Where to go for a Botswana Safari

1. Okavango Delta: The Lush Jewel of the Kalahari

A vibrant oasis amidst the crimson sands of the Kalahari, the Okavango Delta stands as the heart of many unforgettable wildlife encounters in Botswana. One of the world’s most captivating natural destinations, its winding channels, expansive floodplains, and dense woodlands are alive with the diverse wildlife that inhabits Botswana.

An Okavango Delta safari is undeniably an exhilarating experience. It presents an exciting array of safari activities such as game drives, nature walks, boat rides, and canoe safaris. The legendary Moremi Game Reserve safeguards a significant portion of the Okavango Delta, while privately managed conservation concessions oversee much of the remaining area.

2. Chobe National Park: Majestic Elephants & Fierce Predators

Chobe National Park, Botswana’s premier big game reserve, is the ultimate destination for encountering elephants. The ideal time to explore is from June to October when vast herds gather along the Chobe River. Further south lies Chobe’s Savuti region, a truly untamed and legendary backdrop for fierce encounters between lions and hyenas – in other words, the perfect spot for an unforgettable Chobe safari.

3. The Kalahari: Distinctive Parks & Vibrant Wildlife

In stark contrast to the common perception of a barren desert, the stunning wooded grasslands and periodically inundated pans of Botswana’s three Kalahari parks teem with an incredible array of wildlife that thrives in this vibrant landscape. Distinct from Botswana’s more renowned spots, a Kalahari safari offers an exceptional experience for seasoned travellers seeking something extraordinary, and it can seamlessly blend with the Chobe and Okavango Delta.

Embrace the Wilderness

4. Linyanti, Selinda & Kwando: Unique Wetland Reserves

If you seek an experience reminiscent of the Okavango Delta but with a touch of exclusivity, we strongly suggest venturing to the breathtakingly private reserves of Linyanti, Selinda, and Kwando. Bordering the Caprivi Strip, these wild wetlands have only recently opened up to visitors, providing a serene and truly remarkable Botswana safari experience. What else could you desire from an exhilarating wildlife experience than stunning accommodations, like the enchanting Linyati Bush Camp, and exceptional game viewing – especially during the dry season from June to October?
