With a fulsome portfolio encompassing all of the country’s ecosystems, a safari with Wilderness Safaris allows the visitor to see Botswana at its best with properties in the Kalahari, Linyanti and most importantly the Okavango Delta. Wilderness Safaris offers the full spectrum of safari experiences from mokoro excursions, game drives, motor boat trips, walking safaris to their renowned elephant interactions at Abu Camp deep in the Okavango Delta.
