Botswana, known as the jewel of Africa, has been getting a lot of attention lately. And there's plenty of reasons why. Here is a list of the six reasons why people are choosing to go to Botswana this summer.
Okavango Delta is an unspoilt wilderness in Africa and is the last one surviving. The 16000 square kilometres of land gets flooded which feed into the wetland of lagoons, amazing channels which are lined with palm trees and an epic collection flora and fauna. This is also where elephants arrive in herds to have their drink for the day. This amazing ecosystem has been listed in the UNESCO World Heritage List. Hire a dugout canoe and explore the area to your heart's content!
Botswana boasts of amazing luxury and exclusivity. The country's economic backbone is its tourism industry. People want to venture into the wilderness and have a once in a lifetime opportunity. Thus, there are many luxury resorts that have come about, making it easy on anyone of any age to enjoy the wilderness without much hassle. Comfort is key to enjoying a place. If you're looking for luxury resorts, you can check properties like Avani Gaborone Resort & Casino for a cosy stay. Besides, there are many things to do in Gaborone, thus booking a resort in these parts of town, will be much more convenient for you.
Another reason to visit Botswana is its excellent tour guides and staff offered. They speak English well and have a tremendous knowledge of the surroundings making it much more entertaining! Most of these guides have lived their lives out in the bushes, and the tales they can relate are truly entertaining.
One of the primary reasons why people book their tickets to Botswana is to view the incredible collection of wildlife it boasts of. There are many opportunities out here to spot the rarest of animals! The safaris here are among the best in the world, and well worth the money!
Yes, you might have often gone on weekend getaways to beaches and the mountains, to escape from the city life for some peace. But the savannahs are something else altogether. You can have an authentic experience out in the wilderness, surrounded by wildlife and trees, without being disturbed by modern technologies! This is one of the prime reasons why people head out to the savannahs of Africa. The peace and serenity felt here whilst getting to know and interacting with the ethnic tribes, is life-changing!
Another reason people head to Botswana is for its first national park, the Chobe national park. This was founded back in 1968 and occupies an area of about 11,700 square kilometres. It comprises of swamps, floodplains and amazing woodlands. The Chobe River is known to be among the beautiful rivers of the African continent, not just Botswana. The herd of elephants that can be witnessed here, is truly spectacular!
