Packing list tips

Botswana in the fall image

In Botswana during the fall, you can expect temperatures to be warm during the day and cooler at night.

It is recommended to bring lightweight, breathable clothing such as cotton shirts, shorts, and sundresses for the daytime. In the evenings, a light jacket or sweater will be necessary as temperatures can drop significantly.

Additionally, be sure to pack comfortable walking shoes for exploring the wildlife and natural landscapes. It is also important to bring a wide-brimmed hat and sunglasses to protect against the strong African sun.

Lastly, don't forget to pack swimwear if you plan on visiting any of Botswana's beautiful natural pools or waterholes.
