A reminder - in order to prevent the spread of Foot & Mouth Disease, all footwear will be disinfected upon entry into Botswana.

To speed up the process, please: 

👟 Pack shoes separately in a tote bag, or 

🧳 Keep shoes in their carry-on for quick access

You may have heard these common misconceptions…

“The grass is too tall”; “It rains all the time”; “Do you even see any animals”

But -
•             Migratory bird species arrive, beautiful breeding plumage, mating calls, and the birding counts can head into the hundreds.

•             New grass growth provides new food for herbivores - dropping all their young at the same time which can overwhelm predators.

•             More prey, makes for easier pickings for predators, barring protective mothers and herd immunity mentality

•             Rain in Botswana is normally the short and sharp version, impressive cloud build-ups, dramatic thunder and lightning displays, a quick downpour, then the adventure continues.

•             PRICE! Green season attracts some fantastic discounts of around 40% less than Peak Season prices.
