Welcome to Kasane
Elephants drink from the Chobe River at the edge of town, and big-cat sightings are common in Chobe National Park nearby. Kasane is Botswana's gateway to one of Africa's most wildlife-rich corners. Resorts in Kasane are built along the riverfront, putting game cruises and guided safari drives within easy reach. It's a compact base with serious wildlife credentials.
How to find the best resort deal in Kasane
The same magic that powers our flight search can also help you discover great deals on rooms online. Here are some hacks to find the perfect place to stay and save in seconds.
Book in advance
The sooner you book, the better. You're more likely to land a cheaper price on a resort and have a wider range of choice.
...Or bag a last-minute Kasane resort deal
Booking late can be a bit of a gamble, but it can swing your way. Some stays cut their rates close to arrival to attract more guests, especially during low season or on quieter days.
Flexible on dates? Say hello to better rates
If your dates are flexible, compare different months or seasons to find cheap resorts in Kasane. Weekdays are often a little more affordable than weekends, so even a small tweak can make a difference.
Go all-inclusive
All-inclusive resorts in Kasane can be a clever money move if you want to spend most of your stay on site. With drinks, activities and meals bundled into the room rate, they can offer better value than paying for things as you go. Check if these types of stays are available before booking.
Show discounted resorts only
For a quick way to skip the full-price listings, turn on the 'Only show hotels with discounts' filter. It finds resorts with price drops or special offers.
When to visit Kasane
High and low season in Kasane
The dry season, running roughly from May through October, is the best time to visit Kasane for wildlife viewing. Vegetation thins out, animals gather around water sources, and the Chobe River becomes a focal point for elephants, hippos, and other wildlife. This is peak season, so accommodation fills quickly. Securing your lodge or camp well ahead of your arrival dates is strongly recommended.
The wet season, from November through April, brings lush green landscapes and fewer visitors. Prices tend to be lower and availability is easier to find. The trade-off is that some tracks can become difficult to navigate after heavy rain, and wildlife is more spread out across the area. It can still be a rewarding time to visit, particularly for birdwatchers.
Kasane sits close to Chobe National Park, and most local activities centre on safari experiences, boat cruises along the Chobe River, and guided game drives year-round. Organised community events are not widely documented, so your accommodation or a local visitor information centre is the best starting point for finding out what is happening during your stay.
