When to Travel: Botswana, Namibia, Zambia, South Africa
The question of when to travel is often a perplexing issue for first time visitors to southern Africa. The topic is complicated by different weather patterns in different parts of the region, and there are no hard and fast rules. Our approach is to help travelers prioritize their wish lists, discuss the impact of weather in the areas they are considering, and come to a decision on timing that best reflects the circumstances of each individual traveler/group.
The good news is that there is no bad time to be in southern Africa. Analyzing the weather statistics, two points stand out. First, the region is blessed with relatively moderate temperatures without extremes of hot or cold; secondly, southern Africa is a dry part of the world, with relatively low annual rainfall figures. These facts reflect the region's tropical to subtropical location, and it's elevation (most non-coastal destinations being higher than 2,000 feet above sea level).
What this means is that southern Africa is a year round destination, and we have no qualms recommending travel to southern Africa at any time of the year. You can have a fabulous southern African adventure at any time of the year.
