Casinos in Botswana

Botswana is one of Africa’s success stories; a country of diverse natural scenery, generous resources, as well as a rapid-increasing tourist sector, captivated by its proximity to South Africa and also by its exceptional game reserves and national parks. Botswana casinos are a developing region of the economy, and casinos have branched out in a number of cities in the country, such as the capital, Gaborone, and the northern capital, Francis Town. Accordingly, the Botswana government has taken great steps to guarantee that the creation of Botswana casinos continues in line with the growing numbers of outside visitors.

Francis Town is the grandest city in northern Botswana and also home to 2 casinos, the Marang Hotel, as well as the Admiral at the Thapama Hotel. The city was the site of southern Africa’s first "gold rush" in the mid nineteenth century, which attracted people from around the world in search of their fortune. Discouragingly for them, the gold proved perplexing and expensive to mine, and majority of of the mining operations fell into disuse, yet some remain. Nowadays, the casinos of Francis Town give persons with the likelihood to strike it rich; there is still gold here, if you are only privileged enough to find it!

Apart from Francis Town, the other key center for Botswana casinos is the capital, Gaborone. This is home to Botswana’s biggest casinos, the Grand Palm Hotel Casino Resort, which has 17 table games and more than 250 slots and video gaming machines, the Gaborone Sun Casino, which is the original and most massive casino in Botswana, as well as a brand-new development at the Gaborone Hotel. Hence, the capital is making a bid to bait a number of the wagering business away from its northern contender, and make itself a exceptional stopover for overseas tourists on the way to the national parks of Chobe and Okavango in the north of Botswana, which are the country’s choice tourist fascinations currently.

Africans adore wagering, and Botswana casinos are devised to lure locals and its visitors from other places. Recognizing this, the government has been perceptive not to hound the Botswana casino industry with rules and red tape, even though the industry has clearly cautiously been checked out to guarantee that it upholds the best principles of character. So, the Botswana casino sector perseveres to build to meet the request of persons from everywhere, eager to locate their fortune, like the prospectors of old.
