FAQs
Absolutely! Botswana is a top-tier safari destination known for its pristine wilderness, high wildlife density, and commitment to conservation.
Prices range from $3,000 to $15,000+ depending on the length, level of luxury, and inclusions. Mobile safaris in Botswana tend to be more budget-friendly, while private luxury tours are at the premium end.
Botswana offers exclusive, uncrowded safari experiences with high standards of hospitality and unique ecosystems like the Okavango Delta and Makgadikgadi Pans.
May to October is the best time to visit during the dry season, when animals gather at waterholes and vegetation is sparse for better sightings.
Botswana focuses on low-impact, high-quality tourism, which means fewer lodges and guests, personalized service, and unmatched exclusivity—making it worth every penny.
Both are fantastic, but Botswana offers a more private, exclusive experience with less crowding and unique aquatic safaris in the Okavango Delta. Tanzania, on the other hand, is great for epic migrations and classic savanna safaris.
