🌏 Destination Overview
Botswana is synonymous with high-end African safari. The Okavango Delta is a rare inland delta; water from the Zambezi River flows into the Kalahari Desert to form a vibrant wetland, and gliding through reed-lined channels in a traditional mokoro, elephants, hippos and waterbirds are within arm's reach; Chobe National Park holds Africa's densest elephant population. Famous for 'low-density, high-quality' eco-safaris, Botswana is a top choice for safari-goers and honeymooners alike.
