What to combine with a stay at Abu?

Many people who choose a Delta camp also like to go over to the Linyanti region for a bit of diversity in their safari experience. In the Linyanti, great camps to combine with Abu are Kings Pool or Duma Tau; both in lovely settings and with fantastic atmospheres. Alternatively, you could head over to Victoria Falls (or additionally!). Another popular choice is to head down to Cape Town after a Botswana safari which could not be easier to do.
