" best guides = best safaris ~ a bad guide in the best camp will ruin your safari."

Since the discovery of diamonds in 1967, Botswana has had the fastest growing economy in Africa and one of the strongest rates of continued economic growth of any country. Botswana is the largest producer of gem quality diamonds in the world. Hand in hand with this economic growth, has come political stability. Free and fair elections are held every five years. This is a great example for many African governments. The current President, Festus Mogae and his Botswana Democratic Party were re-elected to office in October 1999.

Botswana is roughly the size of France or Texas, but with a population of just one and a half million people. This means there is a lot less conflict between people and animals, which is a huge issue in many African countries. The northern part of the country, which supports the majority of the wilderness areas and therefore the safari industry, is sparsely populated.

The government has developed and practiced very sensible and workable policies relating to tourism and wilderness management. The maintenance of a "low volume, high quality" approach to tourism, ensures low impact on the nation’s parks and private wildlife concessions.
