World Wetlands Day 2023 – a UN Day aiming to raise global awareness about the vital role of wetlands for the planet. This year's theme is 'wetland restoration'.
Wetlands are critically important for ecosystems, biodiversity, climate mitigation, as well as fresh water availability. We are all urged to work harder to protect, conserve and restore these intricate natural systems.

When we glide through the channels of the Okavango Delta in mekoros, we often marvel at the natural equilibrium of all the wild and wonderful things that co-exist in this vast wilderness. Big game, tiny insects, flocks of birds, fishermen and their prey, tall trees and water lilies, as well as curious tourists all have their place in this wonderland we are fortunate enough to still be able to enjoy! BUT we must not be complacent – we must fight for future generations' right to be able to do the same.

What can you do?
• Learn more about wetlands
• Make water-friendly decisions
• Make eco-systems conscious choices
• Pledge to act for Wetland Restoration (See how on worldwetlandsday.org)
• Take action and responsibility TODAY!

RARE Sighting!
Because mole rats live an illusive colony life in a burrow of tunnels under ground not much is known about them. A single mole rat above ground is usually a sign of an individual, who is looking to establish their own colony.
This little animal is on a race against time, because spending time above ground leaves it exposed to predation.

Two French guests were pleasantly surprised to find a sundowner ready for them, when they arrived at Hippo Pool after a HOT bush walk from Nokanyana.

How do you take your sundowner? With a twist? With friends? with a view? Or with a sense of adventure, like these three?

Beautiful moment between a mother and her 2-year old cub.
Leopards spend the first two years of their lives in a close bond with their mother. She teaches them her hunting techniques and survival strategies (when to flee or fight, what to eat when food is scarce, what habitats to avoid, where to find refuge, and much more), as well as other crucial leopard skills like tree climbing and sharpening claws. The cubs begin their training at around 4 months of age and before they leave they will have a large repertoire of skills to help them live their solitary life in the wild.

To really understand something you have to live it and be part of it. We offer a glimpse into the intricate ways of the Bushmen people living in the Central Kalahari Game Reserve.

This is the hill our location 'Great Tsau Hill' is named after. The central Kalahari Game Reserve is an otherwise flat environment, so we're enjoying the elevation and the natural feature on a daily basis. Come and join us for a walk on the hill – We call it a 'Sky Walk'.

There’s nothing better than positioning yourself on the banks of the Khwai river, and watching a magnificent herd of elephants calmly pass your vehicle, led by their matriarch. Fun fact: an adult elephant can hold up to 13L of water in their trunk. It is estimated that an elephants’ trunk contains more than 150,000 muscles.

Under African Skies

Roots & Journeys is a circuit of owner-operated camps, combining the best of what Botswana has to offer – Land, Water and Desert. Each camp in the circuit offers a unique experience.

The company was formed when a group of like-minded people met after a guide’s course in the Tuli Block in Botswana.

Roots & Journeys has only been operating for a few years, but as a team have been involved in Africa for many years, and all have a strong passion for the country, the people, and conservation.

We believe that Botswana is one of the last real wildernesses left in Africa, and feel it our responsibility in assisting to protect it.
