadi Pans to the savannah grasslands of Central Kalahari Game reserve, there is a wide variety of wildlife in Botswana.
However it is in the Okavango Delta and Moremi Game Reserve that visitors will find unforgettable beauty. In the lush indigenous forests of the delta and its islands, and along the floodplains spawned by this great marriage of water and sand, more than 400 species of birds flourish.
On the mainland and among the islands in the delta, lions, elephants , hyenas, wild dog, buffalo, hippo and crocodiles congregate with a teeming variety of antelope and other smaller animals - warthog, mongoose, spotted genets, monkeys, bushbabies and tree squirrels.
Interspersed throughout Botswana are rich collections of historical and cultural heritage sites. Unique San rock art, geological wonders, and traditional art are additional attractions located in various parts of the country.
The experience of the traveller is further enhanced by the friendly, hospitable and warm-hearted people of Botswana.
Botswana offers a truly unique African experience untouched by the more destructive pressures of encroaching civilisation, presenting a wonderful wilderness for the enjoyment of all who seek to reach just that little bit further into Africa for a safari holiday of a lifetime.
