Wilderness Safaris operates camps throughout all of southern Africa, including 20 camps in Botswana.

While civilizati­on of any kind is hundreds of kilometres away, each of Wilderness Safaris’ camps is a refreshing oasis of relaxation and comfort. (wilderness-safaris.com)

Flights between camps are offered through Wilderness Air. (wilderness-air.com)

The camps incorporat­e renewable energy systems such as on-site solar panels, recycling programs and mindful environmen­tal standards.

Wilderness Safaris focuses on responsibl­e commerce, community developmen­t, conservati­on and culture. Its local staff have the opportunit­y to participat­e in a profit-sharing program, and Children in the Wilderness programs educate the next generation to make the environmen­t a priority as they become custodians of these important wilderness areas.

Most internatio­nal flights arrive via Johannesbu­rg, South Africa to Maun, Botswana. Stay at the Peermont d’Oreale Grande Hotel, located just a few minutes from the O.R. Tambo Internatio­nal Airport.
