An interesting excursion - The tour was great. It gave us a better understanding and appreciation of Botswana. The guide was excellent and provided us with lots of information and answers to our questions. We met some lovely, welcoming people for tea. They were very neighbourly, easy to chat with and exchange information about our respective countries. The museum we visited in Molepolole is in transition, moving soon to a new building elsewhere. Although some displays were therefore not fully available due to the upcoming move, we still got a good idea of Botswana's history and traditions. I look forward to visiting the new museum one day. I would strongly recommend the tour.
