Cost of a Botswana Safari

Africa's best authentic tailor-made safaris

Cost of a Botswana Safari

Planning a safari in Botswana involves several cost considerations, including the choice of destination, type of accommodation, travel season, and trip duration.

Here’s a summary to assist in budgeting your adventure:

1. Cost of Destination:

  • Okavango Delta: High demand during peak season (June to October) drives up costs due to ideal wildlife viewing conditions.
  • Central Kalahari: Opting for the green season offers a more exclusive experience at reduced rates.

2. Cost of Accommodations:

  • Mid-Range Safaris: Starting at $525 per person per day during low season.
  • Luxury Safari: Up to $3,000 per person per day in high season.

3. Time of Year:

  • Peak Season (June to October): Higher prices due to demand and optimal wildlife viewing.
  • Low Season (December to March): Potential cost reductions of up to 50%, with fewer tourists.
  • Shoulder Season (November, April, May): Mid-range pricing with balanced wildlife viewing and crowd levels.

4. Duration of Safari:

Longer safaris increase accommodation costs but provide more comprehensive exploration opportunities.

Note: Prices are approximate and can vary based on specific choices and market conditions.
