Best Time to Visit Kenya

The best time to visit Kenya for this safari is during the dry months of June to October and January to March.
During these periods, roads are dry, and wildlife congregates around waterholes, making sightings more predictable.

Traveling in April–May or November? You’ll enjoy lush green parks, fewer tourists, and discounted Kenya safari packages.
