              Experience Lagoon Camp in 360. Is this the wildest lodge in Africa?

              BlogBy rorysheldon9th July 2020Leave a comment

              Lagoon Camp is at the very edge of the wild frontier. No other camp in Botswana (and perhaps Africa) is further off the beaten trail, and no other camp is able to offer a safe and immersive wildlife experience that compares to the experience at Lagoon Camp. Is it worth a visit? Take a virtual…

              BlogBy rorysheldon2nd July 2020Leave a comment

              Jao Camp underwent an eight month rebuild in 2019. With some amazing new architecture, and some lavish new designs, the refurbished camp is being flagged as one of the most exclusive lodge options in Africa. But is it worth the extra buck? We visited Jao Camp earlier this to find out and were surprised with…

              Why you should book a Botswana safari now

              BlogBy rorysheldon23rd June 2020Leave a comment

              Had your fill of sofa safaris? While virtual trips may tide you over, for now, a real Botswana safari has never been so tantalizingly inaccessible. Travelers are stuck at home and bush-lovers bolted in by closed borders, but ironically, there’s never been a better time to book your safari. There’s no denying it. The entire…

              Origins of Man found to be Botswana

              Visit the Birthplace of Mankind and Come Home to Botswana

              Blog, Makgadikgadi PansBy rorysheldon29th October 2019Leave a comment

              Scientists have recently announced that the origin of mankind has been traced to northern Botswana, in the Makgadikgadi area. Approximately 200,000 years ago, modern humans first appeared in this area that used to be a vast series of inland lakes, and was a hotspot of fertile green lands and water. It was from here that…

              5 amazing adventure safaris you can only do in Botswana

              Blog, FeaturedBy rorysheldon20th March 2019Leave a comment

              These days, adventure safaris are not just looking for lions and leopards (although we have to admit, those never get old!). Botswana is famously home to epic wilderness that will always appeal to nature-lovers, but you can also enjoy a thrilling journey that offers both animals and adventures. The African Wild has a special line…

              Wild Dog sighting on a game drive in teh Okavango Delta

              The best places to see African Wild Dogs in the wild

              BlogBy rorysheldon9th November 2018Leave a comment

              Have you ever heard the surprising sound that African wild dogs make? It’s bewildering. Their collective calls are more bird-like in nature and sound like the twittering chirps of canaries, rather than the expected howling sounds of wolves or the gruff bark of a dog. The sweet sound of their chattering is misleading, though. In…

              Making Sense of Elephant Poaching News in Botswana

              BlogBy rorysheldon11th September 2018Leave a comment

              Last week’s shocking news of a mass elephant poaching discovery in Botswana has taken the world by storm. Initial reports suggested that 87 elephant carcasses were found, stripped of ivory, and that this spike in poaching coincides with a new government policy to disarm Botswana’s anti-poaching unit. The government hit back alleging that information had…

              BlogBy rorysheldon27th July 2018Leave a comment

              I had a conversation with a friend of mine in Botswana recently about wildlife photography, and what it takes to be a professional. He’d taken an amazing photograph of a leopard on a Canon Rebel T5, and with a standard 18-55mm lens he’d snapped one of the more stunning wildlife shots I’ve ever seen. He…
