Botswana is a top choice as a safari destination with its great game viewing
in open vehicles, uncrowded wildlife areas and small intimate camps. Most of
the country is near-desert, with the Kalahari dominating the western and
southern part of the country. The Okavango Delta is a incredible wetland within
the desert, receiving its water from rain falling over a thousand kilometers
away, and sustaining a huge diversity of plant and animal life. In the
north-east, the Chobe and Linyanti Parks are renowned for their predators and
large concentrations of game. Elephants at
Chobe National Park are the largest in body size of all living elephants and they number about
120,000. A landlocked country, twice the size of Arizona, it is stable and
prosperous, and has blossomed since independence from Britain in 1966. It is
Africa's longest continuous democracy and one of the world's biggest diamond
producers. Botswana is fast earning a reputation as Africa's finest safari
destination and, as far as wildlife is concerned, one of Africa's best kept
secrets.
