In September we will be going on a trip to Botswana and plan to visit Mapungubwe on our way home. What will be the best route to take from Kasana down to Mapungubwe. We will be driving a 4x2 Nissan xtrail.

We have travel through Botswana (travelling from PTA to Katima (via Kasane/Nguma) and also done Mapungubwe with the Nissan X Trail (4 x 2). I cannot comment on a route through Zambia/Zimbabwe But travelleing the main road (Kasane to Nata to Francistown to Palapye to Groblersdrift/Martins - border posts) will not be a problem. It is a tarred road..... mostly tarred - some parts still under construction for many years and somet parts more gravel than tar. But we did not experience serious/deep potholes. You can do this with a sedan as well. Just be mindful, in Dec (2010) we could not get diesel at some places including Kasane. So fill up where you can.
