A stroll through the charming streets of Botswana’s ancient city will have you booking your next trip. After Gaborone, Francistown is the country’s second-largest city. Stop at the ‘Birds and Game Botswana’ while roaming around Francistown. It is a haven for orphaned wild creatures. This position is great for admiring nature’s splendour.

Another must-see sight in this town is the Supa Ngwao Museum. This wonderful Museum offers a fascinating perspective of exhibits depicting the Kalanga people’s way of life and cultural past.

You can also see the reason behind economy’s super-boom which was a result of the revival of gold mining in Francistown. And don’t forget to bring your camera with you on the walk.

 

Discover the Bushmen

For more than 20,000 years, the immense dry territory of Botswana has been home to the earliest residents of Southern Africa known as the San people, sometimes known as Bushmen. 

The San people have travelled throughout Botswana, and they know a great deal about the country. They pass this information along to their children, who do the same, thereby preserving the knowledge of the land. 

The Bushmen are the ideal guides for trips in Botswana, since they can tell you about the amazing things you will see in this country. A day with the Bushmen guides will be an amazing experience.

You’ll watch water being extracted from a deep underground reservoir, guinea fowl traps being put up, animal tracks being sniffed out, and other activities.

Do you see how having a bushman on your side will be beneficial? You won’t just watch it; you’ll learn how to do it yourself.

Meet with the Desert King

Kalahari black-maned Lion

 

Although kings do exist in the desert, this king is the Kalahari Lion, one of Africa’s prides. A wide range of animal species may be found in the Central Kalahari Game Reserve. If you’re lucky, you could see some ostriches, hyenas, and springbok. They, however, are nothing like the desert king.

Don’t be surprised if you hear the Kalahari Lions’ deafening roars before seeing them. The Kalahari Lions are quite vocal. They keep the desert alive in the nights with their roars. You may be wondering where the adventure is in looking for a lion?

Finding at least one Kalahari Lion while riding on the back of a horse accompanied by Bushmen guides is the experience. Because these beautiful creatures are elusive, they may torment you with their roars for some time before appearing. A close encounter, on the other hand, will leave you with plenty of interesting stories to tell.

Mokoro Safaris

These are dugout boats with no motor noise, these are ideal for bird observation and sightseeing while floating across the surface of the Okavango.

Imagine taking a quiet, stealth ride across the huge water paths of the Okavango, through magnificent water lilies that glisten in the sun, and passing thirsty elephants drinking water at the river’s edge.That would be a fantastic experience, right? 

Riding in a Mokoro safari not only gives you an up-close look at the San people’s culture and way of life, but it’s also the finest silent and slow method to spot animals.If you’re lucky, your guides may take you Mokoro fishing, plant-gathering, or hunting. This exotic treat might be the cherry on top of your visit to Botswana.

 

A Trip to Gaborone

Who leaves Botswana without visiting the country’s largest city, which also serves as its capital? Nobody! Gaborone provides tourists with an incredible sight, with contemporary structures strategically located in the centre of its tropical setting. Gaborone has a posh array of hotels and restaurants, providing a classically coloured view into Botswana’s 21st-century vibe.

 

Finally, if your travel itinerary includes these fantastic events, you are on your way to experiencing one of the most exhilarating trips of your life. Pack your things, buy your affordable tickets to Botswana with Ehis Travels, and board the next aircraft to Botswana.
