About Botswana:
Botswana, a landlocked African country known for its political stability and multi- party democracy, is widely regarded as having some of the best wilderness and wildlife areas on the African Continent. With a full 38 percent of its total land area devoted to national parks, reserves and wildlife management areas – for mostly part unfenced – allowing animals to roam wildly and free – travelling through many parts of the country has a feeling of moving through an immense nature wonderland.
