Botswana » Travel Tips » When to Go

 

Botswana is a year-round wildlife destination. However, there are certain seasonal concerns of which groups with special interests should take note:

  • The best birding months are November - March, when the delta is brimming with migratory birds.
  • The best botanical months are December - May, when the vegetation is lush and green and most plants are in flower.

November to April is a less popular time for taking a Botswana safari. This is the wet season, and due to the abundance of water it is less certain that one will see wildlife at perennial water holes. Also, the heavy rains can make dirt roads impassable.
