    Een zeer goede reisgids voor de doe-het-zelvers in Botswana. Vol met GPS coordinaten die de juiste locaties aanduiden geeft het een geweldig overzicht waar je de mooie plekken kunt vinden. Dit is echt de gids als je zelf met een camper of 4x 4 door dit land gaat rijden.

    The Botswana Travel Guide is a completely updated version of the original booklet that was first launched in 1996.

    The Travel Guide: The author traveled the entire country again during 2003 and 2004 to collect the latest information for the book. Previously, the booklet consisted of 60 pages but it is currently 192 pages thick. The book is very user-friendly by making use of colour-coding, sub-headings within the colour codes and a bigger font to make reading in a moving vehicle easier. There are many colour photographs and 24 maps (apart from the 20 maps that are on the actual map as described below).

    The book consists of three main sections - General Information, Traveling requirements and Tourist Destinations. The latter section describes each area in depth, providing information on Locality and size, How to get there, Where to stay, Best season to visit, Road conditions, Fuel, Food, Water, Distances, Traveling times, Geology, Vegetation, Wildlife and Bird-life. There is also new information, especially on the Kalahari area and the changes that have taken place in the National Parks and Game Reserves. At the back of the book is a complete directory of all Lodges, Hotels, Camping sites, Mobile Operators - arranged alphabetically according to towns. As this advertising is free of charge, it was the objective to include all tourist companies. Thus, the companies that were not indicated, were accidental. Such companies can contact Veronica Roodt at veronicaroodt@lantic.net to be mentioned in future editions.

    The map: The map is similar to the previous map of Botswana with a main map on the front and 19 additional enlarged maps of tourist areas. The Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park has changed considerably since the previous map and the area north of the Park - the Kaa Kalahari Concession - has been added as this is also a new tourist destination in Botswana. All the National Park roads have also been updated and some additional routes have been added in the Makgadikgadi Pans area. Over 300 GPS co-ordinates are supplied on these maps to make traveling easier in remote areas. Visitors are urged, however, to use these co-ordinates to stick to the main tracks and not to make shortcuts. The vegetation of Botswana is very fragile and undisciplined driving will cause tremendous damage. Shell Oil and Veronica Roodt are devoted to conservation and they trust the readers will be responsible in this respect
