About this experience

Experience Gaborone through eyes of a local. Thank you for trusting us with your Gaborone adventure... During our time together we move around the city with some stop overs and drive through locations sharing the Botswana story through the city. Get the chance to taste our indigenous fruit (optional and seasonal) and experience art in the making. On the surface its a typical city with its afro-western style. We discover what makes the diamond capital a special place for locals and visitors alike.
Don't shy away from sharing your interests so we can try incorporate them into your tour time if possible at no extra charge... Its more than sight seeing, we are your story tellers sharing our lives, the lives of our people and the beauty that is Botswana.
As on optional extra for group bookings, minimum 3 people, you can consider a short jewellery making, or painting class during the tour. Message for more on this...
