Chobe National Park and Moremi Game Reserve support abundant wildlife waiting to be encountered and the Okavango Delta (flooded from June to October) is a marvel to explore by mokoro or air. These popular areas are best enjoyed during the dry winter season from May to September.

It is easier to spot animals during the dry winter months (May to October) in the northern parks due to thin vegetation and animals congregating near rivers and waterholes.

In the dry Kalahari, the wet season promises better sightings as animals from the northern parks are lured by the more attractive vegetation present between November to April. In November and early December, the massive Zebra Migration commences during which massive herds of zebra make their way to Makgadikgadi and Nxai Pan National Parks.
