Elephant capital of the world: an estimated 120,000 pachyderms crowd the Chobe River in the dry months, and the sunset cruise is the finest two hours of game viewing in Africa. Kasane’s town infrastructure makes Chobe the most affordable entry point into Botswana’s safari country — and it sits minutes from the Zimbabwe and Zambia borders.

Right now: Shoulder season — typically driest Jul.

Makgadikgadi Pans

Botswana · Central District, near Nata & Gweta A baked-white superlake the size of Portugal: ride quad bikes across the Sowa and Ntwetwe pans to nothing, sleep out under the Milky Way, meet habituated meerkats at sunrise, and — in the wet months — witness Africa’s second-largest zebra migration thunder onto the fresh grass.
