Karell’s African Dream Vacations is proud to announce the launch of its “Design My Vacation” online interactive tool. The product of over 3 years of development, this innovative online application gives users the power to research, build, and price their own luxury FIT safari vacation in a series of short steps. Once through the process, Karell travel specialists will be in touch within one hour (business hours only) to discuss the proposed itinerary.

“As the Internet continues to alter and mold consumer habits, we wanted to take the first step in empowering luxury consumers in the travel planning process,” says Norman Pieters, Chairman and owner. The concept of Design My Vacation is meant to supplement and facilitate one on one contact between client and agent, rather than replace it.

Botswana is a landlocked country about the size of France. Two thirds of the land is arid Kalahari savanna unsuitable for agriculture. Large areas have been set aside for wildlife reserves and these include some of the very finest in Africa.

The magnificent Okavango Delta, home to the Moremi Wildlife Reserve, fans out across the north-western corner and creates a paradise of islands and lagoons teeming with birds and wildlife. In the northeast, the famous Chobe National Park supports great concentrations of Elephant and Buffalo. Botswana’s Tuli Block lies at the south eastern corner of the country, with Zimbabwe to the north and South Africa the south.

Here some of Botswana’s only commercial farming coexists with magnificent game reserves. A unique array of wildlife can be seen in Tuli, with its most notable highlight arising in its immense elephant population.
