Hi Biche!
I am from Molepolole, which is about 40 mins north west of Gaborone. One other cool place Lion’s Park, just 15 mins out of the city on the A1 highway to Lobatse. It’s an amusement park with a rollercoaster and many other fun things to do.

Hi Rre,
Welcome to ChickAboutTown! Thanks for adding to my list of things to do in Gaborone. I heard of Lion’s Park when I was in Gaborone, and everyone told me how close it was to the city, but having seen Lions in the wild (think the Serengeti/Ngorgongoro in Tanzania), I was worried it’d be too touristy rather than an interesting animal experience. I hadn’t realized that it was also an amusement park. Thanks for letting me know. It’s now officially on my list of things to do the next time I am in Gaborone. ????
