A note from Belmond:

Belmond Safaris invites you to share in an exclusive experience, a 6 night stay at our Belmond Botswana Lodges with celebrated author Alexander McCall Smith!

Share in his memories and personal experiences of his beloved Botswana, as he regales tails around the fire and over sundowner drinks while enjoying a wide variety of wildlife experiences.

Botswana is one of the world’s last great unspoilt wildernesses, with parched sands, lush savannah, and teeming with wildlife. In its midst, the mighty Okavango River flows into the sands.

Please note that Alexander accepts no payment from Belmond for these tours. He simply enjoys the opportunity to introduce readers to the country that he loves.
