These itineraries are not your complete vacation.

Any itinerary can include a side-trip to the majestic Victoria Falls, a tropical beach break in Mozambique or Durban, a soujourn in Cape Town's wineland estates. Or even a trip along the Garden Route.

These Botswana Safari packages all depart by flight from Johannesburg. Some land at Victoria Falls where your journey starts, and head south. The majority, however, land in Maun - "The Gateway to Okavango Delta". All tours end with a flight back to Johannesburg.

Luxurious private safari camps.

The varied environments of Botswana, make the country an incredible safari experience. There are lush riverine waterways, delta flood-plains of papyrus studded with a multitude of islands, open and rugged semi-desert, and, finally the vast silences of the salt pans.
And all within quick reach of each other, by light aircraft.

This provides differing habitats for different animal and bird species as well as climate related annual migrations of animals. Depending on the time of year, and where you are in botswana you will be sure to have a unique experience.

Botswana safari desinations.

Botswana safari holidays offer an enticing variety of experiences. Nowhere else in the world can you combine game viewing by air, land and water, and choose between indulgent opulence or rugged camping, in environments that range from wetland to desert... all in a relatively short space of time.
