Maun: Here is why we keep coming back

No Image

Maun is a very special place. The Botswana Tourism Organisation (BTO) describes it as the ‘Gateway to the Okavango Delta’ - an obvious fact that has nothing to do with what really Maun is to those that have experienced the place.

The thing is, you should not visit Maun to ‘see’ the place. You must ‘experience’ it. It is in the way it makes us feel when we are there. There are few things to ‘see’ in Maun, so do not pack your camera hoping to catch incredible sights in pictures. No, there are no elephants roaming on Tawana Road or at New Mall and you will not hear lions roaring at Sedie.

My love for Maun is well documented. I have awesome and deep memories in that place and no one should dare argue when I state that Maun is a very special place – not just a gateway to a special place.
