Independent since 1847, Ticos (citizens of Costa Rica) have enjoyed the most stable democratic government in Latin America for decades — ever since disbanding their army in 1949. Their focus on “¡Pura Vida!” has resulted in Costa Rica consistently being named one of the happiest countries in the world. While pura vida can be translated as “pure” or “simple” life, the words defy a basic translation. Some describe pura vida as an emotion or an attitude. To others, it’s a way to describe their way of life. To truly understand pura vida, you must visit Costa Rica and experience it for yourself.
Embark on a once-in-a-lifetime adventure and explore the breathtaking wilderness of the Okavango Delta and the Central Kalahari in Botswana. These two iconic destinations offer a unique opportunity to experience Africa’s wildest regions, with stunning landscapes, diverse ecosystems, and a plethora of wildlife.
The Okavango Delta is one of Africa’s largest inland deltas, known for its rich biodiversity and pristine wetlands. Here, you can witness an abundance of wildlife, including elephants, lions, hippos, and crocodiles, while enjoying activities such as game drives, walking safaris, and mokoro (dugout canoe) excursions.
The Central Kalahari, on the other hand, is a vast semi-arid wilderness, home to an array of unique wildlife, such as the Kalahari lion, brown hyena, and meerkat. In January, the rains bring life to the Kalahari, with lush vegetation attracting large herds of antelopes and predators alike.
These amazing travel opportunities are offered by the Oklahoma City Zoo in partnership with Safari Professionals – a wildlife conservation travel company with over 35 years of designing and conducting unique adventures in wildlife destinations throughout the world.
