E-Books →Botswana Safari Guide Okavango Delta & Chobe & Northern Kalahari

Moreover, with improved air access from the US, via South Africa, Botswana has never been easier to visit. The country's wilderness is pristine, a virtue underpinned by governmental commitment to sustainable tourism. The Okavango Delta's permanent waters attract year-round wildlife, now including all the 'big five': rhinos have been successfully re-introduced. Outside the Delta, this English-speaking country offers tremendous variety in landscapes, from the arid Kalahari to lush forests. Riverine areas harbour spectacular herds of elephants and buffalo, and mighty predator populations. Dusty savannahs attract hardier game like oryx and springbok. On Makgadikgadi's great salt pans, zebra gather in huge congregations after rain. Birdwatching is brilliant throughout. Then there's Botswana's rich history, from the Tsodilo Hills' ancient rock paintings to Stone Age arrowheads on the Makgadikgadi Pans.
