Botswana Safari

Botswana Honeymoon Safaris: seclusion as standard

Two-person mokoros, star beds and Falls finales.

FAQs

Best honeymoon months?

June to September for flood levels and skies.

What is the best month for this trip?

Timing decides everything: May-Oct. Tell us your exact window and we confirm the wildlife logic before quoting camps.

How many days should we allow?

8-10 days + Falls. Shorter formats move daily; longer formats add buffer days for weather, herds and rest - the days most travelers later call the best.

What does it cost?

As a baseline, rates in this cluster start at $7,400, rising with season and camp tier - see the cards above. Final pricing depends on season, camp tier and group size - every proposal is line-itemed so you can trade choices up or down per night.

Who is this trip best for?

Everyone who wants their own vehicle, guide and schedule - no group compromises.

Can we customise the route?

Freely - add nights, upgrade camps, swap parks or append beach and trekking. Request a proposal and we re-quote line by line.

Do we need a visa?

Most visitors need one: Tanzania offers visas on arrival for many nationalities, Kenya uses an eTA applied for online before travel, Uganda an e-visa. We confirm the current rule for your passport before you fly.

One decision per country, and they differ. Tanzania sells visas on arrival for most passports - US$50, US$100 for United States citizens - or by eVisa in advance. Kenya has issued only the eTA since 2024, at US$32.50 online at least three days before departure. Uganda runs an e-visa printed before you fly, and the US$100 East African Tourist Visa folds Kenya, Uganda and Rwanda into a single stamp. Six months of passport validity covers all three. Send us passport details at proposal stage and we confirm every rule for your nationality before you commit to flights.

Traveling solo - how do single supplements work?

All itineraries run solo. Expect a 20 to 50 percent supplement where lodges charge per room; vehicles cost the same whether one or six ride. Ask for the honest supplement math per trip.

Is a balloon flight worth adding?

Once, yes: a dawn flight over the Serengeti or Mara with a bush breakfast runs 550 to 600 dollars and minimum ages apply. Book at proposal stage - seats sell out months ahead in season.

How far ahead should we book?

Peak Migration and gorilla-permit months need 6 to 12 months. Green season often works with 2 to 4 months notice.
