When to Visit

Dry Season (June to October)

The best time for wildlife viewing as animals gather around water sources. Vegetation is less dense, making animals easier to spot. Weather is pleasant with clear skies.

Green Season (November to May)

Lush landscapes and fewer tourists. Great for bird watching and photography. Some areas may have limited access due to rains, especially in April and May.

Migration Season (Varies)

If witnessing the Great Migration is your priority, timing depends on the specific location within the ecosystem. Our experts can advise on the best time for your visit.
