5 Hidden Gem Attractions in Botswana - For an unforgettable trip!

Botswana wouldn't be the first country that would spring up on your mind when you're thinking of planning a trip to Africa. However, this country is quite the prize. Not only is it often regarded as one of the most secure nations in Africa, but it also offers many things to see and experience.

1

Okavango Delta

Okavango Delta in Botswana is regarded as one of the best wilderness regions in the world due to its immense size and the fact that it is almost completely unspoiled by human activity. It is one of the biggest inland deltas. In addition to being recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Delta was selected as one of the Seven Natural Wonders of Africa back in 2013. The Okavango River creates a one-of-a-kind inland water system by cutting through the middle of the Kalahari Desert. This provides a source of water for a wide variety of birds and other species living in the dynamic environment that is found in the Okavango Delta.

Gabane

Gabane, which is located only 15 kilometres away from Gaborone, offers hiking opportunities making it well worth a visit. However, if you're looking to explore, there's a lot more to it than simply hills. The Pelegano Village Industry is home to a number of the community's smaller manufacturers, including those working in metal, glass as well as pottery. You'll discover some wonderful, one-of-a-kind handmade gifts here, including vases and tableware, among other items. Given that there are many things to do in Gaborone, many travellers often choose to stay at properties such as Avani Gaborone Resort & Casino, which often guide its guests towards gaining wonderful experiences.

Chobe National Park

Chobe National Park is another fantastic location for safaris and engaging in other types of sightseeing. It has a reputation as one of the very finest animal parks in the world, and this is the location where you will have the greatest opportunity to witness herds of buffalo and elephants. You have the option of staying in a tent or a luxurious room with a view of the water, either of which will provide you with the opportunity to unwind at the end of a tiring day spent photographing magnificent creatures.

4

Jwaneng

Jwaneng literally translates to "the location of little stones", which is fitting considering that it is located atop the world's wealthiest diamond mine. It is quite doubtful that you will be able to locate any of these priceless small stones, but it is well worth your time to go to the Jwaneng Game Park in order to see some of the animals, notably white rhinos.

Kasane

This part of Africa is at an ideal location since it is in the middle of the Four Corners of the Continent, which is where Botswana, Namibia, Zambia, and Zimbabwe all meet. Make sure you stop at the gigantic Baobab tree. You may also relax on the banks of the Chobe River or visit the nearby snake park, which is home to seventeen distinct snake species. Whether you're interested in going on hikes, seeing wildlife, or just gaining a better understanding of the culture and history of Botswana, the nation is filled with wonderful sites to discover.
