Botswana: Africa’s Most Exclusive Safari Destination
Botswana is one of Africa’s least populated countries and offers one of the most authentic and remote safari experiences, with a focus on low volume, high quality tourism. The Okavango Delta is undoubtedly one of Botswana’s most well-known safari destinations, whilst in the north you will find the Linyanti and Selinda regions as well as the Chobe National Park.
The south of the country is considerably drier and mostly desert, where the magnificent Makgadikgadi Saltpans are located – the remnants of a vast lake that dried up approximately 1,500 years ago.
