June to October during the dry season, when wildlife is easier to spot and the roads
are in good condition. Fewer tourists and lush landscapes.
January to February (Short Dry Season) – Also Great
Good for photography and game drives.
However, November to December is also a good time, with
short rains that rarely interfere with game drives and fewer crowds in the parks.
