Trekking through Botswana

http://www.africaafrica.co.za/ Self drive do it yourself Africa Adventures made easy! The complete ultimate travel guide on DVD to Botswana available. Botswana lies at the center of the Southern Africa plateau and covers an area of approximately 582 000 square km. It borders Zambia, Namibia, South Africa and Zimbabwe. Between 70 and 80 percent of the country is covered by Kalahari Desert. Here the vegetation varies from bushy, grass to bare sand. Botswana has approximately 15 000 km of roads. Recently many kilometers of road have been tarred. The rest are gravel, earth- or sand surfaced, and depending on the season, some of them can be in very poor condition. The residents of Botswana are known as the Batswana and their national language is Setswana. As the sun sets over Africa, we reflect on our adventure to this beautiful country - Botswana - no doubt one of Africa's last real bastions of game. A land of contrasts - from the harsh beauty of the Central Kalahari, to the lush woodlands of the Okavango Delta. As we bade this beautiful country goodbye, we know its image will stay with us forever - and in time - when its call beckons us again, we will return. Again and again.
