Affordable Botswana
There are still ways to explore and enjoy Botswana, even if you are on a budget. Travelling during the Emerald Season (November to end April), for example, is a way to take advantage of this low rates offered during this period; or seek out the more rustic camps which come at a more affordble price point.
The Emerald Season runs between November and the end of April and some great savings can be made on camps throughout Botswana.The season is called the 'Emerald' season because the summer rains fall, turning the landscape into various tones of green. Many species of wildlife give birth to their young during these months, and migrant bird species arrive back, making this a superb time for safari lovers and birders to experience Africa's wildlife.
Equally, there are some camps and lodges that even outside of this low priced period are still incredibly good value for money. Whilst they may not have the fine trimmings of the grander 5* rated camps, they still offer a comfortable safari stay.
Combine the elephants of Chobe and an exceptional wildlife safari experience in the famous Moremi Game Reserve on this unforgettable 5 night itinerary.
