Botswana offers some of the best game viewing in the world with some of the best camps and most experienced guides. This holiday is two holidays in one – staying in two different areas with different habitats and wildlife to view. The expanses of Okavango Delta attract an enormous range of animals and birds including many endangered species. Chobe is famous for its large elephant herds, hippos and rare birds. The combination of two parks provides exceptional game viewing with every chance of seeing the Big Five.
