The Road Less Travelled: Classic Botswana Circuit
Seven iconic destinations. One unforgettable African adventure.
Few destinations capture the spirit of an African road trip quite like Botswana.
From the waterways of the Okavango Delta to the predator-rich plains of Savuti, the elephant-filled landscapes of Chobe and the vast, otherworldly Makgadikgadi Salt Pans, this is a journey through some of Southern Africa's most extraordinary wilderness areas.
Your adventure begins in Maun, the gateway to the Okavango Delta, where winding waterways, lush floodplains and incredible wildlife encounters await.
From there, venture into Savuti, a legendary safari destination renowned for its dramatic predator encounters, before continuing north to Chobe National Park, home to some of Africa's largest elephant concentrations.
Cross into Zimbabwe to experience the thundering spectacle of Victoria Falls, one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World.
Then turn south towards the surreal, seemingly endless white landscapes of the Makgadikgadi Salt Pans, before completing your circuit back in Maun.
