Gaborone hosts Britain's High Commission to Botswana where diamond wealth fuels Africa's most stable democracy attracting British travelers and mining companies. The mission supports British tourists discovering Botswana's world-class wildlife experiences—Okavango Delta's water-based safaris offering intimate encounters with elephants and predators, Chobe National Park's massive elephant herds, and Kalahari Desert's stark beauty and San Bushmen cultural experiences. British safari operators run luxury camps throughout Botswana's pristine wilderness areas, while UK travel agencies market Botswana as premium African destination commanding high prices for low-impact tourism protecting fragile ecosystems. British business interests focus on Botswana's diamond industry with De Beers maintaining historic partnerships dating to colonial era, plus opportunities in financial services, education, and renewable energy sectors. The High Commission supports British expats working in Botswana's mining sector, education institutions, and safari tourism industry. British travelers find Botswana offers Africa's safest and most politically stable environment, though high costs limit budget tourism. The mission provides consular services including emergency assistance for travelers dealing with wildlife encounters or medical emergencies in remote locations, passport renewals for expats, and business facilitation. Staff process visa applications for Botswanan students heading to British universities, tourism industry professionals, and business travelers visiting UK diamond markets.
