Botswana is one of the few unspoilt environments left in the world that offers an unequalled opportunity to observe Africa's diverse wildlife - ranging from big game to birdlife, insects and reptiles. From national parks like Moremi and Chobe to the fascinating Kalahari and Makgadikgadi Pans, and the Okavango Delta with its thirteen thousand square kilometres of waterways, Botswana is all about the great outdoors. This guide, fully updated and now in its third edition, caters for both organised and private tours by providing detailed planning and route descriptions, advice on where to stay and what to pack, as well as vital information on climate, off-road driving, and what to do in emergencies. Descriptions of Botswana's famed nature reserves and national parks include details of flora, fauna and geology, historical features and comprehensive maps. Gaborone, Maun, Francistown and Lobatse are comprehensively described, and some 52 suggested self-drive routes for both two- and four-wheel drive vehicles are included. African Adventurer's guide: Botswana is a handbook for anyone considering a journey through this magnificent country.
