Botswana is a magnificent, hidden gem.
Teeming with Elephants, the country is a magnificent uniquely diverse country, where your experience will be based on sustainability, cultural interactions and pristine wildlife.
Wildlife will sing you to sleep with their chatter in the distance only for you to wake you up to them having a party right outside your door. Swim in the pool as they come up and say hello. Warthogs will often join you for breakfast.
For Elephant lovers, Botswana should be the top of your bucket list. Botswana is home to almost half the world’s Savannah Elephant population, over 450 species of birds, as well endangered species such as Black and White Rhino, African Wild Dog, Cheetah and Lion.

You will be surrounded by herds of Elephants day and night as they swim across the river, while you relax on your private balcony – you’ll be tempted to reach out and touch them.
Elephants love to make a party out of water visits. Whether they are bathing or drinking, watch in awe as they socialise. The young males will play fight, the babies run around getting attention from all, while the matriarch keeps an eye over their family. It is incredible.
Imagine being on the water as wildlife comes down to drink, being eye-level with the birds as they fish for their lunch, looking up to see a Giraffe.
You get this opportunity on the Okavango Delta, one of the natural wonders of the world as the Delta is uniquely the only place in the world where a river flows inland.
The Delta offers a unique safari experience via a ‘mokoro’, a traditional dugout canoe.
A must do Experience, the mokoro is a private (maximum two people) experience allowing you to be comfortably only inches from the water. Wildlife take no notice of the Mokoro allowing an intimate and unforgettable game viewing experience.
Botswana has incredibly scenic salt pans. These huge salt pans were once a very large Lake that dried-up that 10000 years ago, creating an incredible moonscape scene. At night, there is no light pollution, allowing you to admire all the stars from horizon to horizon.
