Why Botswana

Botswana made a choice few countries dared to make. Rather than open its wilderness to the masses, it chose the opposite: fewer visitors, larger private concessions and a fierce commitment to keeping the wild truly wild.

The result is the most exclusive safari on the continent. In the Okavango Delta you can glide by mokoro past elephants with no other vehicle in sight. In Chobe you can watch a thousand elephants come down to the river at dusk. This is safari at its most private, most pristine — and it is what we know best.

Timing

The best time for a Botswana safari

There is no wrong time — only different experiences. The dry season (June–October) brings peak game viewing and the Delta’s famous floodwaters; it is spectacular, and it books out first. The green season (November–March) trades some visibility for dramatic skies, newborn wildlife and value of up to 50% less. The shoulder months of April, May and November offer the best of both.
