Botswana
Botswana, a landlocked country in Southern Africa, has a landscape defined by the Kalahari Desert and the Okavango Delta, which becomes a lush animal habitat during the seasonal floods. The massive Central Kalahari Game Reserve, with its fossilized river valleys and undulating grasslands, is home to numerous animals including giraffes, cheetahs, hyenas and wild dogs.

Safaris
Combining Namibia and Botswana on a single holiday means travelling extensively on land. Namibia and Botswana are two entirely different countries despite being neighbours. Namibia is known for its high sand dunes and vast deserts whereas Botswana is known for its wetlands and water filled lagoons bustling with wildlife. Botswana is a fantastic African safari destination. Over one-third of its land is committed to the conservation of wildlife. From the Okavango Delta in the north to the dry Kalahari Desert in the south, Botswana has something for everyone.
The Okavango Delta is the largest wetlands in Botswana and probably the largest in Africa with lots of wildlife. Seasonal inlets flood the plains attracting all kinds of wildlife. Elephants, lions, buffalos, zebras, hippos and even cheetahs roam freely. In a nutshell, there are over 100 species of mammals, over 400 species of birds and numerous reptiles. One can take a game drive or simply engage a 'mokoro' rider to explore the Delta. The mokoro as they call it is a dugout canoe that takes tourists from one end of the channel to the other for spectacular views. This is an ecological spectacle and a paradise. One can follow an elephant's footsteps or even a cheetah's prints as you explore. Most interestingly, the Okavango river empties into the Kalahari desert.
Best time to visit the Okavango delta is from July to mid November when the rains have subsided. With votes cast during a convention in 2013, the Okavango delta was declared one the 7th wonders of Africa. Other outstanding parks in Botswana include Moremi, Savute, Chobe and Makgadigadi Pans.
Please allow us to organize your African safari in Botswana to suit your needs and as you plan to visit, rest assured of great services from us - Leading Expeditions.
