Travel News from Southern Africa - Post Covid

The team at Inspiring African Travel have been busy at work as international arrivals to Africa are growing by the day. This is great news for us all. In this podcast episode we share some news from Botswana and surrounding countries. How are guests getting in and out of the countries? How are they getting their PCR tests in remote camps and lodges? We share with you our experience on the safari industry in Southern Africa as we open up and what to expect when you get here.

As we have been fortunate enough to spend some weekends and time away we also share some of the breathtaking places we’ve seen around Botswana as we take you on a virtual journey from the remote corner of the Makgadikgadi Pans to the well renowned Chobe National Park and into the Okavango Delta.

There is a video version of the podcast on our youtube channel or social media @InspiringAfricanTravel
