- Manyana Rock Paintings - The Manyana rock paintings are the most frequented rock painting site near Gaborone. These artworks are distributed across five distinct rock cliff areas. The images feature giraffes, antelopes, human figures, and geometric patterns, all dating from 1100 to 1700 AD. It is highly probable that these paintings were created by Khoe (click-speaking) herders.

Join us for a personal, guided day journey beyond the city limits of Gaborone to experience a charming village situated on the city’s periphery. We’ll travel along a sprawling, paved road to Manyana, a community deeply steeped in history and culture where the sole southern rock art of Botswana awaits. In good company, we’ll experience 2000-year-old ‘Bushmen’ rock paintings, plus a hill important in the initial defense of Botswana’s domain. Discover the cave that was once the shelter of a queen… This village was a residence for Dr. David Livingstone prior to his expeditions into central Africa. We’ll visit the renowned David Livingstone tree nested in the village center (we can arrive on a donkey cart if available and if you prefer, otherwise we will utilize the car.
