Luxury Botswana Safaris

Rainfall is frequent, but the Okavango Delta and Chobe National Park turn vivid green. Wildlife is more scattered, yet birdlife and newborn animals make this a rewarding and peaceful time for a Botswana safari.

Rains continue, keeping landscapes lush and skies dramatic. Roads can be muddy in some areas, but prices are lower and sightings of young animals remain excellent across Botswana’s reserves.

Temperatures cool slightly and showers ease. The scenery stays beautiful, and as the bush begins to thin, game viewing improves, especially in the Okavango Delta and Moremi Game Reserve.

A transition month with fewer rains and comfortable days. Vegetation begins to open up, offering easier wildlife viewing while the Botswana safari landscapes remain green and photogenic.

The start of the dry season brings clear skies and mild days. Wildlife starts gathering near rivers, and conditions are perfect for photography and Okavango Delta safaris by boat or mokoro.

Dry, sunny weather and cooler nights make June ideal for Botswana safaris. The Okavango Delta floods, creating excellent mokoro and boating experiences, though nights can be chilly.

One of the best months to visit. Game viewing is superb and mosquitoes are minimal. Expect cool mornings, warm days, and a lively atmosphere in Chobe National Park and the Delta.

Dry, warm, and consistent. Animals gather at shrinking water sources, making sightings easy across Botswana’s top safari areas. Camps are busier now, so early booking is recommended.

Still dry and excellent for safaris, with daytime heat rising. The Okavango Delta remains beautiful, and the Chobe River offers dramatic elephant herds and predators on the move.

Hot and dry, with intense wildlife activity near waterholes. The heat can be challenging, but sightings are outstanding across Botswana’s national parks and lodges often offer good value before the rains.

The first rains bring relief from the heat and transform the bush into fresh greens. Wildlife disperses slightly, but birding safaris in Botswana become exceptional.

Rain showers are common, yet this is a beautiful, quiet month with vibrant landscapes and abundant birdlife. A good time for photography in the Okavango Delta and fewer visitors overall.
