Botswana safaris
are some of the most exceptional African safari experiences.
We feel this way every time we visit. No matter that we – my wife, our daughter, and I – have been on over 80 African safari holidays throughout Africa. Botswana remains one of our favorite destinations. The remoteness, closeness to nature and tranquility will delight you, fill you with wonder and revitalize you. The pinnacle of Botswana tourism is the Okavango Delta. It is simply unparalleled. A wildlife sanctuary set in one of the only places on earth where a river forms an inland delta. This wilderness is home to a spectacle of African wildlife that is only rivaled by the herds of Kenya’s safari wonderland, the Masai Mara and Tanzania’s Serengeti. If you love wildlife, then a southern African safari in Botswana will give you a wonderful sense of serenity and calm. Here's our top three choices for Botswana safari lodges. And if that weren't enough, we also give you a guide to the best parks and the best times to go!
