When to go on Safari
Our World’s Ultimate destinations in Southern and EasternAfrica are ideal to visit year round, with each seasonoffering unique experiences. Dry season and also thecolder months are between May and August. Due to thescarcity of water and vegetation and only a few naturalwaterholes, the animals tend to gather in concentratednumbers. The grass is less dense and lower which makesspotting animals easier. The nights can get chilly and closeto freezing point the further south you go. Temperaturesduring the day average between 60 – 68°F. The warm,rainy season generally runs from November to March. Itcan get really hot at midday and the animals are lessactive, usually found lying in the shade. Short afternoonthunderstorms are to be expected and nature is floodedwith new beginnings. The veld explodes into a lush, greenlandscape and this also marks the time for baby bucks tobe born. The rivers run mighty, making it a truly excitingtime to experience nature. Average daytime temperaturesare around 82°F.

ZimbabweZimbabwe is a landlocked country in Southern Africa known
for its dramatic landscape and diverse wildlife, much of it
within parks, reserves and safari areas. The Victoria Falls has
been described by CNN as one of the Seven Natural Wonders
of the world. Taking its place alongside the Pyramids and the
Serengeti, Victoria Falls (Mosi-oa-Tunya – the ‘smoke that
thunders’) is one of Africa’s original blockbusters. And
although Zimbabwe and Zambia share it, Victoria Falls is a
place all of its own. As a magnet for tourists of all descriptions
– backpackers, tour groups, thrill seekers, families, and
honeymooners – Victoria Falls is one of Earth’s great
spectacles. View it directly as a raging mile-long curtain of
water, in all its glory, from a helicopter ride or peek
precariously over its edge from Devil's Pools; the sheer power
and force of the falls is something that simply does not
disappoint. Whether you’re here purely to take in the sight of a
natural wonder of the world, or for a serious hit of adrenalin via
rafting or bungee jumping into the Zambezi, Victoria Falls is a
place where you're sure to tick off numerous items from that
bucket list.

Kenya
KenyaKenya was immortalized as the home of the safari by
legendary personalities such as Ernest Hemingway and Karen
Blixen. Nairobi is Kenya’s bustling capital city, often used as a
jumping-off point for safari trips. East Africa's most
cosmopolitan city, Nairobi is Kenya's beating heart, an
exciting, maddening concrete jungle that jarringly
counterpoints the natural beauty to be found elsewhere in the
country. The Maasai Mara National Reserve is an area of
preserved savannah wilderness in southwestern Kenya, along
the Tanzanian border. The Maasai Mara is one of the world’s
most famous National Parks and is home to the Great
Migration, together with the Serengeti National Park in
Tanzania. These parks are known for their open short grass
plains with abundant wildlife. Its animals include lions,
cheetahs, elephants, zebras and hippos. Wildebeest traverse
its plains during their annual migration. The landscape has
grassy plains and rolling hills, and is crossed by the Mara and
Talek rivers. The area nearby is dotted with villages (enkangs)
of Maasai people. The Great Migration is a natural
phenomenon determined by the availability of grazing for
wildebeest and zebras. As the rains end in May in the south
eastern part of the Serengeti, the animals start moving
northwest into areas around the Grumeti River, where they
typically remain until late June. Their biggest obstacle, the
crossing of the crocodile infested Grumeti and Mara rivers into
the Maasai Mara, begins in July.

TanzaniaTanzania offers you compelling beauty and nature at her most
extravagant, including Africa’s highest mountain, Mount
Kilimanjaro, standing at 19,340 ft. There are numerous
National Parks in Tanzania, each offering something truly
unique. The Serengeti National Park, a World Heritage Site, is
renowned for its large lion population and is one of the best
places to observe prides in their natural environment. It is also
home to The Great Migration together with the Maasai Mara in
Kenya. The Great Migration returns to the Serengeti around
late October/November as the herds start migrating south
once again. The precise timing of the wildebeest migration is
entirely dependent upon the rainfall patterns each year. The
Ngorongoro Conservation Area is home to the Ngorongoro
Crater, a deep, volcanic crater, the largest unflooded and
unbroken caldera in the world. Lake Manyara and Tarangire
National Park are in close proximity to the Serengeti and the
Ngorongoro Crater. Both parks are smaller and less popular,
but definitely worth visiting. Lake Manyara National Park is a
protected area in Tanzania's Arusha and Manyara Regions,
situated between Lake Manyara and the Great Rift Valley.
Tarangire National Park is a national park in Tanzania's
Manyara Region. The name of the park originates from the
Tarangire River that crosses the park. Arusha, a city in East
Africa's Tanzania, is a perfect gateway on route to your safari
destinations.

RwandaRwanda is a landlocked East African country with a green,
mountainous landscape. Its renowned Volcanoes National
Park is home to mountain gorillas and golden monkeys.
Rwanda is known as Le Pays des Mille Collines (Land of a
Thousand Hills) thanks to the endless mountains in this
scenically stunning little country. Nowhere are the mountains
more majestic than the Virunga volcanoes in the northwest,
and hidden among the bamboo forests are some of the world's
last remaining mountain gorillas. Expert local guides will bring
you face to face with silverback gorillas in the Parc National
des Volcans. You will spend between 3-10 hours tracking one
of the official gorilla family groups through hillside paths,
sometimes crawling through dense vegetation which can at
times be challenging. Under guidance from the best, most
highly trained people for the job, you find yourself face-to-face
with something that seems so unequivocally human, it takes
your breath away. Kigali, the capital, is safe and sophisticated.
