This is the dry season, offering the best conditions for gorilla trekking. Trails are firmer, skies clearer, and sightings more reliable — ideal for those seeking close-up encounters with mountain gorillas in the misty forests of Bwindi and Mgahinga.
This short dry window is perfect for classic game drives in Queen Elizabeth and Murchison Falls National Parks. Wildlife gathers at water sources, making it easier to spot elephants, lions, and more — plus, birdwatching is superb as migratory species arrive.
Expect lush landscapes and fewer crowds. While treks may be muddier, photographers and birders will love the dramatic skies, emerald forests, and vibrant birdlife. With the right gear, this season offers rich rewards.
Clear skies and abundant wildlife make this stretch ideal for families and those celebrating special occasions. With school holidays and festive events, Kenya comes alive with joy and activity.
Key Highlights:
High wildlife visibility in major parks
Excellent for family-friendly safaris and group travel
Great for milestone celebrations (birthdays, anniversaries, New Year)
Book early, as this is also a popular time for locals and international travelers seeking a warm, luxurious holiday experience.
