Botswana Kasane Car Hire
Kasane itself is not a particularly impressive place, but what falls within the immediate vicinity is. The town acts as the 'Gateway to the Chobe National Park', and as a crossroad for anyone heading to the Victoria Falls from Botswana. As a result it far exceeds Maun in the number of tourists passing through town.
Spread out along the banks of the Chobe River, Kasane has a number of hotels, guest houses and campsites that accommodate all the visitors to the national park. The town has a decent gallery, The African Easel Art Gallery, for you to enjoy during those midday hours outside of game-driving time, as well as a few roadside traditional African craft stalls between the town and the Kazangula ferry. If you are on your way to Livingstone in Zambia by road, you will have to cross the Chobe River on this ferry.
If you are going on the ferry, don't be put off by the queues of trucks: just drive straight to the front. (The possibility of building a bridge across the Chobe River at this site has been mooted, but a lack of political will keeps it on the back-burner).
