Luxury holidays in Botswana

In southern Africa, landlocked Botswana has long been hailed as a safari hotspot courtesy of its wild, riverine expanses and free-roaming Big Five residents. Take to the baobab-lined Limpopo Valley and its reserve’s watering holes, the storied plains of the Okavango Delta, and the crystallised salt pans of the Makgadikgadi Basin. But wherever you choose to wildlife-watch, just be sure to bring your best zoom lens.

Destinations in Botswana

  • Mababe Region

    Mababe Region
    East of the Okavango Delta in Botswana, the Mababe Depression is nothing to be down about. This vast swathe of marshy grasslands is grazed by buffalo, zebra and tsessebe, and loved by lions; dry and wet seasons bring equal drama.
  • Mashatu Game Reserve

    Where forests and floodplains meet, so do lion and elephant in northern Botswana’s wild Okavango Delta. Boat safaris and mokoro cruises are seasonal; you’ll find game drives, sprawling landscapes and conservation-driven communities year round.
