Botswana is one of Africa’s success stories; an area of different natural scenery, abundant supplies, as well as a quick-arising tourist spot, engrossed by its proximity to South Africa and also by its admirable game reserves and national parks. Botswana casinos are a expanding sector of the economy, and casinos have come forth in a number of cities in the country, including the capital, Gaborone, and the northern capital, Francis Town. Significantly, the Botswana government has taken great steps to make sure that the creation of Botswana casinos continues in line with the emerging amounts of overseas visitors.

Francis Town is the greatest city in northern Botswana and also home to two casinos, the Marang Hotel, and also the Admiral at the Thapama Hotel. The city was the site of southern Africa’s earliest "gold rush" in the mid nineteenth century, which attracted people from around the world in search of their fortune. Sadly for them, the gold proved hard and highly priced to mine, and most of the mining operations fell into disuse, still a few remain. Today, the casinos of Francis Town present persons with the possibility to strike it rich; there is still gold here, if you are just blessed enough to find it!

Apart from Francis Town, the other essential center for Botswana casinos is the capital, Gaborone. This is home to Botswana’s grandest casinos, the Grand Palm Hotel Casino Resort, which has 17 table games and above 250 slots and video gaming machines, the Gaborone Sun Casino, which is the primary and greatest casino in Botswana, as well as an innovative development at the Gaborone Hotel. Consequently, the capital is making a bid to appeal to some of the casino gambling business away from its northern competitor, and make itself a valuable destination for overseas visitors on the way to the national parks of Chobe and Okavango in the north of Botswana, which are the country’s finest tourist fascinations presently.

Africans enjoy playing, and Botswana casinos are designed to captivate locals and its persons from other places. Knowing this, the government has been on guard not to put pressure on the Botswana casino industry with protocols and barricades, even though the industry has clearly cautiously been examined to make sure that it upholds the maximum levels of probity. So, the Botswana casino sector goes on to thrive to meet the interest of players from everywhere, anxious to collect their fortune, like the prospectors of old.
