Arabia Weather - The Okavango Delta, Moremi and Chobe are the most popular national parks in Botswana , where you can see wildlife all year round, but you should travel when the temperatures are moderate, and this varies from one park to another. We will give you the best time to do safari in Botswana.
During the months of April and May, the temperatures are moderate, and there is little rain with often few clouds, so this period is preferred for those looking for very good weather. As for the worst weather conditions, they are during the months of October and November, with very high temperatures, and during the months of January and February, which constitute the peak of the rainy season.
Arguably the best time for safaris in Botswana is from June to September in the Okavango, Moremi and Chobe National Parks, and from March to May in the other, drier ones.
The peak tourist season is from July to October, at which time it probably won't feel too crowded, with the exception of Chobe National Park. As for the less popular tourist season , it is during the period from December to April. If you travel, you will find yourself in front of empty tourist destinations due to the lack of tourists, so that some hostels and camps may be closed.
Clear skies, rain is rare, there are fewer mosquitoes, and fewer plants and animals congregate around ponds and rivers make wildlife easier to see. Although most tourists visit Botswana during the dry season, the parks remain uncrowded except for the Chobe riverfront area, which is one of the best destinations for spotting African buffalo .
The landscape gets greener and the temperatures drop during this season, and with the exception of January and February, the rains are mostly short afternoon showers, which rarely have an adverse effect on your trip. Although wildlife spotting is easier in the dry season, you'll see plenty of newborn animals and migratory birds.
