May – Oct is the sweet spot for Botswana (Africa), and we plan departures from Surat around it — flights via Mumbai or Ahmedabad, 4★ boutique & agriturismo hotels locked in writing, and this itinerary from ₹3,24,999 per person on twin sharing.

Explera's Surat desk runs the whole journey end to end — flights, stays, transfers, guided sightseeing, Botswana visa assistance and insurance — with a written day-by-day plan before you pay and a human on call 24/7 while you travel.

Our trip with friends to Maun was better than the photos. The team suggested the perfect hotels and the 9-day route was neither rushed nor lazy. Priced fairly with no surprises at the end.
