Straddling the Tropic of Capricorn, Botswana is the jewel of the East African Coast. Its subtropical wilderness is surrounded by one of the most remarkable deserts on earth – the Kalahari, and borders the world’s largest inland delta.

Botswana’s national parks are among Africa’s wildest, characterized by open spaces where nature still reigns supreme. The rich oasis of the Okavango Delta provides a seasonal habitat to numerous species of wildlife including the crocodile, hippo, and antelope. Witness the fascinating sights of wildlife-packed Moremi Wildlife Reserve. Explore the vast expanse of the Chobe National park with its magnificent river front, inland marsh and savannah zones.

On the mainland and among the islands in the delta, lions, elephants, hyenas, wild dog, buffalo, hippo and crocodiles congregate with a teeming variety of antelope and other smaller animals - warthog, mongoose, spotted genets, monkeys, bushbabies and tree squirrels. Interspersed throughout Botswana are rich collections of historical and cultural heritage. Unique San rock art, geological wonders, and traditional art are additional attractions located in various parts of the country.
