Yes, you can cross Botswana with a small sedan car, roads are fine. We did it!
To go inside the parks, it´s sandy and you need a 4X4.
Will I see other travellers in Botswana?
Yes, you will, in Maun and Kasane and the route between them. These places in Botswana are important tourist destinations. But never too crowded outside holidays.
We saw independent travellers, most of them travelling with big 4x4 with roof tent (hired). Also many people from South Africa. Big organised groups of overlanders (travelling by big trucks). No backpackers.
