When To Visit Kenya

Kenya, a land of breathtaking landscapes, abundant wildlife, and vibrant culture, beckons travellers year-round. However, understanding the Best Time to Visit Kenya can significantly enhance your safari experience.

With diverse ecosystems and a wealth of wildlife, the optimal time for your adventure depends on your interests. Here's a guide to help you plan your Kenyan journey:

The Great Migration (July to October)

For wildlife enthusiasts, especially those keen on witnessing the dramatic Great Migration of wildebeests and zebras, this is the prime time. The Mara River crossings are iconic, as thousands of animals attempt to traverse this crocodile-infested river.

Dry Season (June to October)

Kenya's dry season is a fantastic time for wildlife viewing. With little rainfall and sparse vegetation, animals gather around water sources, offering excellent visibility during game drives. The weather is pleasant, making it a popular time for safaris.

Shoulder Seasons (November to March and June)

 Shoulder seasons are considered the best time to visit Kenya. The country is lush and green, and the wildlife is still active. These months offer a perfect blend of wildlife viewing and comfortable weather.

Birdwatching (November to April)

Kenya is a haven for birdwatchers, and the birdlife is particularly active during the wetter months. You'll have the chance to spot migratory birds that flock to the region during this time.

Climbing Mount Kenya (January to February and August to September)

If conquering peaks is your passion, these months are ideal for climbing Mount Kenya. The weather is clearest, with the least rainfall, providing the best climbing conditions.

Beach Vacations (December to March and July to September)

 Kenya's idyllic coastal areas, like Diani Beach and Malindi, are perfect for relaxation and water sports during the dry seasons. Snorkelling, diving, and water excursions are popular.

Finally, the When To Visit Kenya truly depends on your interests and the experiences you seek. Whether you're eager to witness the Great Migration, explore the country's vibrant cultures, or indulge in thrilling outdoor adventures, Kenya offers something extraordinary every month of the year. Plan your Kenya Safari to match your desires and savour the magic of this incredible destination.

Excellent

Seremara Safaris booked a wonderful 3-night safari at Basecamp and Leopard hill. Our guide Tonkei was amazing, we saw leopards, lions, hyenas, elephants, buffalo, hippos, and even a cheetah kill. The basecamp staff and Leopard hill staff were so friendly and kind. We felt so cared for throughout our stay, especially mealtimes.

Completely satisfied and referred friends!

A trusted provider referred us to Seremara and we worked with Seremara to book a trip to Amboseli. Benson was very helpful in identifying options and handled all aspects including booking flights, hotels, transfers, etc.
