Overview

Bostwana is perfect for safaris without tour buses everywhere. The Okavango Delta fills with water once a year - you can canoe between islands then. Chobe has tons of elephants, and the Kalahari lets you sleep under stars. You'll find fancy tents or basic camps. Animals have babies in summer when it rains. Most people fly between spots in small planes. Start your trip in Maun.
