In the far north, along the Linyanti and Kwando rivers, lies a string of private concessions that are among the most exclusive in Botswana. The wildlife is superb, especially in the dry season when great numbers of elephant gather along the permanent water, and being private land means quiet sightings and the freedom of off-road and night drives.
Mostly private concessions, so sightings are quiet and often yours alone.
As water dries elsewhere, huge herds of elephant gather along the Linyanti's permanent rivers.
Excellent for lion and leopard, and one of Botswana's strongholds for the endangered wild dog.
Private land means off-road and night drives, with boating and walking in places too.
