The best time to go to Kazungula is during the dry season, which runs from May to October.
During these months, the weather is more agreeable with less humidity and virtually no rain, making it ideal for outdoor activities. The dry conditions also mean that animals tend to congregate around the remaining water sources, making wildlife viewing more predictable and often spectacular. This period is particularly good for those planning to visit nearby Chobe National Park.
For travellers looking for the best wildlife viewing opportunities, the cooler, drier months of July and August are often considered top choices. The vegetation is sparser, improving visibility, and the lower water levels concentrate animals along the Chobe River. This time of year is superb for boat safaris, which are a highlight of the region.
If you prefer slightly warmer temperatures and fewer crowds, the shoulder months of May, June, September, and October still offer excellent wildlife viewing and pleasant weather.
