Explore pristine Botswana
Unspoilt and expansive wilderness
Picture yourself gently gliding along the channels of the Okavango Delta, with only birdsong and the distant grunting of hippos in the distance punctuating the silence. Or gazing into the otherworldly desert landscape of the Central Kalahari and the shimmering, flamingo-filled Makgadikgadi Salt Pans. There is a reason why travellers just cannot get enough of this astounding country, home to some of the most untouched natural landscapes in all of Africa.

Wild Luxury
Sleep in a sumptuous Bedouin-style tent in the middle of an endless salt pan, or a remote luxury camp in the heart of the majestic Okavango Delta. Botswana is renowned for the exceptionally high standards of accommodation on offer, with properties that are as elegant as they are unique. Yet this exquisite luxury is always underpinned by a deep commitment to conservation and the utmost respect for the precious and fragile ecosystems that sustain the country.
Learn more about the inspiring conservation work being done on immersive safaris that will take you along the winding waterways of the Delta, deep into the wildlife-packed Moremi, into the elephant-filled plains of Chobe and under the twinkling starry skies of the great Kalahari desert.
