Botswana is Africa's Costa Rica -- the country is genuinely engaged in saving its wildlife for posterity. After all, they've banned all hunting -- period -- a bold statement that every tourist who would rather see animals than shoot them should support. And Botswana is full of animals -- maybe not the mega-herds of East Africa, but a stunning variety thriving in landscapes that, in many cases, are relatively untouched by people.

What I said about the Okavango Delta applies to virtually all destinations in Botswana. Their remoteness gives you the feeling of being one with nature even if only for a short period of time. Enjoying a campfire under the nightly glitter of the overarching Milky Way is somehow surreal.

Botswana was a very friendly country. I never felt in danger, and everyone was always happy to help you out. We camped at numerous locations throughout the country and never had an issue. Beautiful scenery and wonderful people! and so many elephants!!
I was a bit frustrated by the National Park rules on off roading and night drives.Using private concessions would get over this but they seem phenomenally expensive.
Tourism is the priority for the government and the people. Culture of Botswana is welcoming and friendly. Botswana has one of the largest inland delta and non intrusive and respect for privacy are great.

The quality of the guiding is brilliant, and while the parks and lodges are more expensive than elsewhere in Africa, they are well worth it.

Botswana is a lovely, uncrowded, well run, country that feels safer and friendlier than many of its neighbors.

The whole trip included three days in the Okavango delta, a birder's paradise. Everything was perfecly organised and the tour guide very professional and knowledgable. A journey to remember.

The people of Botswana are so friendly and welcoming, and the scenery and wildlife are amazing. It's so different from other parts of Africa I've been to.
