The best time to visit Serengeti National Park largely depends on what you want to experience during your trip, as the park offers different attractions and experiences throughout the year. However, there are two main seasons that are commonly considered the best times to visit: Dry Season (June to October): This period, often referred to as the dry or peak season, is generally considered the best time to visit Serengeti National Park. From June to October, the weather is dry and sunny, with minimal rainfall, making it easier to spot wildlife as they congregate around water sources. The dry season also coincides with the Great Migration, one of the most spectacular wildlife events on the planet, where millions of wildebeest, zebras, and other animals move across the plains in search of fresh grazing grounds. Witnessing the migration during this time is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Wildlife viewing is excellent during the dry season, as the sparse vegetation and concentrated water sources make it easier to spot animals, including predators like lions, cheetahs, and leopards. The dry season is a popular time to visit, so expect larger crowds and higher accommodation rates compared to other times of the year. Green Season (November to May): The green season, also known as the wet season or low season, occurs from November to May and is characterized by occasional rainfall and lush, green landscapes. While wildlife viewing may not be as prolific during this time as during the dry season, the green season offers its own unique advantages. The landscape is lush and vibrant, making for stunning photographic opportunities, with dramatic skies and colorful sunsets. The green season is birthing season for many animals, so you may have the chance to see newborn animals, including wildebeest calves and lion cubs. With fewer visitors, you'll have a more intimate safari experience and may benefit from lower accommodation rates and special offers. Birdwatching is excellent during the green season, as many migratory bird species visit the park during this time. Ultimately, the best time to visit Serengeti National Park depends on your preferences and priorities. If witnessing the Great Migration is at the top of your list, then the dry season is the ideal time to visit. However, if you prefer fewer crowds and lush landscapes, then the green season may be more suitable for you.

EXPLORE NAIVASHA'S SECRET There is just one “Crescent Island Game Sanctuary”. Located on Lake Naivasha, in the Great Rift Valley, Kenya. It is one of the most beautiful parks in Kenya and is often called Naivasha’s best-kept secret. Perfect for Wildlife Watching, Bird Enthusiasts, and all fans of the wilderness... Lake Naivasha is a freshwater lake, unlike Lakes Elementaita, Nakuru and Bogoria which are Soda. It lies at 6,200 feet above sea level, about 95km north of Nairobi in the Great Rift Valley. Crescent Island and the adjacent Lotus Island, home of a Yacht Club, form the rim of an extinct volcano protruding out of this Lake in the shadow of Mount Longonot, also an extinct volcano, close to Hell’s Gate National Park. The name Naivasha derives from the local Maasai name Nai’posha meaning “rough water”. The circumference of the Lake is about 80 km, the deepest part is within the Crescent at roughly 18 meters. It is known to have dried out twice since 1898 and is fed by two rivers, one being the Malewa whose source is in the Aberdares. It had one indigenous fish until 1929 when the Black Bass were introduced, followed by Tilapia in 1956 but Carp is now predominant. In the 1940s when air travel first came to Kenya en route from England to South Africa, the four-engined Flying-Boats landed on Lake Naivasha and the foundations of the Terminal and Customs shed can still be seen today on Crescent Island. It was also pictured on Kenya postage stamps from 1949 to 1952. Naivasha has seen huge development since the 1980s, the climate ideal for horticulture. Many of the flowers and vegetables sold in the supermarkets in the UK are grown here. Just forty km south of the Equator with a nearly all year even temperature, the combination of dry heat during the day , the cool evenings of high altitude plus close proximity to Nairobi on good roads and easy access to wildlife have made it a hugely attractive place to live with many hotels and houses built around the Lake.

Should You Head East Or South For An Africa Safari? Because of the continent’s enormous size, safari veterans usually divide Africa into two regions, eastern and southern. Focusing your interest on one particular region makes sense when considering a two-week stay. In both regions, you will have a chance to see the Big 5 (lion, elephant, rhino, leopard and buffalo) but you find there are different species unique to each region. Both these regions offer plenty of attractions, so we try to figure out exactly what type of safari experience you’d like to have and then we narrow it down from there.
