Eco - tourism has become one of the most popular and socially accepted forms of utilizing natural resources, with conservation of species and their habitats being a primary objective. Countries in Southern Africa are realizing that there is vast revenue to be earned by simply protecting their natural resources.

Botswana is one of the African countries which has managed to maintain its exclusivity and vast areas of untouched wilderness. It is a landlocked country roughly the size of France or Texas and has become one of the fastest developing nations in the world.

Botswana is a democracy that has never experienced political turmoil or unrest. Poaching and corruption are virtually non-existent, ensuring travelers the safest, most rewarding destination with the warmest welcome on the continent. The offical policy of Botswana's government in regard to tourism is one of high quality/low density, with strick standards and controls to assure visitors the most fulfilling experience possible.

One of the best ways to see this beautiful country is on a camping safari! Offering an above average level of comfort you will arrive at your campsite to tents equipped with camp beds, mattresses, and clean sheets! They are completely insect and waterproof.
