Explore Botswana

Botswana is a global leader in sustainable, low-impact tourism, meaning it intentionally limits the number of visitors to protect its pristine wilderness. This approach offers travelers an incredibly exclusive experience with few other vehicles in sight. It is also home to the Okavango Delta, the world’s largest inland delta, where you can experience unique water-based safaris.

The prime time for a safari is during the dry season, from May to October. This period coincides with the annual flooding of the Okavango Delta, drawing vast concentrations of wildlife to the waterways. If you want to witness the dramatic zebra migration, the green season from December to March is ideal.

A mokoro is a traditional dug-out canoe propelled through the shallow waters of the Okavango Delta by an experienced local poler. It is an exceptionally peaceful and safe way to view smaller wildlife, birds, and aquatic flora without the noise of an engine.

Yes, though the focus in Botswana is often on the sheer abundance of wildlife rather than just checking off a list. Chobe National Park is home to Africa’s largest concentration of elephants, while the Moremi Game Reserve and private concessions offer excellent opportunities to see lions, leopards, buffaloes, and reintroduced rhinos.

Botswana operates on a "high-revenue, low-volume" tourism model to protect the environment. Many of the top lodges are located in private concessions accessible only by light aircraft. This exclusive access, combined with all-inclusive luxury accommodations and world-class conservation practices, makes it a premium investment.

Many international travelers, including citizens from the US, UK, Canada, and the EU, do not require a tourist visa for stays under 90 days. You will receive a tourist stamp upon arrival. Ensure your passport is valid for at least six months and has enough blank pages.

Because traveling between remote safari camps involves small, light aircraft, luggage is strictly limited to 15kg (33lbs) per person, including hand luggage. Bags must be soft-sided duffel shapes without frames or wheels so they can fit into the plane's compact cargo pod.

Botswana is consistently ranked as one of the safest, most stable, and peaceful countries in Africa. While standard travel awareness is recommended in urban transit hubs like Gaborone or Maun, the safari wilderness areas are incredibly secure and managed by highly trained professionals.

The northern regions of Botswana, including Chobe and the Okavango Delta, are considered malaria risk zones, particularly during the wet summer months. We strongly advise consulting a travel doctor before your trip to get the appropriate preventative medication.
