Workation in Gaborone: the essentials
Gaborone was laid out from scratch in the 1960s as the capital of a soon-to-be independent Botswana, and the government enclave around the Main Mall still shows the plan. About 246,000 people live in the city (2022), and diamonds help explain how fast it has grown: De Beers moved its global diamond sales here in 2013. Kgale Hill offers a short hike above town, Mokolodi Nature Reserve lies just to the south, and the South African border is within 15 km. Sir Seretse Khama International Airport is about 15 km from the centre. Distances between malls and districts are long, so expect to rely on a car or taxis.
