Welcome to Kenya.

Great content

Thanks VP. I am glad you found it useful. Your subscription is really appreciated.

Thanks for the encouragement. Kenya is truly beautiful and has a way of leaving you with memories.

It's not a bad month but it will have rained in September and will still be a bit lush. You don't run a risk of getting stuck but the grass may still be tall. Go for it. I personally went for a safari a few weeks ago and it was raining... I saw a large number of animals. You need to make sure you get a good guide. He will be invaluable especially with spotting rare to find animals.

Im trying to Plan a trip! What part of Africa? And if you don’t mind about how much is your tour? I’m trying to find a mid tier tour that’s not too expensive but has comfortable ride. Please let us know how it goes! Enjoy!

I am going to Kenya and Tanzania on an 11 day guided tour. I added two days to the beginning to recover from jet lag. I also added two morning hot air balloon rides at about $400 each. (I signed up for one and then fretted I would miss the experience if the weather was bad that day, so I signed up for both. lol) The total trip, with air fare from Chicago and trip insurance , was a bit over 8K. I’m excited, and anxious!

If you can't change the time to the July-September window, I would encourage you to still go. You will face more challenges finding the big cats because of the tall grass but there are many people who have been lucky and were able to see many of the animals they were hoping to see.

There are great times to go on Safari, and the rest are ok times to go on Safari. You may not have as great an experience as when you green the best times but you will still have a great adventure. If May is when you're available do it. The thing about me is around that time is when Kenya's receiving a lot of rainfall and the tall grass may make it more difficult to spot some of the animals. However you will still see animals and still have an adventure but may not see all the big five. A good tour guide would help to make sure that you have a great time even if it's not a great season.

March is not the best month because of the rain but you will still see animals. Some will be more difficult to spot but you will still have a good Safari. I am currently on Safari in Ol Pajeta conservancy and even though it's rainy, I have seen lots of animals. Especially rhinos

@@EastAfricaTravelTips thanks yes this the reason why we r not sur coming in Mars, are they big long days of rains or just few rains sometimes on early March ?

Weather here is unpredictable but March does not have a lot of rain. April is when the rainy season starts in earnest. There may be a bit of rain but not much.

@@EastAfricaTravelTips yeah climate changing is bot helping:( so March not the best month but not to avoid. Thanks your chanel is really helpfull ❤️

Planning for 6th to 15th March - is it advisable?

End of December is good but very expensive. Kilimijaro is always cloudy and usually "asleep" in the mists. My favourite all-round preferred time is January. Less crowds, not too hot, usually drier, better pricing and good wildlife viewing.

@@paulburley7993 thank u so much ..

August and September are the very best months to go on safari in East Africa

December is slightly rainy and it's just at the end of the short rains. this means that the grass will be tall and will make it difficult to spot a few of the big 5. You should still go if you're booked but try your best to find a very good tour guide. These will be invaluable especially during this season.

That's in the middle of the long rains season. You may be lucky and it has not started raining.

June is usually cold and usually still green. This means that the animals will have lots of watering holes to drink from and may not congregate in a few hotspots where the action happens. The grass will also be tall so you may find it a bit difficult to find smaller wildlife like the big cats: With that said, there are a few advantages to coming during this season: The first is that you are likely to get a great price for your safari since there are fewer travelers at this time. The second is that there will be less crowding especially in popular places like the Mara. You will still see lots of animals and the experience will still be breathtaking but it will not be as optimum a time for a safari as the dry season of July, August and September. If June is the time that works for you, do it. You will definitely have an adventure.

I do not organize any trips but I would encourage you to check out >> www.safaribookings.com/?P23BZVD& Check for companies that have great reviews and read through the reviews to find one that suits your budget. I also encourage you to reach out to a few for quotes so that you can compare them.
