A DMC with a Difference

At Chester & Rose, we believe in doing things differently; with heart, honesty and a deep understanding of Southern Africa. We’re a boutique, owner-run Destination Management Company based in Botswana, built on real relationships and over a decade of industry experience. Our job is to be the trusted hand-holder for busy travel trade partners navigating this extraordinary part of the world for their guests.


We help you stand out in the market, offering genuinely unique and inspiring product across Botswana, Namibia, Zimbabwe, Zambia and beyond, and act as an extension of your team on the ground. You’ll always have a direct line to someone who knows the region inside-out and genuinely cares about your clients' experience. Through our comprehensive Agent Zone, training, guidance, and emergency support for your guests, we make it easy for you to sell with confidence. This is about getting the details right, being available when it matters, and building partnerships that last.

Incredible Experiences

Chester & Rose offer DMC services to Botswana, Namibia, Zambia and Zimbabwe with city extensions to South Africa and beach extensions to Mozambique.


We understand that travel is no longer just about the rooms you sleep in or the quality of the thread count—although those aspects are important. What truly makes a holiday extraordinary are the experiences you encounter along the way. When our customers return home, they don’t just talk about the hotels they stayed in; they share stories about the activities they enjoyed and the connections they made with others.

Behind the Scenes

Our goal is to make selling Southern Africa easy, by sharing our personal experiences and keeping up to date with all the destination changes so you don't have to.

Chester & Rose is led by me, Harriet. With over a decade of experience in the tourism industry in Botswana, I have learned from major corporations and gained insights into a wide array of booking processes. From curating the perfect honeymoon for a couple to managing the reservation logistics of much larger projects like weddings, film shoots, and A-list clientele, my experience is extensive.


I live in Maun, Botswana, with my family, and I have firsthand experience of what it’s like to travel in this part of the world. I can help you select the ideal products for your clients while securing competitive rates, giving you an edge in a competitive market.
