Maun is the gateway to the Okavango Delta and despite being one of Botswanas fastest growing towns still has a pleasant frontier village charm atmosphere. The whole town revolves around tourism, bustling with 4 Wheel drive vehicles, khaki clad safari guides, tourists buying supplies for the next part of the journey, cafes and bars where people meet and catch up on the previous trip, giving an exciting buzz to the place.
There are now several supermarkets, vehicle spare part suppliers, fuel stations and fast food shops in town and everything is clustered around the main town centre.
Situated south-east of the Delta it is accessible by tar roads approx 1210km from Johannesburg and 932km from Gaborone. All the roads in Maun are tar and the two main routes into Maun are from the Transkalahari (coming from Namibia and South Africa) and the road from Nata (tar route to Chobe, Zimbabwe, Victoria Falls and Limpopo). It lies on a stretch of the Thamalekane River.
To go north of Maun - to get to the Moremi National Park, Savuti and Southern Chobe - is a 4w drive route only and gets very interesting in the wet season.
