AN UNDISPUTED HOTSPOT FOR NATURE LOVERS

Botswana's vast wilderness means it’s a premier location for safari holidays. First up, the Okavango Delta is a must-visit. This UNESCO World Heritage site is a mesmerizing oasis teeming with different breeds – and it’s unfenced, which means some of the most impressive animals on the planet are free to roam as they please! Why not explore its intricate waterways on a mokoro (traditional canoe), guided by local experts? Or hire a luxurious private lodge that offers panoramic views?

Another excellent choice for your holiday in Botswana is Chobe National Park, renowned for its dense elephant population. Game drives and boat safaris along the Chobe River provide breathtaking views of wildlife and the sunset.

Elsewhere, the Moremi Game Reserve, which is often referred to as the "predator capital," is known for big cats like lions and leopards. It’s also one of the few places where you can see African wild dogs.

For those seeking off-the-beaten-path adventures, the Makgadikgadi Pans offer surreal landscapes that make for great photos. The salt flats stretch endlessly, creating a serene and otherworldly environment. Or, for a more tranquil and unique take on Botswana, visit the Tuli Block, often referred to as the "Land of Giants", for its striking baobab trees. This area combines stunning landscapes with opportunities for romantic horseback safaris or bush walks (or both!). 

ADVENTURES THE WHOLE FAMILY WILL ENJOY

If you’re planning on travelling to Africa with your little ones in tow, you’ll be pleased to learn that Botswana is a family-friendly destination.

Take the Central Kalahari Game Reserve, in the very heart of the country, for example. Here, you and your tribe can learn about the indigenous San people and their unique survival skills. The kids can participate in interactive bushcraft lessons, gaining insights into the natural world and the practices of different cultures while you sit back and marvel at the scenery that surrounds you. Finish off with a camp-out under the desert stars for an authentic end to your stay.

Nxai Pan National Park is excellent for families with much younger children. The park features gentle game drives and opportunities to witness zebras during their migration. The famous Baines’ Baobabs are a great spot for family photos and laid-back picnics, too.
