Botswana’s incredible natural beauty coupled with a national focus on conservation makes for an exceptional safari experience. From desert to delta you’ll experience abundant flora and fauna, meet inspiring people and fall in love with this landlocked country.
Venture across a tangle of rugged tracks, crossing over fossilised river valleys, expansive stretches of grasslands and rusted-red savannahs in search of animal sightings. Around dusty bends, in the thick of foliage and splashing through basins, elephants, hippos, wild dogs, zebras, wildebeest and more can be discovered.
To truly uncover the highlights of Botswana, we’ll create a tailor-made safari trip, helping you choose between the wide variety of lodges and luxury tented camps here, finding the perfect mix of game viewing, locations and activities for you.

One of my favourite memories of Botswana was listening to the amazing sounds of the Okavango Delta at night. There’s something quite magical in listening to that abundance of nature and wildlife whilst safely relaxing in the comfort of the lodge.

Where to go

Okavango Delta
The incredible Okavango Delta has a well-deserved reputation as one of the world’s best wildlife habitats. During the dry season, its vast plains are flooded by the Okavango River, transforming it into an irresistible attraction for animals in search of water. Board a traditional mokoro to get up close and personal with its intriguing ecosystem or take a hot air balloon ride to see it all from above.

Linyanti
With a combination of woodlands, ancient floodplains and watercourses, Botswana’s Linyanti is home to a dense and varied wildlife quotient. It is arguably the best place to see predators in Africa, and especially huge concentrations of elephants in the dry season - the best time to visit Botswana.

Chobe and Savuti
Located right at the northern edge of Botswana, close to the spectacular Victoria Falls on the border of Zambia and Zimbabwe, Chobe National Park is known for the massive herds of elephants and buffalo that congregate on the banks of its river.

Set in the central and eastern part of the Okavango Delta, the Moremi Game Reserve comprises everything from lagoons and waterways to floodplains and forests.

The Makgadikgadi Pans
The salt pans of Makgadikgadi might not be the best place for game viewing in Botswana but it offers some of the most incredible landscapes. The region consists of vast and empty salt pans, with nothing but scattered rocks and baobab trees. This area of Botswana is also home to the bushmen.

When to visit
May through to October are the best game viewing months as the climate is very dry and the water begins to recede, making the animals congregate in smaller areas. This period marks the best time to visit the Okavango Delta, Linyanti, Moremi and Chobe National Park.
