Botswana is one of the few countries in Africa which has managed to maintain its exclusivity and leave vast areas of wilderness untouched. The people of Botswana have set aside 17% of some of the most beautiful parts of their country as National Parks and Game Reserves. The official policy of the government with regards to tourism is one of high quality and low density as opposed to low cost and high volume. This remarkable foresight by the Botswana government has guaranteed the area’s exclusivity. Extremely strict standards and controls assure the safari traveller the most fulfilling experience possible.

Botswana is home to the luxuriant water channels of the Okavango Delta, one of the great natural wonders of our amazing planet and a bastion for wildlife and birdlife. Wildlife watching in pristine wilderness is probably the main lure for safari travellers to Botswana and with a variety of National Parks and Reserves it should never disappoint. Chobe National Park, Khama Rhino Sanctuary, Central Kalahari Game Reserve, Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park, Khutse Game Reserve, Nxai Pan National Park and Moremi Game Reserve provide a real contrast of Botswana safari habitats and experiences. Here in a land where vast herds of elephant roam free, and zebra feed peacefully at dusk beneath a scarlet African sunset, Botswana safari game viewing can be equally as good, if not better, than some of the more famous game reserves in East Africa.

Botswana: My trip with Jenman African Safaris to Botswana

We traveled with Jenman African Safaris to Botswana in September 2008 and I have to say: 'what a great trip'. The tour was perfectly organized and the group was really nice. Our guide Thomas put a lot of effort into everything and was an excellent guide and driver. We have had many guides and drivers during previous trips but this guide was certainly one of the best. It seems Jenman Safaris is a well respected and known organization in the African region. Our guide and Jenman Safaris even sorted out a mistake that we made with our flight booking and I wouldn't hesitate booking another trip with them in future. Thumbs up and definitely recommended

Botswana: Botswana Wildlife Safari

Compared to other African 'big game' destinations Botswana stands out for its pristine, diverse and vast wilderness and waterways where safari seekers can get a true feel for the vastness of the African bush. Wildlife is abundant in many locations - particularly Chobe, Moremi and certain concessions in the Okavango Delta. Sightings of lion, elephant and buffalo are frequent. Birds are abundant. Boat safaris can be enjoyed in the Delta, on the Chobe and Zambezi Rivers, walking safaris are often possible and game viewing by vehicle is often a private affair.
