Botswana Safari Guide: Okavango Delta, Chobe, Northern Kalahari (Bradt Travel Guide) Paperback – June 17, 2014

much better then lonely planet guide, read certain sections a few times and it will be difficult to decide which way to go, at this point am leaning to have it all organized before leaving

I had difficulty finding a guide for Botswana and this one addressed the areas I will be visiting. It was very good with health information and did provide a general overview of the information needed before visiting this area in Africa. It is not as good as a Fodor's guide but met my needs. I would recommend this guide to anyone planning a trip to Botswana. I was disappointed that the camps I am staying at were not included in this guide.

a wonderful place. Well told.

This seems like a book for someone that wants to take a self guided safari. Great for that, but not necessary if you are just going on safari with a tour group.

This is a good preparatory book for going on safari in Botswana. I think that the author spends far too much time going over the dangers of safari, but for background on the areas we planned to visit, it was useful.

I have personally been on safari in The Okavango Delta so can appreciate this guide. I wish I had it with me. Robert

Not knowing east-west-north-south about Botswana, the Guide is good for this first timer to Africa safari... especially as a reference source along the way. Our safari operator set up the camps, days, a long time ago. So, comparing the where to stay and how to get there was not meaningful to me. Each region has its own uniqueness. Good to compare what I was seeing myself for the first time to what was written.

really well written
