Botswana long ago headed down a path of low tourist numbers and top-quality camps. The level of comfort and stratospheric opulence at a few of these places can be startling, as is the price tag, however they’re also located in some of the most game-rich areas you can find anywhere with wildlife-documentary quality interaction. The level of exclusivity in terms of not seeing other vehicles is truly remarkable.
At the other end of the scale, adventure is alive and well on an expeditionary mobile safari and one of the beauties of Botswana is that it is possible to combine both experiences on the same safari. No amount of rose petals or personal butlers will make up for the smells and sounds you’ll experience with a few nights under canvas in the African wild. In Botswana we use either light or luxury mobile camps where the focus is on intelligent simplicity; great wildlife viewing, experienced guides and access to remote areas usually off the safari trail.
