About Botswana

Botswana is one of Africa’s last strongholds for truly wild spaces. With much of its land set aside for conservation, it’s a country where wildlife still moves freely, often over long distances. The Okavango Delta transforms each year with floodwaters from Angola, drawing animals into a shifting wetland unlike any other. Savuti is drier and more dramatic, famous for its predators, while the Chobe River supports some of Africa's highest concentrations of elephants. Together, these regions offer a striking contrast in landscapes that create compelling settings for the photography.

Why this destination is perfect for you

A safari in Botswana still feels like an adventure. You're deep in the wild, often far from any signs of civilization, where nature—not people—sets the pace. The terrain can be challenging, and camps are intimate and remote, often accessible only by air. But the rewards for stepping into Botswana's wilderness are real. If you're drawn to the idea of venturing off the grid into raw, untamed wilderness, Botswana offers that rare kind of freedom.
