About Francistown for Solo Travelers
Botswana's historic gold rush city and northern transport hub — a safe, quiet solo overnight stop with a surprisingly good local history museum.
Solo Travel Tips· Solo Friendly
Francistown is Botswana's second city and a useful transit stop between South Africa and the north — the Supa Ngwao Museum covers the area's gold rush history and is worth a solo half-day. The city is very safe and English-speaking. Most solo travelers pass through quickly on the way to Maun or Chobe.
