Botswana is still considered an exceptional travel destination. The landlocked country in southern Africa promises adventure and challenge and represents one of the last wilderness areas on the African continent. The Okavango Delta, a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2014, is among the most magnificent ecosystems on Earth; year after year, the region attracts more and more travelers and offers safari experiences of the highest caliber with Africa's largest free-roaming wildlife herds.

Africa expert Michael Iwanowski has compiled numerous tips for independent travelers as well as for participants in guided tours. The lodges and camps, due to their unique locations, exclusive amenities, and architecture, are important components of the travel experience and are therefore described in detail. In Botswana, travelers can stay in luxurious eco-lodges situated in private wildlife reserves or experience authentic safari vibes while camping on the roof of their 4x4 vehicles. An overview with three suggested itineraries for three to six weeks provides information on route quality, distances, and the necessary time budget. Excursions to the world-famous Victoria Falls between Zambia and Zimbabwe, as well as to the Zambezi region in northern Namibia, complete the guide.
