Read about the 5 BEST THINGS TO DO IN BOTSWANA in this article. Botswana is without a doubt one of the world's most spectacular wilderness areas. In the south and east, the Kalahari Desert and the lunar-like pans of Nxai and Makgadikgadi can be found. In contrast, the dazzling water worlds of the Okavango Delta and Chobe River ecosystem can be found to the north and west.

This variety of terrain lends itself to a wide range of activities suitable for almost any outdoor enthusiast. Whether you're visiting Botswana for the first time or the tenth time, there's always something new to discover in one of Africa's friendliest countries.

It's difficult to decide what to see and do in Botswana because safari is almost everywhere you look! However, we have been traveling the length and breadth of Africa since 1998, customizing Botswana safaris for thousands of visitors. We've compiled a list of our favorite Botswana activities to help you decide:
Here are the TOP 5 THINGS TO DO IN BOTSWANA.
1. Learn About the San Bushmen
The San, also known as the Kalahari, are indigenous hunter-gatherer groups who are Southern Africa's first nations. Around 20 000 years ago, they mastered this difficult terrain, honing their survival skills through generations. You can now learn about everything from medicinal plants to folklore about how elk got their long horns and how the world came to be.

Learn about the San's unique culture, incredible tracking and hunting abilities, and extraordinary knowledge of medicinal and poisonous plants on guided walking adventures. This is what to do in Botswana if you want to learn about one of the world's oldest cultures.

2. Game drives accompanied by a guide
As Africa Safari Experts, we take a LOT of game drives, and Botswana never disappoints. The guides are enthusiastic, and there are plenty of animals. This is a wildlife paradise, and going on a guided game drive is one of the most exciting things to do in Botswana. It's almost as simple as aiming a dart at a map of the country. On a more serious note, if you want to see the world's largest elephant herds, visit Chobe and Moremi Game Reserves for a predator show.

Safaris at the Delta Aquarium
Traditional mekoro (canoes) were constructed from hollowed-out sausage tree trunks and used to navigate the Okavango Delta. Almost all lodges now use fibreglass canoes, which are lighter, faster, and more environmentally friendly. A mokoro ride is one of the most tranquil experiences you'll ever have: you'll be gently pushed along while your guide points out beautiful lilies, tiny painted reed frogs, and goliath herons. The poler gently taps the side of the mokoro to warn hippos that humans are approaching! It's the Okavango Delta's iconic game viewing'vehicle,' allowing you to get up close and personal with the wildlife in 'the Venice of safari.'

The Okavango Delta is the world's largest inland delta, and the hundreds of channels that cut through its dense reeds offer excellent opportunities for power boating. Your guide will turn off the engines when approaching water-adapted wildlife such as sitatunga antelope, hippo, crocodiles, and elephants, but power boating allows you to travel further away from your lodge and see more remote areas of the Delta.

Botswana's landscapes are stunning, whether in the Savuti marsh, the Chobe floodplain, or the Okavango Delta. Despite the fact that the vast majority of the country is relatively flat, the sky appears higher and bluer here, the clouds more intense, and the sunlight more life-giving. Bring your wide-angle lens to capture the breathtaking scenery of Botswana.

5. Go Bird Observing
Before going on a Botswana safari, many clients claim they are "not into birds." Then there's the fun challenge of spotting the Pel's fishing owl in a distant tree or attempting to get the perfect shot of a fish eagle taking off. After one safari to Botswana, with its 550 species, they're singing a different tune and have become instant twitchers.

Summer (November to March) is the best season for birdwatching in Botswana. This is when the migrants arrive and join the locals for a place full of 'ticks': pied kingfishers, oxpeckers, black egrets (who hunt fish by luring them into the darkness created by covering the water with their feathers), African fish eagles, giant eagle owls (often found, oddly, sitting on the ground), beautiful carmine bee-eaters; ground hornbills (the inspiration
