Labour Day is an annual holiday to celebrate the achievements of workers. Labour Day has its origins in the labour union movement, specifically the eight-hour day movement, which advocated eight hours for work, eight hours for recreation, and eight hours for rest.
Botswana is home to the densest elephant population in the world. The best place to spot them is at Chobe National Park, where they come to the Chobe River Front to play, drink and swim. Botswana’s government is pursuing a “high quality / low impact” strategy, which means that a Botswana holiday comes with a certain price tag. Your safari experience is second to none though: awesome wildlife and a tremendous variety available in one location!
