Botswana is one of Africa’s most remarkable destinations for wildlife, conservation, and culture. It has the highest concentration of elephants left in Africa, the largest African wild dog population and one of only nine viable lion populations on the continent. Botswana is also home to one of the oldest cultures on earth - the San Bushmen.

Travel to a remote San Bushmen village (which few tourists see) and spend two nights interacting with the villagers, learning about their customs, daily lives, and the challenges of living in the harsh Kalahari Desert. You'll join them around their evening campfires and learn about the local environment on a bush walk. The Khoisan speaking people are the oldest link with our past. Thankfully, and partly due to people like yourselves visiting the region, there is an incentive for the people to maintain their language and culture in a dignified manner.

Next, you’ll travel to the Tsodilo Hills World Heritage Site, a sacred place to the San Bushmen and one of the best sites for ancient Bushmen rock art.  Finally, spend six nights camping in the wildlife-rich Moremi Game Reserve and Khwai River Concession.

Accommodation will be in a lodge while in Maun. On the road, the camp staff will set up mobile safari campsites, which are comfortable dome tents with cots and an en-suite private toilet/shower. We feel camping is the best way to experience the African wilderness. While the camp staff takes care of all the chores, you will be immersed in the bush and surrounded by the sights and sounds of Botswana's abundant wildlife.

As this is a sample itinerary, GrassTrack Safaris can adjust any aspect of this safari.  We can add on more nights at the San Bushmen village or replace the mobile camps with lodges or tented camps.
