African Safari in Botswana
Botswana is the ultimate safari experience. A safari in Botswana offers superb wildlife, vast untamed wilderness areas in private safari reserves, few tourists, amazing scenery and even large herds (though not as large as the migration herds in Kenya or Tanzania). Botswana's prime safari areas are the Okavango Delta, Linyanti Wildlife Reserve, Chobe National Park and the Makgadikgadi Pans.

African Safari in Namibia
Namibia is a land of geological extremes and stark beauty.  It is a country of contrasts and open spaces, with the world's tallest sand dunes and some of the most isolated wilderness areas on earth.  There are also areas with Africa's big game, though not in large numbers. Namibia's prime safari areas are Etosha National Park, the Skeleton Coast, Sossusvlei and the Namib desert, and Damaraland.

African Safari in South Africa
South Africa is known as "a world in one country".  It offers cultural diversity, natural beauty, warm, friendly people, and spectacular wildlife viewing. South Africa safaris provide a mix of "old" Africa and modern day photographic safaris. Its destinations are too numerous to name, but the most popular include Kruger National Park and the adjoining private game reserves, Cape Town and Cape Winelands, the Garden Route, and Madikwe Game Reserve.

African Safari in Zambia
Zambia is the up and coming destination for wildlife safaris today.  It offers superb safari camps and wildlife viewing, remote bush camps and walking safaris, and lovely wilderness areas.  Zambia's prime safari destinations include the Luangwa River and its National Parks (South Luangwa & North Luangwa), Kafue National Park, and the Lower Zambezi area, including Victoria Falls.

African Safari in Zimbabwe
In spite of its current political woes, Zimbabwe's northern wildlife areas and National Parks offer an excellent wildlife safari experience and the best value safari in Africa. Zimbabwe's most popular safari destinations are Hwange National Park, canoeing on the Zambezi river - a true adventure, Mana Pools National Park, and the Victoria Falls.
