Travelling in Botswana is embarking on an adventure unlike any other, far from the crowds, in a country that has dedicated nearly a fifth of its territory to wildlife – lions, zebras, hyenas, elephants, hippos – where laws protect all living things. Marshes, deserts, bushland and flooded plains come together in the extraordinary Okavango Delta. Two seasons play with the elements here, reshaping the landscape each year. In the dry season, mineral beauty, star-filled skies and cycling through the Kalahari. In the wet season, the absence of humans, the magic of the great migration and nature in full bloom. Year-round, safari and wonder.

Why visit Botswana with Voyageurs du monde?

No, Victoria Falls are not in Botswana; they are on the border of Zambia and Zimbabwe. Yes, they can absolutely be included in a journey to Botswana. Each has its own iconic sites, such as the fabulous Okavango Delta. In fact, African nature transcends geographical boundaries and often calls for a game of border-hopping. For this reason, and for comfort, turning to a specialist can prove not only justifiable but also smart: it saves you time and guarantees a trip that truly matches your wishes. At Voyageurs, this also means a responsible approach and a wide range of bespoke services.

Travel to Botswana by region

Chobe National Park & Linyanti

Journey through Chobe National Park. In the northeast of the country, Chobe National Park is famous for its incredible elephant population, the largest concentration on the entire continent, with a population of 100,000 individuals! Most lodges are located along the river and offer luxury safaris (by boat or 4x4). We find ourselves at the gateway to Zimbabwe, close to Victoria Falls, and this is also where the wild Okavango region ends.

Kalahari Desert & Makgadikgadi

The Kalahari Desert, the largest expanse of sand and among the most arid in the world, is mainly spread across Namibia, Botswana, South Africa, Angola and Zimbabwe. The Central Kalahari Reserve, for its part, covers a vast area in the centre of Botswana and protects an exceptional array of wildlife, including, among others, lions and leopards, kudus and springboks. During your stay in the Central Kalahari Reserve, you can also admire the rock paintings at the Tsodilo Hills site – a testament to the Bushmen, dating back several thousand years. A journey to the Central Kalahari Reserve is a total change of scenery!

Okavango Delta & surroundings

Travelling in the Okavango Delta. After winding its way through Angola and Namibia, the great Okavango River suspends its course in the vast Kalahari plain. Its waters disperse into an aquatic labyrinth of breathtaking beauty. Untouched islets on a sea of water lilies, reeds, papyrus, green water palms, canoes gliding slowly across the water… you are in the Okavango Delta! Camps set in the heart of untouched wilderness, often accessible only by small plane, unique wildlife, and unparalleled luxury at the ends of the earth. Glide along in a mokoro (dugout canoe) at water level and immerse yourself in these landscapes… The Okavango Delta offers the ultimate safari experience…
