The Bushman Experience

Get Real Africa

The oldest surviving inhabitants of Botswana, and one of man’s oldest surviving ancestors are the Khoisan people better known as the Bushmen.

A few surviving members of this ethnic group are still to be found in the Kalahari and in particular in the vicinity of Bokamoso Farm

The Khoisan tongues are sometimes called the ‘click’ language. An example is the !Xoo tongue with five basic clicks and seventeen accompanying clicks integrated into the language making it the most complex sounding language in the world.

Three days spent walking on the farm will afford guests the experience of a lifetime as they observe bushman displaying their tracking, hunting and trapping skills. The collection of plants, berries, tubers, insects, for food, medicine and poison will also be demonstrated together with fire making and much more.

A night under the stars watching bushman dance in the firelight is an experience which will remain etched in one’s memory forever.

The Batswana People

Get Real Africa

The majority of Botswana’s Bantu people are of Tswana descent and generally known as the Batswana people speaking a language called Setswana. Ancestors of this group of people arrived in the region around 450 AD.

Walking & Cultural Safaris offers visits to rural villages where traditional lifestyles are still practiced and where insight into the true cultures of the Batswana people is gained.

Here guests will see traditional homes and be entertained in true African style.
