AGP Executive Report

Last update: 11 hours ago

UK Travel Rules: Botswana is listed among countries whose citizens now need a visa to visit the UK, a change worth checking before planning a trip. Safari Costs: New booking data puts Botswana among the most expensive safari destinations, despite South Africa leading bookings on affordability. Okavango Safety: A newlywed’s account of her husband’s hippo attack on a mokoro outing is a stark reminder to follow guides’ instructions and keep clear of wildlife. Overlanding: Two travellers stranded on the Makgadikgadi Salt Pans walked about 70km for help after their Land Rover sank, underscoring the need for careful route planning and emergency preparation. Rural Connectivity: A P34.5 million broadband project has added coverage sites along the Trans-Kalahari Highway, with further upgrades planned to improve access for travellers and rural communities.
