Botswana safaris offer a unique wildlife experience for those who seek the true wilderness of Africa. Roughly the size of Texas, Botswana is characterized by the vast semi-arid terrain of the Kalahari Desert, which includes the Kalahari Game Reserve (the largest in Africa), and Chobe National Park which shelters 35,000 elephants. In stark contrast to these dry expanses, the Okavango Delta with its watery maze of channels and lagoons offers an oasis of luxuriance both in fauna & flora. On the mainland and among the islands in the delta, lions, elephants, hyenas, buffalo, hippo and crocodiles congregate with a teeming variety of antelope and other smaller animals (warthog, mongoose, and monkeys). Your safari experience is further enhanced by the friendly, hospitable and warmhearted people of Botswana.
