You can visit the Khwai Concession (which covers the NG18 and NG19 concessions) year-round. However, the best time for seeing animals and ideal weather conditions is from May to October. Khwai is less unpredictable when it comes to water levels than the rest of the Okavango Delta, and the concession can be reached by road throughout most of the year. Rain is more likely from November to March, but this is also the best time for birding as migrant species are present from November to April.
