Botswana tourism is famous for its mind blowing photographic safaris. Mostly owed to Botswana’s dense wildlife population and the relaxed attitude the animals have toward vehicles and people. These magnificent species that can be viewed on a Botswana Safari – including Elephants, Leopards, Lions, Kudu, Wild Dogs, Cheetah, Giraffe and many more, add to the intrigue and excitement of a classic safari in the Botswana Wilderness.
The Central Kalahari Game Reserve, which Kalahari Safaris borders on, is one of the biggest nature reserves in Africa – providing beautiful backdrops and great diversity in wildlife. You will be provided with an experienced and knowledgeable guide who will direct you to all the places where wildlife are prevalent, and where amazing photographing opportunities are available.
Animals in Botswana are generally very accustomed to the activity of humans and vehicles in the area. This means that guides are often able to get very close during Botswana safari tours to wildlife without startling them – making for many magnificent close-up shots which would generally be difficult to do anywhere else. It is common, for example, to find lions lying next to the road on a photographic safari. Photographers are then able to get up close, and take photos from multiple angles with the freedom of not disturbing the animals.
The vegetation is sparse and dry for most of the year in Botswana, especially in the Central Kalahari, which means animals are easily seen and clearly photographed during your Kalahari Safari. The relative dryness also means that animals are often concentrated around water points, like natural and man-made waterholes and pans – which Kalahari Safaris has plenty of. These locations often present amazing opportunities for uniquely beautiful photos of the magnificent wildlife.
Another great reason why you should visit Botswana is for the great diversity in the environment and landscape. From the rugged, dry Kalahari to the wet and wild Okavango Delta – there is no shortage of wonders to experience and capture. Kalahari Safaris and its environment provides many once-in-a-lifetime opportunities. From being able to see how elephants roam the wild and feed on trees, to seeing how the lion cubs interact with their mothers in the tall grass and experiencing the famous Okavango sunset; you won’t be disappointed by the sights the Kalahari has to offer.
If you are also interested in seeing the wetter parts of Botswana, namely, The Mighty Okavango Delta – this is also possible. Photographic Botswana Safaris are often done in these areas, around the Chobe river. Boat cruises are a popular choice where guides are able to get close to multiple great river animals, like Hippo, Crocodile, Cape Buffalo and Elephants as they roam the banks. The Elephants are also often seen swimming across the river from Botswana to Namibia as the sun sets which makes for an extremely beautiful experience.
