One of the greatest adventures is to go on a safari in Africa. Thinking about going on a safari and actually planning it are very different. The animal kingdom is complex, and so are weather patterns at times; without knowing the best time to go or what to pack, travel complications can arise. Here’s why we offer a Wildlife Safari Guide for seamless, easier travel. 

Safarizo ensures your complete safety, security, and comfort as you witness Africa’s wilderness and embark on a lifetime of adventure.

Planning

Best Time for Wildlife Safari

Wildlife safaris can be conducted year-round, but certain times of the year offer easier access to national parks and clearer animal sightings. Safarizo conducts expeditions across Kenya, Tanzania, and Botswana during peak, shoulder, and green seasons, with proper precautions and targets for the best experiences.

JULY – OCTOBER

Dry Season/Peak Season

Clear skies, easy access to park trails, and better wildlife views. Top attractions include the Wildebeest Migration, Big Five Tours, Chimpanzee Trekking, and Sanctuary Visits in Tanzania and Kenya.

January - March

Green Season/ Emerald Season

Best for wildebeest calving season in the Ndutu region of the Serengeti in Tanzania. This period is also famous for Mount Kilimanjaro summit trekking and mountain forest hiking in Kenya.

November, April & May

Wet Season/ Green Season

Botswana is perfect to visit in May, when you can enjoy the Okavango Delta’s lush greenery. The wet season is best for birdwatching, photography safaris, and venturing off the beaten track.
