Okavango Delta, Botswana

The Okavango - a river that rises in Angola but never reaches the sea - is an awe-inspiring spectacle. It mostly drains into a vast expanse of the Kalahari Basin which straddles Botswana and neighbouring Namibia. The annual influx of crystal clear water provides a haven for rich concentrations of wildlife of all kinds.

Makgadikgadi Pans National Park, Botswana

Botswana's Boteti River forms one of the boundaries of the Makgadikgadi Pans and Nxai Pan national parks, the latter of which is home to one of the largest populations of zebra in Africa. In 2009, after 20 dry years, the river began flowing again and it's now once again a great place to see African wildlife up close.
