Botswana Safari; experience a remote watery wilderness
Botswana Safari Camps offer rustic luxury or polished elegance in stunning, diverse surroundings.
A safari in Botswana offers a remote untouched wilderness rich in diverse habitats which you can explore by game vehicle, on foot, by boat, mekoro, horse and even on the back of an elephant. See the hippo that swim and bob up and down in the Okavango Delta channels, and the elephant drinking from the Chobe river and the wonderful Duba plains that supports a fantastic diversity of game.
Botswana is a land locked paradise studded with special jewels just waiting for you to uncover them, the sparkling Okavango Delta with its reed lined channels intermingling into a web to be explored. The Linyanti region highly populated with elephants, zebra, beautiful sable and roan antelopes . The Chobe National Park which boasts some of the largest concentrations of wildlife in Africa, but is best known for its large herds of Kalahari elephants, said to be the largest elephant population in the world (approximately 120 000). The Makgadikgadi pans, a panorama of white sand and salt which when the rains fall in the wet season support one of Africa’s largest zebra populations and many springbok and wildebeest, followed closely by predators, making for fantastic game viewing. Of course there are also the spectacular breeding colonies of flamingos which are also often seen here.
Choosing the right locations and game parks in which to base your Botswana safari will provide an unforgettable combination of big game, stunning scenery, and a real sense of privacy, which is Botswana at its best.
A safari in Botswana is traditionally the best in the months from April through to October - in terms of both weather and game viewing. During these months the game gathers around the natural waterholes and the borehole fed dams so plenty of animals are visible. Although Botswana reliably is a year round safari destination with the wet and shoulder seasons still offering exceptional game viewing and value for money.
Botswana is one of the most stunning safari locations in Africa. With breathtakingly diverse scenery, varied safari tours and activities with some of the most comfortable luxury safari camps, Botswana is the perfect location for those seeking a second to none safari holiday.
Whether you would like to enjoy your Safari from an authentic camp or a camp that has more of a luxury feel, all of the camps Opulent Africa suggest are exclusive in their own way. In fantastic game viewing areas, with knowledgeable guides and relaxed hosting your safari in Botswana will be tailormade to your preference.
Botswana is a predominantly tented camp area. Under canvas yet often built off the ground on platforms you will find grand four poster beds, and en-suite facilities, splash pools and private verandahs for the perfect private game viewing experience.
