Gaborone, and why it is on this site
Gaborone is where most international arrivals into Botswana land, and where a lot of trips start and finish. It is a capital city rather than a safari destination, and its accommodation is business hotels, serviced apartments and suburban guesthouses.
A good part of the city’s bed stock is small bed and breakfasts on residential plots, licensed with the national tourism register but absent from international booking channels. Those are worth knowing about, and they are why this section keeps growing.
Who it suits
- Budget travellers who want to be out of the city.
- Anyone working remotely while travelling.
- Visitors to the Mokolodi Nature Reserve.
