Botswana

Overview

Often referred to as the "Switzerland of Africa," Botswana is one of the safest and most stable countries on the continent. With a small, friendly population and a strong focus on conservation, it’s a flagship destination for ethical safari experiences. Our hunting takes place on a privately owned 25,000-acre ranch boasting over 5,000 animals — making it a premier location for plains game hunting. Accommodation options at Lotsane include a luxurious lodge designed to satisfy even the most discerning hunters, as well as an upmarket bush camp for those seeking a deeper connection with the African wilderness. Located just 350 km from Gaborone, the camp is easily accessible via a comfortable three-hour drive. Charter flights from Johannesburg are also available on request. For those interested in extending their adventure, excellent fishing opportunities are available before or after your hunt.
