Whilst most African countries offer a variety of landscapes, nowhere are the contrasts as marked as they are in Botswana. In the north-west, the Okavango Delta, produced by a river that defies the laws of nature by flowing inland, is one of the richest ecosystems in the world, contrasting with the endless salty Makgadikgadi Pans and the Kalahari Desert where wildlife has adapted to survive the parched dryness.
