Travel Areas of Botswana

Botswana is divided up into 10 administrative regions, but for the Botswana safari traveller it is more useful to use broader geographical divisions.

Most visitors head for the northern third of Botswana- this is where you will find the great parks and reserves: Chobe and Moremi Game Reserve, as well as the world famous Okavango Delta. This is a sparsely populated region with huge areas of wilderness, enigmatic rivers and swamps, and massive concentrations of wildlife.

The adventurer may want to explore the central region of Botswana where remote and rarely visited parks and reserves of the challenging Kalahari grasslands await.

The dry south-west is classic Kalahari country and far off the beaten track while extensive cattle ranching takes place in Botswana's west.

Eighty percent of the population lives in the more fertile and better-watered south-east crescent, home to Botswana's capital- Gaborone- and the major urban centres.
