Good to Know, East Africa.

Best time to visit East Africa.

• Dry Season (June to October): This is generally considered the best time to visit Kenya and Tanzania. The weather is cool and dry, making it ideal for wildlife safaris. The Great Migration in the Maasai Mara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater usually occurs from July to September.
• Short Rains (November to December): While there may be some brief afternoon showers, this is still a good time for safaris as the landscape is lush and green. It’s also a less crowded and more affordable time to visit.
• Long Rains (March to May): This is the rainy season, and some parks may become inaccessible due to flooding. Great time for birdwatching and fewer crowds in certain areas.
• Overall, the dry season from June to October is often preferred for wildlife viewing, but the short rains from November to December can also offer a unique experience with lush landscapes and fewer tourists. It’s essential to consider your specific interests and plan accordingly.
