Home to the world’s largest inland wetland system, Botswana’s Okavango Delta is an extraordinary natural phenomenon thanks to its 5,800 square miles of desert that transform annually into a luxuriant wilderness of flood plain, forest, streams, and lagoons . Experience this majestic, pristine landscape on a luxury Botswana safari.
Botswana is the only country in Africa where you can experience a luxury African safari on both land and water while staying in luxury safari lodges or superb tented camps. Here, an incredible 38% of the land is reserved and protected for wildlife and nature conservation. On a Botswana luxury safari holiday, you are truly enveloped in the wonders of untamed nature and the unique wildlife that call it home.
An African safari in Botswana invites you to experience the sheer magic of the Kalahari Desert, an area covering some 350,000 square miles. Here, you might spend a night under the stars beneath an ancient baobab or explore the Makgadikgadi Salt Pans, one of the largest salt pans in the world and an important habitat for migrating wildebeest, Africa’s biggest zebra population, and greater flamingos.
Of course, we cannot forget about Chobe National Park and Moremi Game Reserve, both nestled in northern Botswana, in the Okavango Delta. These destinations are often the highlight of a Botswana African safari as they are known for unparalleled game viewing and luxury lodges nestled amidst the intricate waterways.
