Auf Safari durch Botswana zu reisen! Anspruchsvoll und nicht unbedingt preiswert. Dafür locken außergewöhnliche Tierbegegnungen und intensive Naturerfahrungen. Um auf eigene Faust im Okavangodelta oder in den Weiten der Kalahari auf Tour zu gehen, braucht man einen jederzeit verlässlichen und aktuellen Reisebegleiter.
Genau dafür schreiben wir diesen Reiseführer.

Schwerpunkte des Reiseführers:

Landeskunde: Geschichte und Kolonialgeschichte, Bevölkerung, Kulturelle Aspekte, Traditionen, Gesellschaft, Glaube und Ahnenkult, Wirtschaft, Diamantenfieber, Edeltourismus, Ökologie zwischen Rinderzucht, Weidezaun und Wildtierparadies, Safari-Guide mit den einheimischen Pflanzen und Tieren.

Reiseteil: In diesem Reiseführer finden alle Landesteile Botswanas Gewichtung; nicht nur das weltberühmte Okavangodelta mit seinem Tierparadies. Viel Platz wird der genauen Beschreibung und detaillierten Kartografie der Schutzgebiete in der Zentralkalahari und den Kalaharirandzonen eingeräumt, z. B. den vielen Neuerungen im KTP Kalahari Transfrontier Park. Ausgiebig sind die Routen kreuz und quer über die Salzpfannen beschrieben sowie der Tuli-Block, die Städte im Osten des Landes und die legendäre Savuti / Chobe-Region. Exakte Wegbeschreibungen und Landkarten erleichtern das Zurechtfinden vor Ort und ermöglichen realistische Etappenplanungen von Camp zu Camp und Tankstelle zu Tankstelle. Außerdem: jede Menge wirklich relevante GPS-Daten!

Infoteil: Wie plane ich eine erfolgreiche Tour durch die Wildnis Botswanas? Worauf muss ich beim Mietwagen achten, welche Kosten kommen auf mich zu und wie verhält sich ein Allradfahrzeug bei Tiefsand, Schlamm oder Wellblech? Verhaltensweisen in der Wildnis und die sprachliche Verständigung werden ebenso behandelt, wie das Vorabreservieren der Parks und das Zusammenstellen der richtigen Ausrüstung.

Fazit: Für anspruchsvolle Reisende und für Autofahrer führt kaum ein Weg an diesem top-aktuellen Reiseführer vorbei.

Zeer bijzondere landkaart van het grensgebied van Botswana en Zuid Afrika. Uitermate handig zijn de GPS coordinaten van de meest belangrijke punten als campings of uitzichtpunten. De kaart is gebaseerd op een luchtfoto, waarbij alle details zijn ingetekend.

The map: The map consists of a large map of the entire Park on the front of the map. On the back is enlargements of six maps - the South African side, Mabuasehube, Swart Pan area, Gemsbok Wilderness Trail, Mabuasehube Wilderness Trail and of the Kaa Kalahari Concession. Satellite images were used and the roads were tracked by GPS. There are 168 GPS coordinates on this map.

Establishment of a Transfrontier Park: On the 7 th of April 1999 Botswana and South Africa signed a bilateral agreement in which they agreed to manage their adjacent national parks, Gemsbok National Park in Botswana and Kalahari Gemsbok National Park in South Africa, as a single ecological unit ? the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park. It is the first formally declared Transfrontier Park in southern Africa, but there are more underway. There were no human made barriers in the past but the parks were managed separately. Tourists are able to move freely within the park and they have a unified set of regulations. Management of internal affairs remain separate. Entry and camping fees on both sides are similar, depending on the exchange rate.

Botswana side: The Botswana side of the park has been maintained in a natural condition as far as possible. The camping sites ? there are no lodges or chalets ? are in harmony with nature without any form of above-ground masonry. There are five areas of focus as far as visitors are concerned ? the Nossob river valley, Mabuasehube, Swart Pan area and the two Wilderness trails (Mabuasehube 4x4 Trail and the Gemsbok Wilderness Trail). There are three public access routes - from Kaa gate to Nossob Camp, from Mabuasehube gate to Nossob and from Two Rivers to the Nossob valley.

South African side: The game-drive routes are mainly in the two river valleys ? the Nossob valley in the north and the Auob Valley in the south. Most of the roads do not require 4x4 vehicles. The three main camps have small shops, fuel, chalets, accommodation and camping. Apart from the two roads linking the valley routes, there is now a 4x4 route that passes Bitter Pan where there is a beautiful lodge open to 4x4 travelers on advanced bookings only.

Where to stay or to camp:

Botswana side: On the Botswana side is only camping. All the sites are in natural settings, completely free of fences, giving one the opportunity to enjoy the Kalahari in its natural state. There are camping sites at Rooiputs and at Polentswa in the Nossob valley and several sites on the Swart Pan circuit and in the Mabuasehube area.

South Africa: There are three very well-equipped camps with chalets and huts, namely Twee Rivieren, Nossob and Mata Mata. They are all well developed and at Twee Rivieren there is also a restaurant. Each one of these camps has a small shop with meat, ice, soft and alcoholic drinks. There is fuel available at all three camps. All three camps offer night drives as well. There are also five new bush camps ? Kalahari Tented Camp near Mata Mata, Bitterpan Bush Camp on the 4x4 route, Kielie Krankie, Grootkolk and Urikaruus, the latter three situated at the pans with the same names. They offer exclusivity, which one is not able to enjoy in the other camps.

Zeer bijzondere landkaart van Chobe National Park in Botswana. Uitermate handig zijn de GPS coordinaten van de meest belangrijke punten als campings of uitzichtpunten. De kaart is gebaseerd op een luchtfoto, waarbij alle details zijn ingetekend.

The map: The Chobe map consists of a complete map of Chobe on the front of the map and there are 5 individual maps of the major tourist areas on the back of the map. These are Chobe river front east, Chobe river front west, Nogatsaa, Savute and a small orientation map. The map was compiled by using satellite images, giving one a birds eye-view of the area. The roads were tracked by means of a GPS and then super-imposed on the photographs. Detailed GPS co-ordinates are supplied for game-drive areas. The Chobe map contains 126 GPS co-ordinates.

The four main tourist areas: The Chobe National Park consists of a variety of vegetation types and geological features, offering extreme contrasts and a wide range of wildlife experiences within the confines of one park. Four main tourist areas have been developed. They are as follows:

Chobe River Front - The Chobe is proud of and very famous for its abundance of elephants ? the highest concentration anywhere in the world! There are also huge herds of buffalo, the Chobe bushbuck, the puku (an antelope), its rich birdlife and, not least, for its exquisite sunsets.

Linyanti - There are only 7 km of riverfront that can be used for game-drives and the road to get there is very sandy. To truly enjoy the Linyanti area one should visit one of the lodges but it is only possible to get to the lodges by air.

Savute - In sharp contrast to the lush Chobe riverfront is the almost desert-like landscape of the Savute. A scorching sun, loose, hot sand, animals escaping the heat by clumping together in the limited available shade and elephants impatiently lining up to get to the ever dwindling water supply. All of the above, offer a wildlife experience unique to Savute.

Nogatsaa area - When the pans have water, game viewing in this area is very good. Elephant activity is rife and one can watch the animals from the comfort of a hide at many of the water holes. This area is not open to the general public for camping but it is possible to visit the area on day-trips.

Zeer bijzondere landkaart van Moreni Game Reserve in Botswana. Uitermate handig zijn de GPS coördinaten van de meest belangrijke punten als campings of uitzichtspunten. De kaart is gebaseerd op een luchtfoto, waarbij alle details zijn ingetekend.

The map: The Moremi map is based on satellite photos. The front of the map consists of a map of the entire Reserve and on the back are six separate maps of Khwai river-front east, Khwai river-front west, an orientation map of Moremi, Xakanaxa area and the Moanachira river, Xakanaxa game-drive area and Bodumatau area. The roads were tracked by GPS and there are 162 GPS co-ordinates on the map.

General: As part of the Okavango Delta, Moremi consists of permanent swamp, seasonally swamped areas and dry land. It is one of the prime tourist destinations in Botswana and offers water activities, top game-viewing, some of the best bird-life in Africa and incredible scenery. Not to be missed!

Locality and size: The Moremi Game Reserve is nestled within the Okavango Delta and completely buffered by wildlife management areas. When it was first established in 1963, it covered only the dry-land triangle but today it comprises 4 871 km2.

How to get there: All the camps are accessible by air but only the dry-land triangle between South Gate, Mboma Island, Xakanaxa and North Gate is accessible by road. From Maun one travels north-east for 100 km to get to South Gate. From Kasane one travels south-west for about 265 km.

Where to stay: All the camps around Moremi are indicated on the map. Detailed address references are supplied in the Shell Tourist Travel Guide of Botswana, which is presented as a package with the Botswana map.

Best season to visit: Winter is the best time to visit (from May to August) but September to December is the best time for bird-watching. The roads are very difficult to negotiate during the rainy season and the animals are more scattered.

Zeer bijzondere landkaart van de Okavango Delta en Linyanti. Uitermate handig zijn de GPS coördinaten van de meest belangrijke punten als campings of uitzichtpunten. De kaart is gebaseerd op een luchtfoto, waarbij alle details zijn ingetekend.

The map: The map of the Okavango and Linyanti was compiled by using LANDSAT satellite images. The main reason for a tourist map of the area is to indicate the localities of the lodges as well as the wildlife management areas in which they occur. Tourists to the Okavango often visit more than one lodge and this will give them a good idea of where they have been. On the back of the map are enlargements of the different tourist areas, which shows more detail of the landscape. There are no GPS co-ordinates on the Okavango map as all the Wildlife areas consist of private concessions, which are not open to the general public. The roads in the private concessions have also not been indicated as this may mislead the self-driving public, making them think that they are public roads. All the localities of lodges were done by means of GPS references.

General: The Okavango Delta is a unique ecosystem situated in the middle of the largest stretch of continuous sand in the world ? the Kalahari basin. This wetland lies like an oasis in an otherwise inhospitable landscape. The vegetation is lush, but very fragile and the wildlife is of the best to be seen in Africa. The Linyanti area lies to the north-east of the Okavango and forms part of the same ecosystem.

How to get there: Most visitors fly to Maun or to Kasane and fly to their various destinations. The only areas open to the self-driving public is the western pan-handle, the eastern pan-handle, the Moremi Game Reserve and the public road to Savute from Maun.

Where to stay: All the lodges are indicated on the map and their contact details are provided in detail in the directory of the Botswana Travel Guidebook which is discussed elsewhere on this site.

Een zeer goede reisgids voor de doe-het-zelvers in Botswana. Vol met GPS coordinaten die de juiste locaties aanduiden geeft het een geweldig overzicht waar je de mooie plekken kunt vinden. Dit is echt de gids als je zelf met een camper of 4x 4 door dit land gaat rijden.

The Botswana Travel Guide is a completely updated version of the original booklet that was first launched in 1996.

The Travel Guide: The author traveled the entire country again during 2003 and 2004 to collect the latest information for the book. Previously, the booklet consisted of 60 pages but it is currently 192 pages thick. The book is very user-friendly by making use of colour-coding, sub-headings within the colour codes and a bigger font to make reading in a moving vehicle easier. There are many colour photographs and 24 maps (apart from the 20 maps that are on the actual map as described below).

The book consists of three main sections - General Information, Traveling requirements and Tourist Destinations. The latter section describes each area in depth, providing information on Locality and size, How to get there, Where to stay, Best season to visit, Road conditions, Fuel, Food, Water, Distances, Traveling times, Geology, Vegetation, Wildlife and Bird-life. There is also new information, especially on the Kalahari area and the changes that have taken place in the National Parks and Game Reserves. At the back of the book is a complete directory of all Lodges, Hotels, Camping sites, Mobile Operators - arranged alphabetically according to towns. As this advertising is free of charge, it was the objective to include all tourist companies. Thus, the companies that were not indicated, were accidental. Such companies can contact Veronica Roodt at veronicaroodt@lantic.net to be mentioned in future editions.

The map: The map is similar to the previous map of Botswana with a main map on the front and 19 additional enlarged maps of tourist areas. The Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park has changed considerably since the previous map and the area north of the Park - the Kaa Kalahari Concession - has been added as this is also a new tourist destination in Botswana. All the National Park roads have also been updated and some additional routes have been added in the Makgadikgadi Pans area. Over 300 GPS co-ordinates are supplied on these maps to make traveling easier in remote areas. Visitors are urged, however, to use these co-ordinates to stick to the main tracks and not to make shortcuts. The vegetation of Botswana is very fragile and undisciplined driving will cause tremendous damage. Shell Oil and Veronica Roodt are devoted to conservation and they trust the readers will be responsible in this respect

Er bestaat geen uitgebreide Lonely Planet van Botswana. Voor Afrikaanse landen net zo goed, zo niet beter dan de Planet. Beduidend soberder uitgevoerd, maar ook met veel informatie voor backpackers en met veel kaartmateriaal. Een aanrader!

The Okavango Delta is a wetland paradise and one of the top destinations in Africa for wildlife enthusiasts who will delight in the thorough descriptions of the unique ecosystem and its multitude of bird and plant life. Other key regions covered in depth are the Chobe National Park ? an important conservation area ? the Linyanti Swamps, Central Kalahari Game Reserve and Tsodilo Hills with their wealth of bushman rock art.

Review:
"There can be few people better qualified to write a travel guide on Botswana than Chris McIntyre...Like all good guide books, this is packed with all kinds of practical and wide-ranging advice - from driving near elephants to maps with GPS references and how to shake hands Botswana style....What's more, even the nuts-and-bolts sections are well-written and make enjoyable reading. In particular, the region-by-region chapters on the country's reserves, camps and lodges had me longing to jump on the first plane to Maun. Each area is painstakingly described - clearly the result of meticulous first-hand research...If you can take only one book to Botswana, make sure it's this one."

Prachtige natuurgids over de grote(re) zoogdieren in Afrika. Vanzelfsprekend van groot nut op safari in Kenia!

Of the world's 4 000 to 4 500 mammal species, about 1 100 occur in Africa. In this updated and revised edition of Field Guide to the Larger Mammals of Africa, authors Chris and Tilde Stuart concentrate on the more visible and easily distinguished larger mammal species, plus some of the more frequently seen smaller mammals. In all, over 400 colour photographs, combined with concise, pertinent information highlighting the diagnostic features of each species, provide a comprehensive source of information on each mammal. The latest information has been incorporated and the distribution maps have been revised to reflect the most up-to-date habitat and distribution patterns for each species. A new feature is the inclusion of the mammals' skulls, grouped together at the back of the book. To aid the reader, colour coding and symbols indicating the habitat and activity period serve as a quick reference to the various mammal groups.

Rijk geillustreerde gids met nadruk op historische en culturele hoogtepunten. Daarnaast nog veel besprekingen van toeristische plaatsen. Zonder meer een complete gids met ook aandacht voor landschap en natuur.

In Namibië, Botswana en Zimbabwe zijn vrijwel alle denkbare landschappen vertegenwoordigd. Van tropische bossen op de oevers van de Zambezi tot aan het rode woestijnzand van de Namib, van naaldwouden in de Eastern Highlands tot aan de steppe van de Kalahari. Het gebied kent een boeiende historie. Ver voordat de Europeanen interesse in Afrika toonden, werd hier geschiedenis geschreven. in de 13de eeuw bijvoorbeeld bouwden de Shona een stenen stad, Great Zimbabwe, waarvan de indrukwekkende ruïnes het belangrijkste monument ten zuiden van de Sahara vormen.
De grootste trekker is uiteraard de fabelachtige natuur: Victoria Falls, de Okavango Delta, de zeer oude Namibwoestijn en de vele wilde dieren, waardoor de drie landen zeer geschikt zijn voor safari's.
Al deze aspecten komen diepgaand aan de orde, geïllustreerd met fraaie foto's en goede kaarten. Een wildlife-gids met foto's en uitgebreide informatie over de belangrijkste wildsoorten die in Zuidelijk Afrika leven, maakt deze reisgids meer dan compleet.

Drie sterke bestemmingen in één band
Zuidelijk Afrika voor de liefhebber. Bas Vlugt reisde opnieuw door zuidelijk Afrika en ontdekte dat er veel verandert. Niet alleen wordt Namibië een steeds
belang rijker vakantiebestemming, aan de andere kant van het spectrum is Zimbabwe als gevolg van de politieke situatie een
bestemming geworden voor reizigers met belangstelling voor de gevolgen van dekolonisatie, ook als die met problemen gepaard gaat. En het kleine Botswana, met maar liefst twaalf nationale parken, blijft een niet te missen bestemming voor liefhebbers van groot wild.
