I’ve been privileged enough to travel the world, yet if you have a passion for animals, photography and the outdoors like me, no destination can outshine Africa & Antarctica.
Testimonials
"We cannot emphasize enough how happy we were to be with Horizon as we witnessed the treatment some travellers received from their tour companies. Our tour director was great during the tour, however he was absolutely outstanding in his concern and treatment of the group during our unexpected stay in Amsterdam."

Botswana Travel Info
Formerly known as Bechaunaland, a British protectorate, Botswana gained independence in September 1966. Botswana is most famous for its two sublime game parks, the Okavango Delta and Chobe reserve. The Okavango is the world's largest inland delta and has no outlet to the sea - baffling early explorers. It turns out that the massive volume of waters simply disappear into the Kalahari Desert, which covers 70% of Botswana's land surface. This unexpectedly lush swamp in the midst of scorching desert is a magnet for wild game and birds. Nearby Chobe reserve is famous for its elephants, the world's largest.
Maun is the tourism hub of the country, with the capitol of Gaborone located on the southern border. Botswana is a rare country in Africa, with no civil unrest, balanced budgets, working democracy, and one of the world's fastest growing economies. It is also the world's largest producer of diamonds and is twice the size of the United Kingdom - yet only has a population of 1.9 million people. Since independence it has had one of the fastest growth rates in per capita income in the world. Botswana's people, truly unique landscapes and game are hugely impressive, it is well worth a visit.
