Bush and beach
Float down the Okavango Delta in a mokoro, spot the Big Five and then take a few days to simply relax and do nothing on a beach. A holiday of dreams.
A Botswana safari and beach holiday is the perfect combination for those seeking both high-end adventure and time to unwind. Few places in Africa offer the quality of safari experience that Botswana does - private reserves, low visitor numbers, and exceptional wildlife viewing across iconic landscapes like the Okavango Delta, Chobe National Park and the Kalahari. Whether you’re gliding through delta channels by mokoro or tracking lion across wide open plains, Botswana offers a safari experience that feels deeply exclusive and wild.
Pairing this with time on the beach allows you to balance the thrill of game drives with the tranquillity of the ocean. After early mornings and dusty roads, escape to soft white sands and warm turquoise waters in destinations like Mauritius, Mozambique or the Seychelles. Daily logistics are surprisingly seamless, with regional flights connecting safari lodges and island resorts in just a few hours.
This is an ideal option for honeymoons, special celebrations or simply a trip that combines two of Africa’s most iconic experiences. Whether you’re staying in an intimate bush camp or a private beachfront villa, the quality of guiding, hospitality and scenery throughout is outstanding - and the contrasts between bush and beach make each experience even more memorable.

Botswana Trip Inspiration
Our Botswana specialist, Ruth, says:
“What I love about combining safari and beach with Botswana is how well it works. After days exploring the Okavango Delta or the Kalahari, with all the excitement of close wildlife encounters, flying out to the Indian Ocean feels like the perfect contrast. You finish your holiday with warm seas and sandy beaches, which makes the whole journey feel complete.”
