Best Times to Visit Africa

When you visit Africa will very much depend on what you are planning on doing – Safari, Cape Wine Route, Beach Holiday, Gorilla Trekking etc.

For Safari’s, in general the dry season of June to October is best as that brings out the animals to watering holes for best viewing. If you are after Wildebeest migrations timing will depend on what you want to see and where. Calving happens from February to March in the Southern Serengeti, the breeding season from April to may in the Western and Central Serengeti, the Grumeti River Crossings in May and June in Central Serengeti, the Mara River Crossings in July and August in Northern Serengeti and Masai Mara and migrations November to January in the Masai Mara, Northern and Southern Serengeti
