Victoria Falls and Chobe is generally warm; even in winter when early mornings (and evenings) are very chilly by midday it warms up and heavy clothing is removed. It is important cover up in summer as exposed flesh will get sunburned!
We recommend the following:
Comfortable clothing that provides sun protection like a light long sleeved shirt; even a cotton throw like a kikoi will help.
Warm clothing in winter (April to August) with layers being best for easy removal when the day heats up and cools down again.
Comfortable shoes: Hiking/running shoes
Children of all ages are welcome but parents of children of 2 years and under should book a private trip. Please note there are special requirements for parents of children to provide when entering Botswana. This is provided on booking
