Overview:
Outstandingly dramatic,
Botswana encompasses striking salt pans, diamond-rich
deserts and fertile flood plains which teem with game. The
north, in particular, offers superb wildlife-watching
opportunities, making this one of southern Africa's top safari
destinations.
A sizable proportion of the country - over 40% - is given over
to national parks, reserves and private concessions, where
tourists crane their necks out of jeeps to check out the roving
animals. But Botswana's policy of favoring low-impact luxury
tourism ensures that even the most famous game-viewing areas
rarely feel crowded.
The jewel in Botswana's crown is, without a doubt, the Okavango
Delta - the largest inland delta in the world. Its seasonal
lagoons and waterways are crammed with hovering birds, while
zebras and giraffes amble across vast grass flats. Northeast of
here is Chobe National Park, home to gigantic elephant herds,
some of them 400-strong.
