Exploring Wildlife Wonders in Botswana’s National Parks with Bush Ways Safaris
Botswana is a land of untamed beauty and natural wonder and is home to some of the most pristine and diverse landscapes on the African continent. At Bush Ways Safaris, we offer a wide range of safari options that take you on unforgettable journeys through the heart of Botswana’s national parks. These wildlife treasures are protected areas committed to conservation, and they offer an unparalleled opportunity to witness Africa’s wildlife and natural splendour up close. In this week’s article, we’ve recapped these wildlife havens below: Chobe National Park: Land of Giants Chobe National Park, located in the northeastern corner of Botswana,
My first safari with our new water filtration system
We have been running our first safaris with our new water filter system on our safari vehicles now. I have been on a Leopard Safari for the last 3 weeks and I was quite excited to see how it would affect the daily life on safari and if we would feel any difference at all.
MY SAFARI EXPERIENCE by Moitshephi Lorato Choto
First of all who knew taking up on a new life and new challenge would be amazing and breathtaking. Had someone told me sooner, I would have long quit teaching and become a translator. I recently started a new job as a translator with Bush Ways and I got the best pleasure to be thrown right in the mix at the get go. It all started normally, pack your bags you are going on a 6 night trip to Moremi
Bush Ways’ new generation of drinking water on mobile safaris
From this season on we will provide our guests on our mobile safaris with clean, fresh drinking water throughout the safari, right from the vehicle. For a few months now we have been working on equipping our vehicles with special tanks and a water filtration system. As we are operating in wilderness areas where environmental protection is one of our biggest concerns, we have come to the decision that we can no longer accept taking bottled water on our mobile safaris. An average safari has been using 70 x 5L water bottles, to ensure our guests always have enough drinking water. Those numbers added up
Our Environmental Club was out in the bush – Bush Ways Foundation and Elephants for Africa
Between the 10th and 13th of May 2019, thirty standard seven students from Khumaga Primary School came into the Makgadikgadi Pans National Park for 24-hours each.

Safaris in the green or rainy season
Botswana’s Green Season: A Time of Renewal Botswana is known for its sunny, clear skies almost all year round, offering perfect views of sunsets and sunrises. However, there is a special time of year when the life-giving summer rains mark the start of the green season. After the rains, the landscape transforms into a lush, green paradise. Here are some of the highlights that make the green season so unique: Photography: Capturing Nature’s Beauty The green season offers incredible photography opportunities. With better colour contrasts from the lush greenery, and clearer air free from dust, your shots will have sharper and
Bush Ways’ first female guide
The profession of a guide is still more or less known as a men’s world. You need to be strong, you have to read the behaviour of animals, you have to protect people – all qualities that are well known for men. But this is not completely true, women as well can do this job, we are now living in a very modern and advanced world where also ladies can become guides… 🙂
