What to bring

  • Neutral colors: Wear khaki, tan, or olive green to blend into the bush and avoid attracting biting tsetse flies, which love dark blue and black.
  • Warm layers: Bring a fleece jacket, beanie, and scarf for freezing early morning game drives and chilly evening boat cruises.
  • Lightweight fabrics: Pack breathable long-sleeve shirts and trousers to protect against the afternoon sun and evening mosquitoes.
  • Sturdy shoes: Wear closed-toe trail shoes or sneakers. Heavy hiking boots are unnecessary unless you are doing a walking safari.

Know before you go

  • Dry Season (May-October): The ultimate time for game viewing. Vegetation thins out, and huge herds of elephants and buffalo congregate along the Chobe Riverfront to drink.
  • Green Season (Dec-March): Ideal for birdwatchers (over 500 species) and for seeing newborn impalas. However, late in this season (Jan-April), anti-malarial precautions are strongly recommended.
  • Camouflage is illegal: Leave all military or camo-patterned clothing at home, as it is strictly prohibited by law.
  • Sun protection: Bring a wide-brimmed hat, strong sunscreen, and high-quality polarized sunglasses for the boat glare.
