MapStudio’s informative and highly detailed, easy to read and full-color roadmap of Botswana will assist you in planning the trip of a lifetime. This revised edition of the Botswana roadmap contains everything a true adventurer embarking on a trip will essentially need and more.
Well researched and up-to-date features include: an initial 1:1650 000 scale map indicating some of Botswana’s best 4×4 routes; clearly marked for your convenience, detailed GPS coordinates; to be used in conjunction with any navigation system and coverage on places of interest, namely national parks and reserves; in and around Botswana’s borders.
The Botswana travel map’s segment regarding national parks and reserves is truly unique, supplying one with extensive information on the background of the parks/reserves, accommodation, contact details, entrance times, park regulations and a ‘to see’ list.
• Chobe National Park
• Makgadikgadi Pans National Park
• Nxai Pan National Park
• Khutse Game Reserve
• Moremi Wildlife Reserve
• Central Kalahari Game Reserve
• Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park
• Okavango Delta
Other well-designed elements of the Botswana map include detailed location street maps of both Gaborone and Francistown (the two larger cities in Botswana) as well as climate statistics for yearly rainfall and temperature figures.
An alphabetical index, a detailed distance chart (of thirty-one towns in Botswana), country facts and figures and a list of tour operators throughout Botswana are also added to create a map truly rich in content.
Another helpful feature is the positioning of neighboring counties such as Zimbabwe, Zambia, Namibia, and South Africa, as well as a key plan of the detailed maps. Other interesting features of the Botswana travel map that aren’t found in other generic roadmaps of Botswana are the vibrant, colorful images such as springboks trekking through the Kalahari bushveld, a young lion taking cover from the midday sun and even an image of elephant-back safaris in the Okavango Delta.
While I do believe this is an exceptional product, pushing the envelope of what travelers have come to expect from roadmaps, I do feel that, in an age where technology is integrated in almost every facet of our lives, MapStudio would find it well received if they were to release the Botswana travel map in a digital format.
