5-Day Tsodilo Hills

You will be collected from the airport. Meet with your safari guide briefly in Maun before departing for the Tsodilo Hills. Maun to Tsodilo Hills takes about 3-4 hours depending on what you see along the road; arrive late afternoon and select to drive to the hills. There is a small museum and an airport near the campsite. For thousands of years, people have painted and performed rituals on the Tsodilo Hills. UNESCO estimates that the hills contain 500 distinct sites representing thousands of years of human occupation. The hills' rock art has been related to the indigenous hunter-gatherers. During our two-night stay, we enjoyed hiking, rock art viewing, a tour of the Tsodilo Museum, and cultural events with the adjacent Basarwa village (pre-arranged).

Accommodation: Low-cost camping
