Botswana

Botswana is arguably the world's best safari destination. Here you will find some of Africa's largest and wildest game reserves, and landscapes ranging from semi-desert to forests, and from dry savannas to watery swamps, all teeming with wildlife.

Botswana is known for its huge herds of animals, especially elephants, congregating at the main water sources in the dry season. There are hundreds of safari lodges in Botswana, most of them situated in prime safari areas and priced in USD.

The top game reserves and wildlife areas in Botswana include the Okavango Delta, Moremi Game Reserve, Chobe Game Reserve (including Savute), the Kwando and Linyanti regions, the Makgadikgadi Pans, and the Kalahari.
