The Linyanti Concession can be visited year-round, but the best time for general wildlife viewing (especially elephants) is during the dry months, from May to October. Animals disperse during the wetter months, which means fewer sightings from November to April. The exception, apart from waterbirds along the Linyanti River, is the zebra migration. In November, zebras foal in the Savuti region of Chobe National Park, and they gather around Linyanti between February and April.
