Chitabe & Qorokwe concessions

In 25 years of African travel, I’ve never seen as much high-quality wildlife as I have in these fabulous Okavango concessions. Over two recent days, I saw leopards, nearly 30 lions, dozens of elephants, a pack of 20 wild dogs, and a cheetah mother with six sub-adult cubs.

Safari in Botswana

Anthony Ham

Of all the places I’ve been on safari in Africa, I think Botswana tops the list. There is so much to enjoy and, unlike in bigger safari destinations, in Botswana you’ll see a lot more wildlife than other travellers.

Safari in the Okavango Delta

Anthony Ham

Seen from above, the Okavango appears like a claw, a vast body of water fanning out across, and clutching at, the Kalahari in a vain search for the sea. Every year, rain that fell months ago in the Angolan Highlands filters down through the narrow Okavango Panhandle, then spreads out across the world’s largest inland delta.
