Home to large populations of wildlife, rugged national parks, wetlands alive with birds and one of the world’s largest deltas, Botswana’s bounty of natural treasures is remarkable.
With winter sunshine, a temperate climate and golden sunsets, it’s no wonder most locals have beaming smiles - they’re surrounded by some of Mother Nature’s greatest triumphs.

This was our second experience with Intrepid and our expectations were high as we had such a fine time on our journey through Jordan earlier this year. Our recent trip through Botswana, Zimbabwe and S. Africa was outstanding , thanks to the enthusiasm our our crew ( Rene, Shadrack and Somkele ). They worked hard to ensure we had the most enjoyable experience possible. The wildlife viewing of elephants, giraffes , rhinos , hippos, lions, etc etc etc was astounding. We are relishing our memories as we sit here back at home , dreaming of adventures, both past and future......

Okavango & Beyond is an amazing opportunity to visit incredible landscapes and learn about southern Africa - a region unlike any other in the world. Come with an open and inquisitive mind and an adventurous energy, and you'll get a lot from this trip. Definitely one I will remember forever!
