Let us journey together through, Botswana the land of open spaces, untamed wilderness and catch a glimpse of some of the best wildlife viewing on the African continent. Botswana, a place where the wonderful waterways of the world renowned Okavango Delta meets the Kalahari thirst land. In the north-west of Botswana, the Okavango River flows in from the highlands of Angola and soaks into the sands, forming the 15,000 sq. km network of water channels, lagoons, swamps and islands. The Okavango is the largest inland delta system in the world a bit smaller than Isreal or half of Switzerland. The northeastern region of the Kalahari Basin contains the Makgadikgadi Pans - an extensive network of salt pans and ephemeral lakes.Because of their complementary natures regarding wildlife migrations, Makgadikgadi Pans Game Reserve and Nxai Pan National Park were established concurrently in the early 1970s, in the hope of protecting the entire ecosystem.
