The
wildlife attractions of Botswana are formidable indeed,
with such preeminent wildlife habitats as Chobe National
Park, one of Africa's legendary elephant refuges, and the
800-mile-wide Okavango Delta, a gentle paradise whose crystal-clear,
lily-covered waters fan out over the Kalahari thirstland.
Botswana's largely untouristed gamelands can be viewed on
a classic mobile camping safari, a style that will let you
enjoy the tranquility of the bush and the sounds of the
African night without sacrificing any amenities. Camps offer
spacious walk-in tents with beds and private bathrooms,
superb meals, and first-rate service. Why not try tracking
game on foot, by 4WD or a Botswana specialty by mokoro (dugout
canoe) and riverboat, all in a breathtaking mix of Botswana's
most beautiful habitats, from salt pans to savannas. Have
a look below at some of the National Parks available to
