In many ways, Botswana is a distillation of all that Africa offers: grand scenery, gentle, on-the-ball people, wildlife at natural ease.We delight in exploring the Okavango Delta, a world-unique natural phenomena where a great river creates a huge, lush, life-teeming delta in the middle of the bone-dry Kalahari Desert. We savor the Delta’s subtle and spectacular panoramas, from shady, pacific lagoons and meandering waterways and riverine forests to some of Africa’s finest game vistas.
As Frans Lanting wrote in Africa’s Last Eden, the inland delta’s “very existence in the middle of the Kalahari Desert is nothing short of miraculous.... The very notion that such a place as wild and untouched as the Okavango even exists may seem like a dream.” We introduce GeoEx travelers to a number of out-of-the-way camps and lodges in the Okavango and the Kalahari, each with a particular charm and all with magnificent birds and game to view.
About Geographic Expeditions in Africa. Since much of our Africa business consists of privately arranged safaris, we’re adept at hiring rigorously professional guides with the talent not only to entertain, but also to educate our travelers. Our roster of guides is Africa’s finest (a claim we’re happy to back up). Among our notable ventures: we’ve worked with Richard Leakey, constructed safaris for the Walt Disney Imagineering Team, and helped bring Africa to Hollywood, with location work on the films Out of Africa and The Lion King.
