Botswana is a truly incredible travel destination, one of the best in Africa, and is popular for being one of the world’s least crowded countries, meaning you can have a relaxing, peaceful holiday here. In fact, 45% of the land in Botswana has been set aside for conservation, meaning your noisiest neighbours might be the elephants!
This swathe of land has been popular since humans existed. Deep in the Kalahari Desert is the Louvre of the Desert. The desert boasts the largest collection of rock art in the world, with over 4,500 paintings strewn across rock formations dating back over 100,000 years.

VISIT ONE OF THE LARGEST SALT DESERTS IN THE WORLD!
Looking for the perfect way to wind down after all the wildlife spotting? Head to the Makgadikgadi Salt Pans. This incredible place is among the largest salt deserts in the world. It used to be one giant Salt Lake before it dried up around 4,000 years ago. Only small parts of the Northern salt pan get flooded during the rainy season attracting vibrant residents, the flamingos, for a short amount of the year. The salt pans are the perfect place to sleep under the twinkling stars and observe the magical Milky Way.
