Welcome to Botswana !

Botswana is a very special place, rightly renowned for its wildlife.
It is the big animals that immediately come to mind, and on a visit to the national parks of Moremi and Chobe, for esample, you are likely to see many different kinds of antelope, elephant and hippo, giraffe, lion, jackal and hyaena, monkeys and baboons.
With luck, you could see leopard and cheetah.

If you delight in birds, you won't be disappointed, and you'll keep your companions entertained as they witness your dilemma when you try to choose between binoculars to get a better look at a new bird, a camera to photograph another and a bird book to try to find out what they both are !

If your wildlife interests are even more specialised, Botswana offers a great diversity of plants, insects and reptiles.
Some are as yet unnamed, and could even bear your name if you introduce them to science.

Add to this array of plants and animals a unique geographical feature, the Okavango Delta,  where a river runs into a semi-desert, spills its contents over of 13,000 kmq of waterways and then quietly disappears under the thirsty sands, and you have another excellent reason to explore Botswana.

Throw in the Kalahari Desert and the Makgadikgadi Pans and the reasons multiply.
Although the Okavango Delta is perhaps the best known and most visited area, Botswana has a great deal more to offer.
The desert that finally swallows the waters of the Okavango River, for instance, exerts a strong pull, as do the culturally diverse people of the country as a whole.

Striking contrasts and new wilderness experiences are perhaps Botswana's two main attractions.
You will not find many countries on the African Continent that are so different from the urban environment familiar to the average traveller.
