What are the must-see attractions during a trip to Botswana?

A trip to Botswana offers the chance to explore breathtaking landscapes and incredibly diverse wildlife. One must-see is the Okavango Delta, a natural wonder and UNESCO World Heritage site, known for its intricate waterways—an ideal haven for safari lovers and nature enthusiasts. Next, Chobe National Park, celebrated for its large elephant population, provides an unparalleled safari experience. Adventurers will be captivated by the Makgadikgadi Pans, with their otherworldly landscapes where zebra and flamingo migrations can be observed. Lastly, a cultural immersion with the San people offers a rich and authentic experience in this beautiful country.

When is the best time to visit Botswana?

The best time to visit Botswana is typically between May and October, during the dry season. This period offers cooler weather and excellent conditions for safari adventures as wildlife congregates around water sources, providing exceptional viewing opportunities. Conversely, from November to April, it’s the wet season, also called the green season. Although rains can make some paths less accessible, this time is ideal for witnessing wildlife births and enjoying the lush scenery. The wet season also attracts fewer tourists, making it perfect for those who prefer a quieter exploration.

What activities can you do during a stay in Botswana?

Botswana offers a plethora of exciting activities for travelers. Beyond the traditional safaris, you can explore the Okavango Delta by mokoro, a traditional canoe, offering a unique and immersive experience within nature. Hikers will appreciate adventures in the Tsodilo Hills, a UNESCO site noted for its rock paintings. For a unique escapade, enjoy a starry night stay in the Makgadikgadi Pans. Balloon or light plane flights provide an extraordinary view of the country’s diverse landscapes. Lastly, incorporate a cultural excursion to explore the fascinating heritage of the San tribes.
