Kenya is a great safari destination where millions of tourists visit every single year. T6 Choosing when to visit Kenya is a great decision for tourists to make, however, there is no definite time that is best suitable for visiting Kenya. This is because one person’s ideal weather can be another person’s disappointments. The dry season is generally the best time since there are very many days with high temperatures and low chances of rains.
During the dry season, the roads are also very passable making the parks easily reachable. The grass in the parks is also short which makes viewing easy, photography clear and therefore great memories on a wildlife game drive.
In the rainy season, the rain totals are high which makes it a less preferred time to visit Kenya, however, it is also a good time to visit since there are fewer visitors in the parks allowing you to enjoy the beauty with fewer interruptions. This is a great time to visit for budget travelers. The peak months with heavy rains are in March, April, and May.
From July to November is the best time to see the wildebeest in Masai Mara Game Reserve.
East Africa is a natural favorite for African safari first-timers and Kenya with very efficient tourist infrastructure and a dazzling choice of camps and lodges makes it a must-visit. Here are some of the top ideas for tours to Kenya.
Budget Tours. Safaris in Kenya can be cost-effective but depending on what you choose for your trip. Budget safari holidays help to keep the whole cost affordable and a good way to see much more. To travel budget, choose to travel by road rather than flight though this is not mandatory. Kenya has a very efficient tourism transport sector and therefore easy to take flights between destinations. The travel vans have open roofs that are used for open game viewing during game drives.
Chartered fight transfers. Though traveling by road is considered affordable, transfers by chartered flights help cut log road journeys between parks. Light aircraft help reduce the long hours spent on drives and therefore giving more time to be spent in the parks. Flights also offer such amazing ariel views of the wildlife below and the scenic landscape.
Camping. Kenya has such amazing hotels and lodges crafted to offer the best of hospitality and comfort during the safari. However, choosing to go camping for part of your Kenya safari is such an authentic way of experiencing the wild. Camping is such a wild experience that gives you a closer feeling of the wild and also flexibility.
Walking safaris/nature walks. In most cases, safari game drives will be by a 4×4 safari vehicle, however, choose to have a walking safari or nature walk for one of your experiences. This is one of the real one-off adventures in the wild. Walking safaris are safe and guided by knowledgeable armed park rangers through designated trails of the park.
The walk is such a true experience of the wild, one that has you nervous and yet just excited too. Though with the full thrill, you may not have great photography opportunities as those on game drives. Northern Kenya is good for such kinds of safaris.
Beach holidays. Visiting the beach is one perfect way to relax but also have an experience of the cool Indian Ocean breeze. Beach holidays are ideal for any kind of travelers including honeymooners. Choose to visit the beach during long Kenya holidays after or in-between visits to the national parks. Diani, Watamu, Malindi, and Mombasa are the best places for beach holidays.
Any safari destination in Kenya will surely be amazing, however, some of the most popular experiences, include the Maasai Mara National Reserve, the best for wildlife encounters including lions, cheetahs, leopards, and the wildebeest when visited between July and October. Samburu Park is renowned for its elephants, Meru for the born free lioness, Lake Nakuru National Park for flamingoes, and rhinos.
