Description:

Botswana conjures up images of wide-open spaces with a 4×4 and tented camp in the distance, vast herds of migratory game stalked by black-maned lions, a San hunter drawing back his bow, and a poler in his mokoro gliding through the reeds of the Okavango. The country is all this and more, for it is also modern, peaceful, prosperous and an example to the rest of Africa and the world. Go and lose yourself, and find your way back again with the Getaway Guide to Botswana that covers it all.
