Bordered by South Africa, Zimbabwe, Zambia, and Namibia, Botswana is a country of striking physical beauty contrasted by incredible bio-diversity. This land of desert and delta is home to some of the most extraordinary eco-systems on earth and is a paradise for nature-lovers and wildlife enthusiasts.
Botswana is known as one of the last untouched places in Africa. A land of timeless beauty, it teems with wildlife and for that reason alone, it is not to be missed in ones' African itinerary. What sets Botswana apart from other Southern African countries is the concept of "low-volume" tourism. Most of our recommended properties are set on vast, private concessions that are measured in miles, not acres. With capacities restricted in many cases to twenty guests or less, it is easy to feel as if you have "the entire place" to yourself.
